Loved our stay here in a corner triple room for family of 3. Decent size room and large beds. Very generous breakfast especially if you love japanese food. Also a free afternoon tea and happy hour in the evening with free drinks and snacks. We loved it so much we booked an extra night at the end. Short walk to kyoto station as well as buses passing by front of the hotel. Staff are friendly and happy. Highly recommend.
