Great location in the Gion District

While I didn't have the full ryokan dining experience here, it was still super-convenient to be walking distance from many of the sights I wanted to see! I only stayed one night, but I wish I had more time to interact with the friendly staff I did meet. Cute fish in the aquarium at the front!

Good to experience something like the traditional Ryokan. Perhaps a sign requesting guests to note that walls are of course thin so could they be more quiet late evening, would help better sleep.

Small but relaxed

The surrounding area was great. We climbed up to the mountain observation deck, I forget the name, sorry. Tons of local shops and still within walking distance to kyoto station(for us anyways, we walked everywhere). The mats were rough to sleep on but they offered us extra blankets to we were able to add some extra padding. Unfortunately no extra mats though. Still a minor language barrier but the staff do their very best to decipher and help if they're able to.

Well kept hostel with helpful staff and very cozy cubicles. The hostel is located about 10-15 minute walk from the train station but it's in the midst of all the cute restaurants and some famous temples. Great location.

Non smoking facility and that's an A+, quiet environment away from downtown. They should offer to change beddings though.

Perfect location, wonderful tatami experience

The stay was good, the only downside is the small size of the toilet. Perfect location, close to city centre, about 15 minutes walk to Pontocho Alley, situated in the peaceful and more traditional side of Gion. Extremely friendly staff is a plus point!

Basically a hostel with tatami rooms

Great area. The age of the building, and atmosphere when in your tatami room is good, though with age also comes some things such as creaking floor boards and a slight musty smell. The common area is like most hostels, though small for the number of rooms. The bathroom area is open, so expect to be in full view to anyone walking to kitchen, as you clean teeth, remove make up etc.

perfect location and super clean!

The hostel was in a great location steps away from a lot of tourist sites. The staff was friendly and had recommended stuff to see when I had no plans. The rooms were super clean and pretty quiet with air conditioning, which is a necessity in the summer. I hope to come back soon :)

Great place to pass the night

Great place. We only stayed for one night. You can't pre-reserve the the "bath" and by the time we cheked in it was fully reserved so it's a shame we didn't get to experience it.

Ideal Hostel Experience

Hostel is located in the historic district of tokyo within walking distance to Yasuka and Kiyomizou Shrines. Staff here are friendly, place has an authentic Japanese furnishing to it. They have a locker storage room with a passcode. Sleeping rooms are kept at a comfortable temperature, washrooms are clean, and prices are excellent if backpacking. I have no complaints regarding this hostel. 5/5 from me.
