Easy to check in/check out, good size room for our group ( 3 adults 1 kid in 3 beds). 15 mins walking to Kyoto Station is a bonus as we cannot bring large suitcases on the bus. Also 10mins walk to JR Tofukuji for easy transport to Fushimi Inari and Nara. A few buses can take you to Kiyomizu Temple and Gion district. Vending machine near reception with free tea/coffee/ onion soup City tax 220Y/person/night, outdoor spa 500Y/person (need to book with reception) We booked the outdoor spa on Friday night and got it all for ourselves. It's on level 6 but no view for privacy reason. Nothing fancy but it was relaxing after a day full of walking.

Our room was in front of the elevator so it was noisy with people moving in/out. People leave rubbish bags and used towels outside of their rooms for cleaning and collection, look messy and unclean in the morning.

Nice hotel with friendly and accommodating staff. No front desk staff other than during check-in/check-out but easy to find someone to help you. Location is not great but that is why you pay a little less than you owuld for hotels closer to Kyoto station.

Nothing - knew ahead of time that the location was not ideal.

Good value for money. Convenient location. Very close to the station. There’s also shops and restaurants around. Nice area and good facilities inside the hotel. Me and my friends we worried that there’ll be mold in the bathrooms after reading some reviews but to our surprise there wasn’t any in the 2 rooms (out of 3) we’ve booked as they’d painted and done some work in the rooms recently so it was kind of covered/removed. Anyway, it was visible. However, in one of the rooms there was mold and even if you couldn’t see it you could spell it. The whole room smelled like it.

As mentioned above, there was some mold (not visible but you could smell it). The room had a bit of a weird smell generally. It was also a bit noisy as the hotel is on the main street. Saying this I think it’s still a good place to stay, affordable and its value for money for sure. Despite this I still recommend it!

it’s really clean, and basically has everything, Lawson is just opposite

the room is really small, my medium size luggage has no place to open up, but other than that all is well

It's an okay price for the facilities and room provided! There's a bus stop right outside with buses to places like Yasaka Pagoda and Sannenzaka which is neat if you want to go early to snap some awesome photos! The JR Tofukuji station is an 11 minute walk away across a river bridge which makes for a nice morning stroll too.

The nearest subway station (Kujo) is about a 10min walk away, so not exactly the most convenient. But the aforementioned bus stop is great. Also would wish if room cleaning was done every day like other hotels, but i guess it helps with sustainability that they only help with changing the towels and clearing your trash

The triple room was large with big beds by Japanese standards. Very clean. Satisfactory facilities.

Staff were a bit less involved compared to other hotels we stayed jn Japan. I asked for an extra pillow but was refused saying all the rooms were booked so they couldn't give me one extra pillow, which seemed a bit incredulous. Public bath was chargeable even for the guests of the hotel.

Super comfy beds and the useful free toiletries. The bedroom was a decent size and so were the beds. Great price and staff were very polite and friendly.

The bathroom is like a little plastic cubicle room within the bedroom and you have to step up to enter which if you're not paying attention means you stub your toes or step down awkwardly when entering and exiting.

- staff speaking English - room with good natural light (even if my room was facing the parking spot, still I liked the light) - warmed toilet seat - they kept my luggage’s before check-in and after checkout (no need to pay for storages) - bus stop 2min

- Not many restaurants options in the area - Only 1 big towel and a very small one for the hair (but they can give you more if you ask, I would recommend leaving 2 in the room already)

There's a laundromat that you can use for a small charge, and free coffee and tea are available for guests in the lobby. The location is close to the Kujo station, and bus stops for the city circle line are just around the corner.

Just be sure to take the bus in the right direction, or you'll be on a half-hour ride just to get to Kyoto station.

Our family was visiting in-laws in Mito and decided to do a quick 2 day trip to Kyoto. We found this hotel and it was very reasonably priced. This was a great room for the 3 of us. For this price you would get a dump of a room in the states but this was clean and had what we needed.

Not much, we knew it was a short walk from Kyoto station and that was fine for us , not a big deal.
