It was very easy to communicate with the owners about the property in perfect fluent English, and the house was very nice and pretty, stocked with amenities, and was a relaxing and comfortable space for my partner and I to use while exploring the Gion area and taking nearby transit to other parts of Kyoto! The air conditioning worked well, and the washer/drier was highly convenient for laundry purposes. The second floor might be difficult for anyone with mobility disabilities to access, since the stairs are a bit steep and narrow, and even a little slippery. I would recommend this space to anyone in general though, and wish I could've stayed longer than two nights!
