56 reviewsI had made this reservation in 2019, but was unable to come due to the COVID situation. But the owner, Tamy-san (Mrs Tamy) was gracious about keeping my booking until Japan opened up for tourists in 2023. I am so very glad I decided to come in 2023 and I am grateful to Tamy-san. These are the things I loved: The room ( I had a double room) was meticulously clean. Tamy-san vacuumed the room daily, gave a fresh towel, emptied the trash can in the room and changed bed sheets every 3 days or so. She also daily cleaned the shared bathrooms ( two rooms shared one bathroom) and the common shower room downstairs. There was a small pantry equipped with a microwave and small toaster/oven along with cups, spoons, coffee & tea, sugar etc. I was pleasantly surprised by all she provided because I had come equipped for all eventualities. Tamy-san is a very kind lady who makes guests feel welcome; using her English as much as possible, she tries to help with any question (in addition to all the information provided on the front desk and the bulletin board. She also gives little gifts croissants, and Japanese tea (to drink there as well as a going away present). Tanakaya is located in a quaint quiet alley. I enjoyed walking around the area in the evening observing beautiful geisha ladies passing by. The location allowed easy access to many restaurants & bars, markets, shops, and was in walking distance to many impressive temples. There was also easu access to busses, and metro lines. I felt very much at home at this simple abode. The only inconvenience for me, probably, was getting used to working on the computer at a small low table while sitting on the floor. That was mainly because I had a weak back which required constant back support. All in all, I loved my 6 nights in Tanakaya. I was moved when the very kind Tamy-san organized a taxi for me to go catch the airport limousine and then stood outside with me at the street corner (not very warmly dressed!) to make sure I got to the airport on time. I was truly sad to leave Kyoto and Tanakya. Tanakaya surely will be the place where I will sleep on my next visit. Highly recommended.
