We have a great experience to stay in Ben’s guesthouse. The owner did his best to accommodate my request. The room is clean, the bed is comfortable and it comes with a mini kitchen and washer. Overall, we are satisfy with the booking.

Stated got parking but in the end it was a paid parking. And then when check in still need pay extra 2400 yen? I have been to many airbnb usually just need pay deposit and will return later but this ben's guesthouse need us to pay and no return. In addition, our room is in the fourth floor with to lift. We need to carry 6 of our big luggage up. Very dissapointing

It's a little walk from the station, but there is a convenience store nearby. There were no gowns or other items. It was great to be able to stay at this price.

I feel that it is far away from the lively fortress, and the subway is really far away. If you like taking the subway like us, I don’t recommend it. But fortunately, there are buses available, about 3-5 minutes walk, and taxis are also convenient. , so it’s not bad. The merchants on the shopping street are very kind. Although it is on Kitano Shopping Street, I am really only interested in supermarkets, small grocery stores, and convenience stores. The nearby famous attractions include Kinkakuji Temple and Kitano. Tenmangu Shrine and Nijo Castle are both very close and convenient, but Nijo Castle is quite a distance away. Those with children can go to "Kyoto Aquarium", "Railway Museum", and "Umekoji Park". It's very convenient to take the bus. It can be done in one go.

The facility was clean and nice, but the telephone service was disappointing.
