The location was amazing!! Right next to the busy streets and shopping areas. There’s a close by market. Great friendly staff. The only thing I didn’t Iike was how tiny the room was. Very very crammed space. Only fits one big luggage and one carry on inside room.

Location, location, location. This stay was great for us, the hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. You are less than a block from the main shopping street in Kyoto and within walking distance to some main attractions, access to a metro and bus stop within a block that can take you pretty much anywhere without changing routes. The room is on the smaller side even to japan standards but can't complain.

I enjoyed my stay here, this place is very close to Nishiki market, Ichiran ramen, and the Maikoya tea ceremony. It is very accessible to buses and trains. The hotel offers complementary ice cream. My only complaint was that the refrigerator was not really cold at all, and I was surprised that the hotel does not use a luggage forwarding service.

Cold and efficient. No way to change the air of the bath room, no way to open the curtain. But curtain dark ensuring darkness even during the day. Relatively silent.

The location of the hotel is perfect, but the rooms are very small. The hotel is very clean, and the staff is very friendly. However, it does not serve breakfast. Considering the amount of money you pay, it is very good.
