Response from the manager Dear JA12345678, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review of your stay in our "Anzu-an" machiya house! We are pleased to hear that you were able to take advantage of your machiya houses's location during your visit to Kyoto. As you have pointed out, there are many traditional architectural features within this machiya house that guests (who are used to Western-style houses) may find surprising. The steeper stairs, tatami-floor seatings, and lower entranceways -- however, we hope that all of these charming features were able to add to your experience living in an authentic Kyoto house! You and your guests were truly a pleasure to have at "Anzu-an", and we look forward to welcoming you back to Kyoto in the very near future. Kind Regards, The Machiya Residence Inn Kyoto Staff
