Great location, great stuff with good English, and nice big rooms with very huge beds (king size!). The hall where the rooms at ground floor (1F) are can smell of smoke as the smoking area is nearby; I did not enjoy that, but after running the AC in the room for a while it disappeared from the room itself.

Very polite and friendly hotel staff helped us in every situation.The rooms are small, clean and useful. The location of the hotel is very good, 150 m from the metro stop. Many places you would like to visit in the city center are within walking distance. We left the hotel very satisfied, thank you.

Compact room but great use of the space. I appreciated the mini fridge, slippers and night gown that were free to use with the room. There was also a microwave in the lobby along with free coffee. I communicated just fine with the staff in English, they were accommodating for storing luggage early before checkin. The lobby was nicely decorated. I love the giant stone/moss ball.

The hotel staff were polite and very welcoming. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. However, the hotel is located in a small alley, so it’s a bit of a walk to the nearest subway and bus stops, as well as to the closest convenience store. The in-room amenities were limited—basic items were provided, but there were no more detailed touches such as hair ties, a comb, or bath salts. The coffee in the lobby wasn’t very good, and there were no other welcome drinks available. Additionally, the refrigerator in the room did not have a freezer function, so it wasn’t possible to store ice cream. Overall, it is a comfortable hotel that meets basic needs. Thank you for the hospitality.

The hotel is within walking distance to the Karasuma Line and bus stops, making travel and sightseeing easy. However, the bathroom was quite dirty, there were some brown stains near the drain, and the shower curtains had black spots/mold on them. Would choose another hotel next time we visit Kyoto.

Not very good English at front desk

Must prepaid the whole stay, meaning you cannot move out even you are not happy with the hotel in the early stay. Difficult to communicate with front desk for in English for assistance. Better to Google.

エントランスは京都っぽく落ち着いた雰囲気。 お部屋も無駄なものがなく、実際の広さよりは広く感じました。 物を置くスペースがもう少しあると良いかな。あと、バゲージラックを置いていただけると便利かなぁと思いました。
