Very clean, cozy and comfortable place. The hosts always made sure we had mineral water in our room, and new towels everyday, even if we never asked for it.

We absolutely loved our stay at Haruka house! We felt very warmly welcomed by our hosts who gave us great tips for Kyoto and were very helpful and warmhearted throughout our stay. Couldn't think of a better place to stay in Kyoto. And of course the cats were adorable! The location was also very convenient near several public transportation lines to the key sights. The calm neighbourhood gave a great escape from the buzz of the city.
