Top hotel. Very well thought out, right down to the Wazarashi pajamas. Away from tourist activity but nevertheless accessible on foot from the station, Gion and Fushimi Inari. Sleek aesthetic for this price range

The room was clean and stylish. It would have been 5 stars if there was an ice service, but there are no convenience stores nearby, so I need ice.

Excellent value for moneyI personally like the location. It's very close to the center and has convenient transportation. It's very quiet.The person who said the location is remote may not have high IQ or poor expression. In fact, it is a 20-minute walk to Kyoto Station. He may be trying to say that there are no places for him to shop or eat nearby (but for me, there are actually 24-hour supermarkets. Enough 🤣)This is the perfect choice for travelers who don’t need to go downstairs to shop but want quality living.The design of the hotel is very good and great value for money. I will come again next time

The service is not good. When requesting a pillow or blanket, it will also be rejected. It does not deserve 4 stars for the weakness of the services provided within the facility, but the room space and cleanliness are very good.

Beautiful hotel in a quiet alley, love the bit of greenery in the balcony despite of the limited space, but the soundproof is not as good, i could hear my neighbour performing live romance action movie 🙂‍↕️

The ambience is awesome, and so are the rooms with the garden outside, however the position is far from the city's centre, but at the same time it's near to Fushimi-inari taisha and Kiyomizu-dera temples
