We liked the no-frills traditional tatami room with futon - it was perfect for us. The bathroom and toilet were comfortable and clean. The location whilst not in a lively area is pretty ok - 10mns by foot to main station, 5mns by foot to convenience store/bus/subway.

The entrance and common area (which seems to be not in use) is very messy and puzzling. As if the real entrance is somewhere else but we can never find it. Very strange in a Murakami-esque way. But the owner/manager (the only person we encountered during our whole stay there) is kind and discreet, and we ended up adding 2 days to our stay.

Good location about a ten-minute walk from Kyoto Station. Room was clean, as was the private bathroom, and different because it had traditional floor mats and futons to sleep on. I found the futons comfortable to sleep on, but not everyone would. Seems like it used to be more of a hostel, since there was a big table that some groups used for eating, as well as a shared microwave and washing machine. And while there were no dolphins at Tabist Sparkling Dolphins Inn Kyoto, there are two turtles in the entrance room!

Nothing. It was a great location and a great deal for my two grown children and me. Not luxurious, but clean, quiet, and friendly, which is all we needed.

Facilities and rooms were clean, change of towels available everyday. Staff and host were commendable and honest. They had found a sum of our money left in the room accidentally but they kept it and returned it to us when when we got back in the evening late. Host was courteous to prepare a stool for my mother to remove her shoes when we return from our site seeing every night.

None.

Everything in the room was sparkly clean and well-maintained. We enjoyed sleeping on the tatami floor. Owner could speak English.

There was no hand soap in the room. The owner was very strict about cleanliness and when to wear shoes, slippers, etc., which is good for keeping the hotel clean, but made it a bit stressful at times. The breakfast room could use a bit of tidying.

japanese ryokan/tatami experience on a budget! great value for the experience. The guy who managed the accommodation and apparently also lives below is very helpful.

Nothing significant in our stay. But I could picture some issues arising in the lobby if everyone checks in/checks out at the same time as it is just too tight. Fortunately for us we didn’t go through this.

The room was very clean, great location near to a 7/11 and the train station. Just one stop away from the main kyoto station so great for travelling. Loved the japanese style room.

The entrance to the building is messy, but once you are shown to your room it is a completely different feel. Very clean, neat and well kept.

The hotel is located within a short walk from the train station and bus terminal. Bus stop is just opposite the hotel. which is handy at night. Use of the lounge area on the ground floor is great.

Nothing .

Excellent value for money and it was fun to stay at a cute minimalistic Japanese inn. Loved the tatami beds!

Would have preferred some more basic facilities but overall all was fine.
