No hot water but gorgeous
Beautiful small home w incredibly creative mix of traditional interior w some very modern vibes. The Breakfast was delivered To the doorstep between 830 and 9 AM. It was exquisite and extremely awe-inspiring. The see-through floor was a fantastic touch, and the white sand/rock outdoor area w small semi-shallow bath looks stunning BUT the water to the interior (red) bath and this outdoor bath were both cold water. There was a button to automatically fill the indoor bath and the little sign on the wall says it will auto fill warm water. Nope. The outdoor pool only has a single faucet to turn it on, no option to make it hot. This was very disappointing to a romantic night when our only option was cold plunge only. Would’ve been cool if one was hot and the other was cold, especially since there’s a really cool Doorway that connects the two baths! Please check w the owner before hand to find out if they have fixed their hot water problem if you want to use the tub Since there is no staff on site. It’s basically an Airbnb.
I do think the cost was exorbitant compared to other high-end places we have stayed. korinkyo in Kawazana, for example, was around $500 USD And This boutique hotel was everything they said and more. Go look at the pics of this hotel and it is 10 times more than what they even advertise. Incredible can’t believe I paid 2x for this house in Kyoto. Maybe I would not have said anything had the water been hot, cause there is something special about your own place
