Monthly Rentals in Katano

It is perfect for long stay! If you are a digital nomad, this is the place. It felt like home, the apartment has everything for a long stay, it is comfy, organized, clean and has enough tools for cooking. The neighborhood is lovely, very calm to relax and have a local experience in Japan. The only thing is that everything is far, 16 min walking to the subway station and 10 minutes to the supermarket/family mart. 1 hour by subway to downtown in Osaka or Kyoto/Nara. But for long stay this is not a problem once you have time to enjoy the city and the local neighborhood. Also in sakura season, the park in front of the apartment looks beautiful! There is a laundry room at the building so it is very easy to wash your clothes. Masako was very responsive and helpful all the time. I would definetly come back!

We stayed at Toshie’s designer house for 4 nights. The architecturally fantastic home is in a quiet neighbourhood a short busride from Gakuenmae station, with quick train access to Nara, Kyoto and Osaka. Toshie picked us up from the station, which was appreciated as it might have been tricky to find the house ourselves. She gave us instructions for local transport and amenities within walking distance. Toshie is an exceptional host who is genuinely interested in her guests making sure they have an enjoyable stay. During our visit we needed medical attention and Toshie was extremely helpful with taking us to the hospital and pharmacy. We felt very safe having her as a translator. One night we were able to join Toshie and her husband for dinner and also met their daughter who has a ceramics studio in the house. Thank you Toshie for your hospitality, kindness and generosity. We had an absolutely wonderful time. I highly recommend this house for a unique base to explore the Nara area.

She is so helpful and accommodating! And even helped when we needed help with extending. Thank you so much for the quick and easy accommodation! Will definitely come again! 🥰🥰🥰👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It was an amazing stay for my friends and I. We wanted to be between Osaka and Kyoto for fast travel and it indeed was fast. The only "issue" is to pay attention that there is only one bedroom with 5 beds. To some that could be uncomfortable for multiple genders sharing the space. However that was my fault for not double checking. It was still amazing. I loved the bathtub and its controls. The Takoyaki place near the station was top tier. If I ever was to come back to Hirakata alone I would still rent this Airbnb for myself. It made me feel like I been living in the area for ages. One final note is I love the guest book to write in and draw. I had my own little doodle and saying. So if any of you stay here within the year. Look for the Colorado logo and the cheeky doodle.
