Pros: The location is very good. Aeon Mall is nearby and it is easy to get to the station.Breakfast is free (white bread, vending machine soup, cup ramen, apple, and orange juice are provided.)Disadvantages: 1. The mold smell is very strong in the room. In particular, the bathroom was so nauseating that I turned on the exhaust fan all day, but it didn't go away.2. The refrigerator barely works. It's like submerging it in cold water.3. The body of a dead bug (ant?) was found in my bed on the last day. Very unpleasant.Overall Review: Considering the location, it's worth coming, but not recommended considering hygiene, etc.

Check-in at 4 o'clock, I arrived 2 hours early. I was very tired, but the front desk was kind enough to let me check in early. Thank you very much🙏

It's a long walk from the Kyoto station. Strangely this was the only (out of 3) hotels in Japan where they collected a tax at the hotel. Check in and checkout was on a machine at the lobby. Simple breakfast is provided which is a great plus. Convenience stores are nearby and there is a mall as well.

Most guests are foreigners. Can you please hire someone who can speak English? A male receptionist in the morning would just ignore you if you speak English. Or he pretended he doesn't speak it to skip some jobs. And he didn't tell me I can have free drinks from the coffee machine.

I stayed here for 2 nights on a trip. You can stay there for about half the price of a business hotel near the station, and it's about 10 minutes from the station, with convenience stores and fast food restaurants nearby. Amenities were minimal (I didn't use them so it didn't matter), and the room was small, but the bed was large and comfortable. I laugh at all the reviews that people say about the service, facilities, customer service, walls, etc. while staying at a budget hotel. Is this a complaint? If you want to be as comfortable as possible, I think you should stay at a hotel 2 to 3 times the price. Cheap hotels require a certain amount of discount. I think it would be a good idea to eat a little better food with the saved money. Thank you for your help.
