Great location, just opposite the lake. Quiet and comfy. Eclectic decor which I loved, a tremendous amount of thought gone into this place, totally unique. Owners very accommodating and helpful. I prefer to stay in family owned enterprises and this definitely exceeded my expectations. Compact but beautifully executed

I love the whole aesthetic and Japanese style, not to mention all the anime! As an Anime lover myself it was so much fun finding all the hidden figurines such as Attack on Titan flying over head or Vegeta protecting me in the bathroom. The staff was amazing and friendly. Spoke limited English and even surprised me with a strawberry sundae for my birthday!

First of all, you must be charmed by the decoration and personality on display at Koke-Musu-inn. The place is alive with character. Then the staff welcomes you with their own charm and the package is complete. I found the care taken to provide a comfortable stay very impressive. The rooms were clean and well-maintained throughout my stay, and the location was great! I was glad to have found an easily accessible stopping point outside of Kyoto city. Much easier to decompress at night. I look forward to my next trip to Japan and hope I’ll get to stay there again.

Absolutely the coolest place we have ever stayed! A very inventive and unique treatment on a traditional Japanese house. Cool things everywhere. The host family was very hospitable and ready to help with anything we needed. Very convenient to Otsu and Ishiyama area. We will certainly return here again! Very artistic setting with both modern and traditional Japanese treatments!

古道具とフィギュアがたくさん綺麗に飾られていて、夢の空間の様。それぞれのお部屋ごとにコンセプトの違う構造でデザインされており、ごちゃごちゃした感じは無くて、とても落ち着ける過ごしやすくて清潔なお部屋でした。 宿の方も親切で丁寧。 また、余談になりますが　宿とは直接関係はありませんが、宿から少し路地を入ったところに有る駐車場　のお隣のお寺、響忍寺さんの方もとても親切。あと同じ駐車場を借りてらっしゃる方も　とても親切で、近隣の方にも恵まれているなぁ　と思いました。 　また、他のお部屋にもぜひ泊まらせて頂きたいです。(*ΦωΦ)

鬼滅の部屋に子供二人は大喜びで登ったり色々フィギュアを探し回ったり、ロフト奥の隠し部屋にテンションが上がっていました。 部屋内の２階へのはしごは真っ直ぐタイプで２箇所から登れました。 キッチンや鍋や食器、トイレ、１人用の五右衛門風呂風(身体洗いもその中で)がついていました。 ３キロ洗濯乾燥５００円のコインランドリーも施設内にあり、夏は嬉しい。乾きがいまいちでしたが、追加乾燥＋１００円もあり◎(あとから気がつきました…) やはり口コミや施設説明文にもあるように、部屋内も小さな階段や段差が多く子供がふと踏み外してしまい何回かひやっとしました。 細かい作りなのでホコリもたまっていたり、冷蔵庫内のホコリや小さな蚊？みたいなのが死んでいたので、こちらで掃除してから使用しました。 あとDIYなので家具のネジなどもゆるんでいたりでした。 大人2名、小学生生低学年1名、年長1名で、宿泊料19000ほど＋消費税＋子供分小学生分？2727円＋朝食代一人1500×3.ライト朝食1000円で３万程かかりました。 この人数でこの値段だとかなり狭くコスパも△と感じました。 隠れ部屋２階で寝るのは、クーラーしてても、乾燥と暑さでしんどかったです。 あと呼び鈴みたいなのもあれば嬉しかったかな。 でも子供は泊まる＋遊び場が一緒になったかんじで喜んでいました。 オーナーさん夫婦？はとても感じのいい方でした。ありがとうございました！

家族4人がグッスリ寝れます。

コンパクトだけど、上手に空間を使ってる感じで私は好きでした。主人は寝返りで膝をぶつけたりしていたので、コンパクトととるか狭いととるかはその人の感覚かなとも思います。大人二人と小学生高学年二人でもグッスリ寝れましたよ。インテリアが凝ってて、良かったです。
