Second time I’ve stayed here. The hotel is in a great location, quiet neighborhood yet close to transportation and shopping areas. The rooms are clean. Breakfast was excellent. Having washer/dryer in the room was a big plus.

Really helpful staff. The hotel has a good location near public transport and generally the facilities are nice. The rooms are quite small and ours was not as clean as I'd hoped with stains on walls.

Staff were very professional. I liked the spacious 2 double beds. Also lobby was very nice with coffee bar and sparkling water station. It has a relaxing feel and also the pamplets available for Kyoto’s main attractions were helpful. Location was great for few minutes walk to many restaurants including Nishiki Market and various train station.

Hotel was in a great location. Staff were lovely and very helpful especially organizing a day of golf for our group (highly recommend Kyoto Ohara golf course 10/10). The bathroom was a bit musty smelling. Another great help were the washer/dryer in our room. Soap was even provided.
