Excellent overall for the price! Convenient, clean and quiet. Does the job. Fantastic breakfast service for only 1000 yen that was better than many restaurants we went to Only thing that bothered me was that there is only one very cramped elevator so you are often crammed inside of it or waiting for a while before it clears up. There are stairs however

Good location and right next to a train station. Many good restaurants nearby. Room was quite cozy, especially the bathroom. Clean, provided fresh towels daily. If you booked to include breakfast, it's quite ample. Amenities (toothbrush, sleeping gown, slippers, etc) provided. Would probably stay again. Staff was excellent.

I am nit picking here but, there is only one elevator for a 10 building hotel. So if you have someone with a handicap or wheelchair it is difficult and takes a long time especially during peak hours and check in/out times. Lastly, the closest smoking section is about 3 blocks away, so that was a big inconvenience.

Fine location only 15 min waking from Kyoto main station and very close to Gojo station taking us to other places in Kyoto with ease. The room was nothing special, seemed kind of standard for Japan. However, we had hoped for a little bit more modern facilities in our room and for the level of cleanliness of especially the bedding to be better. Staff was nice

Only good thing was the breakfast and staff. Terrible beds, expect to get bed bug bites and wake up with a stiff neck and sore back.
