Gion Shirakawa No Yado

3 rooms, one with a big bed, one with two single beds, and another with a living room with a table, perfect for family outings. The small river in front of the door is especially popular with kids, and there are ducks🦆. It's just opposite Chion-in Temple. It's also close to the main road. Very convenient. The key point is that the landlord will send an email before check-in, notifying you to pay the accommodation tax and register before you can get the password. I also got it on the day of check-in. Neither the agent nor Ctrip could contact the landlord, but fortunately I completed these procedures smoothly on the day of check-in. To be honest, I was still very worried. Fortunately, it was safe.

Next to Chien-in Temple, there is Shirakawa River in front of the door, with willows hanging on it. There is a single-wide stone bridge on the left, a small bridge for cars on the right, and a waterfront platform on the opposite side. People passing by can't help but sit down and take a look. Take a break. Extremely peaceful and peaceful. We walked back and forth on the stone bridge countless times and took many beautiful photos. The first floor of the Machiya is a kitchen, bathroom, shower room, washing machine with dryer and a large bed room. The second floor is a living room and a twin room. The decoration is very new, very comfortable and clean. Two shortcomings, 1. There are no tables and chairs on the entire first floor. I don’t know why there are no tables and chairs next to the kitchen, but a large closet for hanging clothes is designed. You can either stand while eating or carry it upstairs; 2. The upstairs There is no bathroom on the street, so you have to run down to the bathroom in the middle of the night. However, despite its flaws, I still like this house very much. If you come to Kyoto, you must experience a machiya, so this is the place. In addition, this hotel will send you an email to ask you to pay the Japanese tax at the store, register all the check-in information online, and notify the other party before it will send you the check-in password. I did it late and found out one day in advance. Yes, I haven’t received an email the next day after it was done (the day I checked in), and I couldn’t contact the store, nor could Ctrip! Fortunately, Ctrip finally contacted me. It was a false alarm. Everyone arrived in front of the door, but a pile of luggage couldn't get in. This was the first time I encountered it. So remember to check the store’s information early and get rid of these things early.
