The hotel is very good overall, but the room has a step at the entrance to the bathroom that becomes uncomfortable over time. Having to go up and down that step, especially during the night, puts strain on the knee joint.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The location of the hotel was really good. It was within walking distance to Kyoto Station (2-3 mins walk) and the Porta Dining area in the Station. There are a lot of malls close to the hotel if shopping is your thing. The room was too small for two people. Being able to get on and off the bed from only one side was not ideal for less agile individuals. Perhaps this size room could be offered only as a single. It was not as clean as other hotels I’ve stayed at. Staff were somewhat helpful and friendly.

The staff was very helpful and friendly. It was easy to check in the room was clean. It’s very close to the train station which is the main reason for choosing this hotel. The bathroom is small but has everything you need. The room layout makes the most of the space.

Was a lovely hotel and staff was very friendly and welcoming. The rooms are very extremely small nothing staff can do about that but note that for if you book. Japan are known for small rooms but we were surprised at how small. This place was located 1 block from Kyoto station and walking distance to a lot of shopping and food.
