Great location!

The location was great, nice and walkable area behind a Main Street. Right by a train station and with a 7-11 and Starbucks just steps away. The hotel was quaint and a mix of modern but still very traditional looking. The rooms were a good size for Japanese Standards but the bathroom was tiny!!! It was great to have a washer/dryer in the room. Everything seemed clean but the carpets were stained in the room and in some of the hallways. Overall a good choice for the price. I would stay here again. 15-20 min straight walk to Nishiki Market.

Good place to stay in central Kyoto, easy to catch trains/subway to all desired destinations. Rooms are small, but typical. Only reason it's not a 5 is the air conditioning wasn't on yet in March, so we cracked the window at night. Most indoor spaces in Kyoto and Tokyo were very hot for us. Get a fan and use it.

Convenient and accommodating

The room was ample in size and location was excellent. Access to the metro system was within a few short minutes walk. 7/11 located right down the street and just a short minutes walk there were several restaurant options as well as shopping options. The staff was very helpful and kind. Highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again.
