What guests are saying:
Everything is Perfect!!
those people are very nice and helpful. and there are a supermarket and familymarkt near the hotel. very good
Very clean and convenience, it is worth to live for travel
Good location(located in central kyoto), near to bus station which is great to access to many attraction places. Couple of convenience store near by and a huge shopping area about 3 bus stops away(walkable too). The room is small as expected but good enough for me.
Great location and super clean. There is a laundry room in the lobby and bus stop outside hotel. Lots of restaurants nearby. I plan to come back. Single rooms are a great deal for Kyoto! Love it!
It's safe for solo traveler and the tourism spot are very easy accessible from hotel. There are many restaurants around the hotel as well.
Loved my entire stay here. Though room was small, as with all Japan hotels, it had the basic amenities.

Nice hotel, friendly staff.
Room are great but a bit small when you have big luggages.
The location is good, however if you want to walk from the Kyoto station you will need at least 30min and it can be long with your luggages. Consider buying the Bus Pass which is worth from 3rd ride.

Terrible ”
We stayed for 2 nights in this hotel. We had booked a double room.
The first room we were shown was tiny, dark and looked like a prison cell. I refuse to stay there and we were given a slightly better room.
It was at best a single room, you could only access the bed from one side and my partner has to climb over me to go to the bathroom at night.
There was no room for the luggage and neither the TV remote nor toilet remote were working.
None of the staff spoke any English. The dryer in the laundry was defect.
I would actually like some of my money back as £100per night for this dump is outrageous.

Clean and comfortable. The location is what I like the best. There's a coffee shop on the first floor in the same building, a convenience store just a minute away, a 24 hour open restaurant in the next building, and a local shokudou across the street. What I need after a whole day sightseeing is all around here. Nice.

I've stayed two night here, there's bus stop nearby and near Karasuma bus stop, where I can take the bus to almost every sightseeing spots.There's a restaurant downstairs and a Japanese dinning hall
just across the road. In the night is very quiet and I can sleep well.
But sometimes there's a little bad smell in the bathroom (I've ordered no-smoking room) and the smell would only in the bathroom so I think it's OK.
The staffs here are very nice and cute, they'll try their best to communicate with me and trying to chat with me. :)

Hotel is located at the city center that is easy to travel to attractions. The room is large compared with the hotels in Japab charging at the same rate. It provides lots of stuffs in the room including two bottles of water everyday. However, some furnitures are unnecessary taking up room space.
