The holiday home is equipped with 2 bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave and a toaster, a washing machine, and 1 bathroom with slippers and a hair dryer. Providing free private parking, this 2-star holiday home also features free WiFi. The holiday home offers bed linen, towels and laundry service. It was great having a whole house to stay at in the countryside near Lake Biwa. The owner is very friendly and helpful. It‘s an old house that has been refurbished and nicely decorated. It‘s super cosy with a kotatsu, lots of rugs and the futons are very comfortable. It‘s in a quiet neighbourhood so you can have a good night‘s sleep. The nearest restaurants are in a beautiful samurai town, about 3km away. The bathroom and toilet are modern and everything is very clean. I would like to stay again!

Inase Otsu Machiya Bed and Breakfast, a property with a garden and a shared lounge, is situated in Otsu, 10 km from Daigo-ji Temple, 11 km from Shoren-in Temple, as well as 11 km from Samurai Kembu Kyoto. Featuring garden and inner courtyard views, this bed and breakfast also comes with free WiFi. Kiyomizu-dera Temple is 12 km away and Mount Hiei is 14 km from the bed and breakfast. It is really like living in a japanese house. The common room for tea and gathering was excellent. Too bad we arrive late at night.

The washing machine, bath, toilets, kitchen appliances, everything was top notch and had clear easy directions in English and multiple languages for all the guests. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean and spotless, everything looked very new. For the location, we walked to the canals, the ropeway, la collima, and the JA market and stores. Kikis bakery and café was delicious!!
