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.

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
