The room was very clean and the staff were very friendly. There are many options for nearby food like starbucks and traditional restaurants, as well as nearby family mart and 7/11 convenience stores. The entire hotel was clean and room service was done often. The room was big and spacious with a big bathroom with a heated bidet toilet. The beds were also comfortable with plenty of light and a big window. Transportation was very close too with multiple bus stops and transit routes. The hotel was also really close to Kyoto Station making transportation and rail transfers easy.

Convenient location at a modest price

The location is convenient, close to Shijo (main street) and subway. The room is typical for a Japanese business hotel: no extra space but configured so that everything fits. Starbucks on the first floor (open 'til 10:30) is convenient. One problem: the WiFi signal in my room drifted in and out.
