Hotel is in walkable distance to Jujo station (17 minutes) and Fushimi Inari Taisha so it was very convenient. The hotel’s atmosphere was very pleasant which helped us feel relax whenever we step inside. Staff can speak English well and were very nice to us, it made we feel like home when we return from our long day of walking and sightseeing. Room is very nice and clean. The only problem we encountered that we were not used to the heat in Kyoto so we had to call front desk to help us adjust the AC several times but they were all nice about it and helped us out every time.

This is my favorite hotel in Kyoto. Although it is a little far from Kyoto Station, you can stay there cheaply during the off-season.

Breakfast is delicious. Although it was a little far from the nearest station, the room rate was quite reasonable. The room I stayed in was fairly clean.

The inconsiderate staff who helped us at check-in, the extremely dark room, no place to put things, and the mysterious stain on the sheets that was clearly visible even in the dark room... I thought this was a disappointing hotel. However, breakfast changed everything!It was delicious! !Everyone except the staff at the beginning was polite and kind, which I thought was great.Also, the bed was comfortable.
