Breakfast is toast and chicken ramen? Only.It was convenient and within 1 km from Kyoto Station.I didn't need excessive service, so it was comfortable enough.

Although the name of the hotel says "in front of the station", the 7-minute walk is a bit strange in Kyoto, where there are many hotels. At the front desk, the owner was not unfriendly, but there were some issues such as no explanation of the welcome drink.I unlocked the room and entered, looking for a box to insert my card key into, but it wasn't near the door, so I couldn't find it, so I had to look for it in the dark using my cell phone's light.The semi-double bed was very comfortable and I was happy, but it didn't match the size of the room and other spaces were small.There are no glasses or cups in the room, but mugs are placed in the bathroom.The good thing was that there was no breakfast, but it came with toast, a drink, and chicken ramen style with hot water. That was really all I needed, so I should have bought some yogurt and milk when I went to the convenience store that night.Nishi Honganji Temple is within walking distance from the station.

Bad hotel, 0 service, guests are cursed at in high tones, even though we are guests from abroad, it's just a matter of suitcases, just report it to the police, if you want money for the charge I'll pay, I can pay using money, but don't shout- shouted at me as much as you like, I was left in the rain outside, my suitcase was said to be a nuisance, bad hotel, bad service, hurt my heart, d💔💔💔😭😭😭😭, didn't respect guests and guest privacy

It is about a 5-minute walk from Kyoto Station.Even though it was a weekday, I was able to stay at a very reasonable price, and there was free breakfast, although it was only toast.The room is not large, but if you just want to sleep while eating lunch at Kyoto Station, Cospa is a very good hotel.The only downside is that there is no luggage storage service and check-out is a bit early at 10 o'clock.

The response from the female staff at the front desk is not good.The refrigerator in my room was broken, so when I called to have it fixed, I was told that I was using my smartphone incorrectly and that I didn't know how to use it.So who knows? When I asked him to contact someone who knew, he got angry.I can't clean my room every day → So when will you do it? →I don't understand that.I've been using it for many years, but I won't be going back anymore.
