Staying at Sarangbang was quite great. The train stations, convenience store and some other stores are just walkable distance. The staffs were accommodating and the room was good enough for us to stay. Thank you!

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Note it looks like a small takeout restaurant when you look in the door, but there is a wooden sign out front that says guesthouse in small letters. Each floor is a separate room. Good WiFi. Many small paid parking lots within a block of the property. Many restaurants nearby.
Positive:
1. Easy access from kyoto station
2. Easy access to tourist spots
3. Nice ambiance
4. Supporting staff
Negative:
1. For 5 people, 4 beds were not comfortable
2. Could not understand the reason, but room could not get warm enough in spite of 26-27 temperature
Nice big space with big beds. Great shower pressure. Close to transit, but not a lot of restaurant picks. You will be travelling to tourist sites. Very clean. No view.
Very nice owner, but it's more of a guest house. It was hard to check in, we had to wait while Hotels.com tracked him down as there is no reception. Also no parking at all even though the listing says there is. Nice room, nice place, again very nice guy once we tracked him down. This is a decent option but it's not as advertised.
Chung es un excelente anfitrión sin embargo, no limpiaban la habitación solamente cambiaban las toallas y nos pusieron papel de baño solo una vez la siguiente tuvimos que solicitarla, por el calor o no se porque aparecieron dos cucarachas en la habitación.
