“This property impressed me with its exceptionally kind owner, who seems to make all the difference. The location, a bit removed from the central bustle, offers a relaxed neighborhood vibe, and Arashiyama is still easily accessible. Expect a clean, recently renovated space with thoughtful touches.”
