Clean, close to station

Our room was larger than our other Japanese hotel experiences. It was clean and so close to the station that it is impossible to miss. Convenient grocery and take away options nearby, as well as restaurants. I was visiting family in Ishiyama, one JR stop away, which was very convenient.

The room was spacious and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful and held our bags since we arrived in Kyoto before check in time. The hotel was conveniently located near a train station and several convenience stores. Only complaint was that the bathroom was on a steep step that was not labeled. My friend and I stumbled on it a couple times before getting used to it.

駅近で、私は車で行ったのですが駐車場も近くて良かったです。 案内も分かりやすく、チェックインも丁寧で良かったです。 ただ部屋ごとにエアコンがないので風量調節だけだったので風量で何とかしのげました。 おトイレが少し小さ目でした。

係員の対応が良く、部屋も清潔でした。朝食の際も係の方が明るく対応され非常に良かったです。 気になったのは浴室の給水のハンドルが水を出した状態で固定されず、戻ってしまうので、洗面や手洗いの際に不便でした。他のアパホテルと仕様は同じなので調整すれば直ると思われるのでお願いしたいです。
