This is more of a hostel than a proper hotel. It is very basic and at times surprising at lack of amenities and free breakfast is terrible (power soup, bad coffee, stale bread and a boiled egg). For example, there are no cups/ kettle in the room. They only provide one bottle of water and there are signs at cafe in morning where breakfast is served that you cannot request hot water and you can only use 2 oz cups provided for water. I’d rather stay at a capsule hotel at 1/5th the price as bathroom is very basic and in not in a separate room. This is a good option when prices are low but very poor value for $300 Canadian a night when there are hotels in the area that are so much better. Will not be recommending or staying here again due to abundance of much better options in Gion.

Very easy check in process, very nice area around hotel such as shopping areas and temples along with easy access to bus and train stations. Staff was very friendly and helpful and while the hotel didn’t have the luggage forwarding service themselves, they were right next to a Yamato office which was very convenient.

Great modern hotel

(+) Convenient location to many attractions. Clean and modern rooms. Excellent showers with strong water pressure and multiple showerheads / jets. Light daily breakfast included. (-) Laundry machines are inefficient washer/dryer combos (clothes smelled unclean after washing and did not dry even after 2 hours. Best to just use outside coin laundry if laundry is needed).
