The room was small but well designed. The flooring in the toilet room should have been tiled instead of the textile flooring. There were stains in the toilet room floor which could not be cleaned. Otherwise we are very happy with the hotel, front desk staff and especially liked the tea/coffee/juice drinks and bread (breakfast) in the lobby.

The room was clean and modern, with a convenient location. Although there was a window, it was dark. Since most of the day was spent sightseeing in Kyoto and the area though, this wasn’t a problem. Having breakfast provided was also convenient, with a mix of Asian and western options. Careful with late checkout fees.
