The staff was great and very friendly, both receptionists I spoke to spoke English or spoke just enough to help me without an issue. If you're looking for a more quiet hotel that is still close to train and bus lines this is a great option for you. They can also hold your luggage for you if you enter before the check in time.

Great affordable price for a new hotel. Size is bigger than other standard size hotel. Staff is friendly and helpful although English is limited. There is a smoking room if needed. Two x 2in1 washer and dryer provided free of charge. Convenience store and 24hr udon around the corner. Supermarkets10-15 walk. Bus stop close by and easy access to Kyoto station. I would definately book Japaning hotels again. This hotel could use a microwave. At least I didn't see one.

Fue nuestro hotel favorito en las 3 ciudades que visitamos en Japon, el mas amplio y a un precio accesible. La cama es firme pero dormimos muy bien. Hay una tienda de conveniencia a una cuadra y media y el autobus te deja a una cuadra del hotel. Es una zona muy tranquila y caminable, con el castillo Nijo a dos cuadras.

Disliked: Amenities
Habitaciones muy pequeñas con muy poco espacio para las maletas. Cuando reservamos el alojamiento lo hicimos con desayuno incluido, y sin embargo a la llegada nos encontramos con que el desayuno son unos tickets para irte a una panadería cercana y cogerte lo que quisieras siempre que no superara los 600 yenes. En nuestro caso viajábamos con una persona celíaca y al preguntar por otras opciones ya que desayunar en una panadería y ser celíaco no es compatible, no nos ofrecieron otra alternativa, fue entonces cuando preguntamos por una devolución del valor del desayuno que habíamos pagado y nos dijeron que eso tampoco podrían gestionarlo. En resumen, no aconsejamos en absoluto este hotel para quedarse en Kyoto.

Buen lugar

En general la habitación estuvo bien , tal ves camas más chicas en habitación de tres o solo dos camas ya que reduce mucho el espacio. Para tener un área de maletas pero es bueno el lugar
