Very good

With few rooms and a common kitchen (which is very well organized) it's easy to get in contact with other travellers. The rooms are traditional and smells cozy of fresh tatami mats. The guesthouse is located in a nice area with low houses. 20 minutes to walk from the train station.
well the hotel has notice boards everywhere...don't do this ...don't do that. Feels like in school. Also the owner was kinda annoying. Coffee and breakfast is just slice of bread with Jam. which too was over only half of our party could do the breakfast. World cafe which claims to give you 50% off to Yahata guests is also not nearby...quite a walk. You can't do that with your luggage. Check in is only from 4 to 9 pm not anytime after 4 pm which was a bummer since we had to leave our dinner half way to rush for checkin because owner wasn't ready to adjust.
Small traditional Japanese house owned by a gentle couple. Friendly helpful owners with fluent English. Carefully prepared travel info provided.
My husband and I had a private tatami room, it was big enough to fit four people.
Slightly far from the local subway station, but a 10min walk through safe quiet neighborhood is acceptable (midnight also fine).
Highly recommend to travel through Kyoto by bus. Their subway is a big mess and a lot of walking involved.

Very nice staff
I enjoyed my stay at Guesthouse Yahata. It has affordable price with clean rooms. The hotel is located in a very quite neighborhood. It was fun for me to experience tatami the first time. The owner is a very nice lady. She planned a one-day trip agenda with beautiful attractions while I was there. Also, I accidentally left my glasses while I was leaving to Tokyo. It was very kind of her to offered to mail it to my new hostel. Overall, I highly recommend this place.
화장실 세개 샤워실 두개라 시설은 생각보다 좋았고 언니와 아저씨가 매우 친절했음 사람도 별로 없어서 편하게 지냄 개인실은 세명이서 꽉차는 크기로 다다미방 특유의 냄새가 많이 나서 창문을 열고 꼭 환기해야함 익숙해 지면 괜찮았음 시설도 깨끗하고 콘센트도 네개로 넉넉했고 근처에 마트가 있어서 도시락사서 잘 먹었음 조식으로 식빵 잼 버터 커피줌 오사카가 버스역이 사이가 멀고 애매해서 힘들었는데 숙소 근처까지 오는 51번 버스가 잘 다님 그리고 숙소찾기 힘들었음 택시 아저씨들에게 길 물어보면 모른다고 하고 안알려줘서 택시타서 지도 보여주고 가니 5분도 안걸려서 도착함
Hosts were very kind and helpful, the room had a good size and with futons.It was clean. Good for the price.

Fair, reasonable
It's just enough to stay and spend nights. You can't expect lots, but far better than shelterless. You can have a shower, sleep in a room with air conditioner, have a slice of bread in the morning with coffee.
You can also get some information about Kyoto in English.
Guesthouse owner and his wife were so kind and accomodating. I traveled to Kyoto in the off season, so I had the guesthouse pretty much to myself, which was nice. Also, you get the chance to meet other travelers while you stay here, which is always fun as a foreign person in a country. I highly recommend this place and will definitely go back when I return to Kyoto
