Very conveniently located a minute walk away from kyoto station. People complain that the hotel is small, but a friendly reminder that youre in japan and not paying much to stay at an APA hotel. It's literally for leaving your luggage, showering, and sleeping. Your day is meant to be spent outdoors exploring or tending to business. For what we paid, it was more than enough, clean, quick check in and out. Rooms were clean and swrvice was good. We tried out a non APA hotel around the same price range in a different city and it was a huge regret.

The room is so tiny so if you have big luggage you have to find a way to make it fit. The breakfast has a lot of option and the parking is easy to find.

Small hotel room but convenient

The room was small but clean. The hotel is within walking distance of Kyoto Station so it's very convenient if you want to take an early train out of Kyoto.
