The place was great. Very nice atmosphere, with large cozy living room in authentic homely japanese style. The room was perfect. Very comfy. There are many nice touches and details. The style is homogenous, harmonious and simple. Everything is well organised, pleasant and relaxing.

Unfortunately, we received a poor welcome. The host looked at me with stupor when I entered and enquired if he works here. His reply: "I think so." That sort of stroppy remark already rubbed me the wrong way. It comes off as mocking. Thereafter, he sort of checked us in two hours early but didn't offer to let us into our rooms, so we huddled outside for a while, until he changed his mind. I find this very odd and inhospitable. So I didn't feel welcome there. I have been a superhost on Airbnb myself and I would never treat my guests this way. For this reason, I wouldn't stay there again because he makes me feel unwelcome. Too bad because the place is impeccable otherwise.

As soon as you walk through the door, you are greeted from the friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. The open area on the first floor is very spacious with everything you would need. the bedrooms are also nice and comfy. We suprisingly liked the shared bathing facilities--everything was very clean and well kept. The two hosts were very kind. We spoke with both of them and they also helped us work the washer.

The rooms are on the smaller side, however, it is a very common occurrence and it did not affect our experience at all. There was also a slight musty odor when entering the room. We left the window open to air it out.

The futons are quite confortable. Nice common area with kitchen and tables downstairs. Enough shower rooms and toilets so that there is never a need to wait. Nice with a young kid as there are some games in the common area.

Cost of laundry + drying was much more expensive than at other hostels. Requires a small fee for making reservations, for example restaurants. This service was always free at other hostels. This is inconvenient because restaurants are often full. Bedroom is quite small, difficult to accomodate the luggages. Location is a bit far from places to visit and not so many interesting restaurants around. But I guess that is because Kyoto is very big with interesting areas all scattered.

Fujitaya BnB provides a truly warm environment. The lovely owners and staff, as well the shared spaces and kitchen amenities create a wonderful atmosphere for families, solo travelers and groups of friends to enjoy a healthy community. It is also a very clean and cozy air bnb with basic amenities in rooms and shared bathrooms. Remember to bring your own toothbrush and. toothpaste, plus slippers. Some group activities are provided occasionally, as well such as the Takoyaki party we enjoyed on my first evening, and yet when alone time is desired, it is honored. I enjoyed myself so much that I extended my stay by two more days! Thank you SO MUCH Fujitaya BnB 💞☺️

The lady who runs the place is absolutely Devine and I cannot say enough good things about her. She's knowledgeable, professional and would always greet you with a huge smile. The place is clean and it's got a lot of toys for all aged kids there including board games for bigger kids (adults). You can borrow bikes there and even borrow runners for 500 yen a day. Really good shower.

It advertised as an Airbnb but I would call it more like a hostel. The bathroom facilities were shared. There's nothing wrong with it at all, I just wasn't expecting it.

I really enjoyed my time at Fujitaya BnB. Staff is really friendly and also living on site so it's easy to ask them for recommendations. The overall vibe of the BnB was great as well and the common room is a nice place to chill. The kitchen was great and had all the necessities to cook a basic breakfast every day (even dinner but I didn't try). The room is simple but spacious and the bathrooms are clean. Bicycles are available for rent at affordable prices which is a nice bonus.

Nothing

Our stay at Fujitaya BnB was exceptional. The accommodation is comfortable, modern, and full of charm. Everything was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated. Its location is perfect for exploring the city’s main attractions. The check-in and check-out process was smooth and easy. The host was always kind and attentive, making us feel truly welcome. We highly recommend Fujitaya BnB to anyone looking for quality, comfort, and an authentic experience.

Great value room in kyoto. Bnb in the title a bit misleading for us Europeans if you don't look further into it. It's not bed and breakfast! It's a doable walk from 2 local train stations and the buses are dirt cheap! Buses stop almost at the door.

Nothing bad really. Heating worked a treat. We knew beforehand about the shared bathrooms and communal seating areas so that was ok. Bed was comfy. Showers were good.

We really like the common room, where we can meet and talk with other guests, sharing experiences and places that interesting to visit. We also appreciated the kind gesture of the owners, we arrived in the morning (using night bus),while the check in time is 4pm. We only expect that we can put our luggage, resting in the common room and using the toilet/ bathroom. Surprisingly, they offer us to enter our room, as our room is ready at that time. It really make our life much easier, as my daughters need to take a nap after a night bus from Tokyo. Toilet and bathroom are also very clean. It is easy to go around the city, you can walk to the station or taking bus which is very close to the place as well. Fujitaya gave us the warmth of a home, we definitely will come back again in the future.

The upper bed is too low, sometimes it hit the head, for those who sleep in lower bed.

Hosts are really nice and willing to answer all your questions. More tourist info all around the lobby and even a neighborhood map in the room. Their rental bike is a great option, though bus stop for train station and Kinkakuji is nearby. Fully equipped self service kitchen, all well signed. Great common dining area. Very clean shared bathroom, as well each of the shower cabinets. Posibility to leave your luggage before checkin or after checkout. Convenient store around the corner, supermarkets and many restaurants just a walk away.
