Location is okay. A bit of a walk to the main area and takes about the same amount of time by bus. No bowls provided in apartment, which we would have liked.

Perfect for a 5-night stay. We were able to explore Kyoto and take day trips, unwind in our room and then go out again at night. In-room laundry is awesome.

Quaint and comfortable place to stay. It felt more like an apartment than a hotel, which I really liked. Being able to do laundry during my trip was a big plus. Great location—close to trains and all the main attractions in Kyoto.

We really enjoyed our stay here while visiting Kyoto. The hotel concierge were very friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious enough for two people and I liked that we had a little kitchen area as well as a washer. Train station was nearby and location of hotel itself was central to a lot of the touristy spots we were visiting. Added bonus of having a Yamato luggage service directly across from the hotel (which I did not find out until right before our trip)!! Would definitely stay again when visiting Kyoto!

This hotel was perfect for our stay. The room was clean and came with a kitchenette and washing machine w/ 2 soap pods. The bathroom was more roomy than the other hotels we’ve stayed at. The room temp was adjustable and able to keep up with our needs. The bed and bedding were comfortable providing a good nights sleep. It was close to restaurants and shopping. Highly recommend.

The staff was helpful with holding our bags prior to check in, and even brought hem to our room for us. The room itself was a bit tight for four, and they had a shelf at forehead height in the walkway area that could have been a bad head bump if you get up in the night to use the bathroom.

Property was about a 10 min walk to a good shopping area. Rooms were very clean, but a bit on the small side if you have large suitcases and use the sofa bed.
