Disliked: Amenities
The property is kind of dated, the beds and pillows were pretty stiff. The location is conveniently near the Kyoto train station. Staff wasn't rude, but they didn't seem welcoming either. Next time I'll try a different hotel.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The hotel was good in public spaces, but room was tired and outdated, only one mains socket, no usb ports, carpet and furniture badly worn. European breakfast options was to say the least poor. Great for eating and drinking locally, even food hall in basement that covered good variety of foods. Location great for getting around Kyoto literally just outside the rail/bus station.

Older hotel but can’t ask for a better location - right across from Kyoto Station. Room was decent sized. Staff was very courteous and friendly. Tons of shopping and dining options nearby. A great base for anyone who plans to visit Kyoto.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel is located at a very convenient location at the Kyoto Railway Station. In addition to excellent rail connections, all forms of transportation including public buses, tour buses and taxis are easily available. There are vast dining options nearby in terms of variety and price. These are the major reasons for choosing this hotel. Plus the hotel counter staff were very friendly, polite and helpful. The room is smallish with the double mattress placed on the floor (Japanese style) with an adequate attached bathroom. As there was no room photos on the website, this took me and my wife a bit of a surprise. It didn’t matter to us as we were out most of the time. It is value for money.
