Positive point: very short distance from station. Near this guesthouse, there's a nice udon restaurant. Room is big enough to rest. Negative Point: short distance from station also means there'll be some noise caused by train. I saw a giant bug on the ceiling at night. Moreover, some electric outlets and little lamp on the bed didn't work. Only outlets in 2 out of 4 beds worked properly. Air conditioner works well, but it barely gets warm. You should pay by cash if you are a foreigner. I saw PayPay QR in there so PayPay may be accepted if you can use.

満足いく宿泊でした。
自転車で行く事を伝えたら、気を利かせてお部屋を用意していただけました。 洗濯もできたし、一人で過ごすにはちょうどいい静かさでした。

若い方や、新しい電子機器に慣れている方には、問題ないとおもいますが、お年寄りや、アナログ世代の我々には、扱いに悩む、場面も何度かあったので、次回利用することあれば、改善されてると助かります。

オーナー様が素晴らしい
駐車場は、施設の付属ではなく、近くのコインパーキングを使うのですが、24時間で600円と大変お安いところを教えていただきました。2段ベッドが2つある4人部屋のベッドを一つ予約しました。結果的に、全員同じイベント参加者がその部屋に集うことになり、楽しく過ごさせていただきました。さらに、少し離れたところにある、オーナー様経営の飲食店に読んでいただき、小さな肉まんやおいしい岩茶をごちそうになり、感激しました。普通サイズの肉まんは1つ200円ということで、朝食用に買わせていただき、さらに、家族土産にも購入させていただきました。家族にも好評でした。今回、知り合いばかりでしたので使いませんでしたが、貴重品を入れるカギがかかるロッカーもありました。湯舟はなく、シャワーのみですが、シャンプー、リンス、ボディソープも備え付けてくれていました。湯船につかりたい場合は、すぐそばにサウナ付きの銭湯がありましたのでそちらを利用すればよいかと思います。オーナー夫妻のお人柄が素晴らしく、次は家族でお邪魔して、京都観光をしようと思っております。写真は、泊ったお部屋ではなく、お茶をごちそうになったお店の写真です。

アットホームな琵琶湖に近いゲストハウス
 アットホームなスペースで、オーナーは穏やかで笑顔がよい女性。日本語はゆっくりめで会話するカンジです。チェックイン前の荷物の預かりも気軽に対応してくれ、親切です。  私は女性ドミトリーを利用。屋根のある外階段からドミ直結。女性ドミ用でトイレ、シャワー、キッチン、テーブル&イスの共有スペースがあり、奥に2段ベットの部屋となり、女子4人分。  キッチン=流し台の奥がシャワー室で、シャワー利用時の着替えで、その時間は他の人が流し台を使えなくなる。二段ベットの下段には薄いカーテンが少しあるが、上段にはない。貴重品ロッカーなし。そして階段のみです。  私が宿泊した時は私を入れて利用者は3人で、適度に会話も出来、楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。

Room(s) didn't match the pictures. It was a bit cold but without working heating. There isn't any reception desk or staff person waiting at the flat despite the fact that it was stated in my confirmation. You can only find a telephone number at the door and the staff person seems to speak only Japanese.
