Pros:

ゆっくりできました
朝食の時に　スタッフの方が丁寧に観光地のことなどお話してくれました

チェックインの時　案内してもらいたかった

キッチンでも食器入れが低すぎておでこをぶつけた

Pros:

昔の町家に泊まれるということでホテルとも旅館とも違う特別感があります。
お風呂は広くてとても使いやすかったことと、化粧水やシャンプー類はハーブ系でとても良い香りでした。あと部屋にあった珈琲やお茶類が滋賀産のものだったし無料でいただける日本酒やワインも滋賀のもので旅気分が味わえて良かったです。

Cons:

町家に泊まれるということで楽しみにしていましたが、値段の割に「・・・」な感じ。

アメニティや調度品はお洒落ですが痒いところに手が届いていない。同行者がTV大好きな高齢の親でしたがタブレット型のTVのスイッチを見つけられず騒いでいました。(裏に小さいボタンがあり確かに分かりづらい)
チャンネル操作(画面タッチ)も家のTVとは違うので最近の電化製品に疎いうちの親のような人には分かりづらいかもと思いました。(トイレの「流す」ボタンも小さい文字且つ英語表記のみ)

風呂場のシャンプー類もなかなか出なくて何プッシュもしなければならず使いづらかった。お洒落にこだわりすぎなのかな？

アメニティはヘアブラシや身体を洗うタオルもないので普通のビジホに比べると不足。

部屋は通りに面しているので車の音が響いて真夜中も目が覚めてしまいました。

チェックインの説明をしてくれたスタッフの方も愛想が良いとは言えず…

普通のホテルとは違った雰囲気を楽しめたのは良かったですが、期待していぶんハードルも上がっていたため、お値段の割に満足度は低くなってしまいました。

Pros:

There are a lot of great things about this hotel. Friendly staff, great location, very clean. I took points off because my room was on the street side and noisy, making it hard to sleep. Also no shower one morning because they forgot to turn on the hot water. On a previous trip, I stayed in a different room that was on the backside of the building and it was great - very quiet. If noise is an issue for you, you might want to check what room you will be in.

Would have been a pleasant stay if it’s not for the almost 24 hours noise. Enjoy the common area for the space for relax
Pros:

Great layout & furnishings

Cons:

We were on the ground floor room along the road. The level of noise particularly from vehicle is pretty bad. I would not have expected to pay that kind of money to stay in a noisy room. Suggest that the windows be insulated.
On top of that, the step divider between the bedroom and toilet can be a safety issue. Just waiting for someone to trip and fall.

Pros:

Very nice room in an old Japanese townhouse, centrally located in a street with other machiya. Nice renovation. Breakfast with local ingredients was delicious and staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Nice lounge facilities.

Cons:

Two minor things:
Unfortunately the music in the lounge was not turned off at night. As my room was just next to the lounge, I woke up at night due to the music and could not fall asleep again due to the bass noise.
Also the credit card machine did not work, meaning I had to pay using a link they sent me.

We spent four wonderful days in the hotel and enjoyed every minute!
Pros:

We love the location. It was quiet clean and had beautiful decor. Staff were super helpful and kind. There was an amazing little happy hour bar set up in the entrance which was very generous and had wonderful home-made sweet treats.

A wonderful surprise.
Pros:

Design.
Coffee and cookies with compliments and the little things.
Breakfast.
One of the lady staff who’s in charge of the breakfast.Shes very friendly and very accommodating.
This Machiya truly felt like home.

Cons:

It would’ve been better if the rate is isn’t as pricey knowing there’s nothing much to see around except on special occasions like Matsuri/festival.
