This property is easily reachable from the Kyoto Station by bus. Less than a 15 minute ride. It is within walking distance of the Nikishi Market. There is a women’s only floor available and can only be accessed with room key. The bed was wonderful. It was able to raise and lower by remote control. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were amazing! There is a kitchen area where you could prepare food. The breakfast was not really worth the price of the ticket. There was yogurt and juice and some breakfast breads. They also served soup for breakfast. There were NO proteins..eggs, bacon sausage. And no fresh fruit. There is a wonderful bakery& cafe within 4 blocks. Definitely worth the walk. Overall, I was very pleased and would stay here again.

Great social stay

Really good social place to stay. Was expensive due to cherry blossom season though and not worth the amount it cost, but outside this season would be good value. Room clean and comfy, bed moves between sofa and bed using control which was fun, only issue is not much room at foot of bed when bed down, tight squeeze to get out of pod. Free tea coffee and hot choc nice and kitchen clean and free to use too

Expensive, over-rated cinematic pod

The cinematic, theatre-pod was over-rated. I could not even get my projector to work, despite help. Another person showed me theirs and it's displayed against the privacy screen/blind for the pod. This moves and isn't straight so you get a very distorted image. You have to play videos from your personal device, which I was not prepared for. I thought there would be a film or TV selection, aircraft-style. The check in process was the most impersonal check-in experience I have ever experienced. My passport was demanded when I asked to drop off my backpack ahead of check in. My bag was picked up by a non-load bearing strap after asking for it to be picked up elsewhere. Later, I was welcomed warmly but the check-in process was relayed in a robot style with a well-versed monologue being shared by a disinterested receptionist. You also have to watch a video lasting several minutes, whilst others wait awkwardly behind you. I had breakfast added to my stay and this was the most surprising aspect of my stay. Keen to leave for a particular train, I handed my tray back to a counter where staff were washing up and thanked them. I was instructed to wash, dry and put away all the crockery, glasses and utensils myself. I have never experienced a place where you have a meal and then expected to clean up after yourself. Otherwise, the best thing was that shower facilities were on the same level as the single-sex bedroom and included a deep bath in one cubicle. The larger bed was comfortable.

I loved my stay at The Millennials! The pods, bathrooms and common areas were all very clean. I met a lot of cool people there and the beer happy hour definitely is great for connecting with others. I don't know if I would get the breakfast again. It's only soup, buns, juice and yogurt. I'm dairy free so could only have the soup and buns with juice. It was good, just very small and minimal. It's more worth it to just go to one of the many restaurants nearby. They let you keep your bags before check in or after checkout which is useful. I would definitely stay again!

Perfect place to sleep.

Brilliant location. Very comfortable bed and was very quiet and so had a perfect nights sleep. The bathroom was spotless and had everything you needed. Did my washing, whilst relaxing in the bath! A great sociable workspace if needed. Loved it and so highly recommend you stay here.

If you have short legs or are not very tall, you can ask for a step in order to get on your bed; we didn't know that and learned about it upon checkin out when I suggested that they offer a step🙂
