We had a wonderful stay here and I wholeheartedly will recommend to anyone thinking of booking this home not to hesitate and book! I guarantee that you will not regret it. The house is cozy, clean, modern but with touches of Japanese aesthetic. The location itself is amazing, just a walk away from so many beautiful places to sightsee in Higashiyama. Many personal touches, like the retro video game famicom, the extra plugs and charges, the english translations stickers on appliance, show that the owner and management are always thinking of their guests. The fully loaded kitchen, the bathroom where you can plug your phone to enjoy music, the super fast wifi, all those extra points have also made for a very comfortable stay for us. Fast responses by both Alex and Chris allowed for efficient communication. Thank you Alex and to the Japan experience team for your kind hospitality, we wish you all the very best!l

The location is excellent, Higashiyama Chaya is a 3-minute walk, Kanazawa Castle (13-minute walk) and Kenrokuen (19-minute walk). The first floor was originally an izakaya, really spacious and cozy. There are 3 rooms on the 2nd floor, all with air conditioning. There are two toilets, one on the first floor and one on the second floor. The bathroom is on the 2nd floor. The washing machine has a drying function, which is very helpful.

Very clean, modern apartment in a great location close to markets, shopping, restaurants and other sites in Takayama. Communication was great with the host. The host even mailed us some important items that we accidentally left in the apartment after our stay. Highly recommend!

Cozy apartment in a quiet residential neighborhood within 10-20 minute walk of many of the main attractions in Kanazawa. Check-in, check-out, and communication with the host was easy. Stairs to the second floor bedrooms are pretty steep, so may not be ideal for small children or elderly. Free parking space is less than a block from the apartment, very convenient. Overall a good stay.

If you want to stay in Kanazawa, it is the best place to stay. The house fits the cityscape, the cleanliness and amenities are also good, so you can make the best memories !

It is very close to Ikebukuro station, there are a supermarket on the 1st floor and two others within 1 minute, so there is no inconvenience at all. Thanks to the next room on the living room, you don't have to worry about your surroundings so it's comfortable. The west sun from the balcony is also beautiful.

The rooms are very clean and the location is very good. You can find a taxi from Kanazawa Station at a little bit higher price. You can also walk or take a bus. The appearance of the house is quaint.  The small courtyard and the Japanese room structure complement each other. Living inside and experiencing the beauty of traditional Japanese style...I had meals with my friends here, had a good time, and the rooms upstairs were nice.  It’s was a really good experience!

This place was perfect for our family of 4! Easy walking distance to all major attractions.

You can enjoy many sightseeing spots such as Kenroku-en Garden, Omicho Market, and Higashi Chaya District within walking distance.

Highly recommend if you are looking for a place in Takayama. I stayed with 4 friends and everyone liked it! I’m very satisfied with the host’s great hospitality. They gave us lots of information about local restaurants and places to visit. Their response was very quick and helpful. The location is convenient, close to the old town. Also the place was very clean and I love the traditional tatami room. Thank you for making our stay much fun! :)

[EN] Highly recommended for sightseeing in Kanazawa. It was in a nice location along the Saigawa River, with a nice interior, good contact, and the value was perfect! I highly recommend it! [JP] 金沢観光にこれ以上ないほどオススメです。 犀川沿いの素敵な立地で、センスの良い内装、マメなご連絡もいただけ、コスパもよく申し分ありませんでした！ 強くオススメ致します！

[EN] The house was close to Higashi Chaya district and can accommodate a large number of people. The managers were very kind telling us about recommended shops nearby. The inn was clean and cozy, and I would love to come back. [JP]東茶屋街に近く、大人数で宿泊できる。付近のお勧めのお店も教えてくれて、とても親切だった。宿は清潔で居心地がよく、また金沢に出掛けたときに利用したいと思った。

Thank you Chris! We had a very comfortable time.  We really enjoyed the trip!

This place was great! Small but very cute. Great natural light. Unbeatable location: convenient to the station and not far from sights, but also in a sweet neighborhood, on a canal, near a great brewery and a bike rental shop. The cleaning was not perfect this time, but maybe it will improve. Overall a great value and a memorable experience!

Highly recommend for a family traveling to Kanazawa. Nice mix of traditional Japanese and Western-style home. Walking distance to the garden and castle. Great bakery a few blocks away that opens early. Communication was smooth. Hope to come again!

We really loved this apartment. Everything was as described: clean, modern, homey all with ideal location and great communication with Chris. Cheap parking is available nearby, and having a highchair was an especially nice touch. The kitchen had a heated floor, and the shower was really nice. Would definitely stay here again

the perfect room, the perfect location, the perfect hospitality, the perfect parking space, the perfect washing machine and the perfect litlle garden. thumbs up for sure.

Very comfortable and we recommend. It seems to be a little old because it is an old Japanese house, but there are some new places because it has been renovated. It was a very comfortable space.

We absolutely loved our stay here! It is a fantastic house in a quiet neighborhood and the garden was so peaceful. The cleanliness, convenience and atmosphere really complimented all that Kanazawa is. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else!

Good location, convenient for sightseeing and shopping. The house was also very clean and very comfortable. The response of host Chris was also wonderful.
