It is located close to Kyoto Station, so accessibility to other tourist destinations is very good.There are a lot of places to shop around, including Ropia, Don Quijote, and Eamon Mall.There are many restaurants and izakaya near Kyoto Station, which is great.As for the condition of the room, it was noticeable that not only the bedding but also the bedding was very dusty, so I think you need to be careful.The large public bath is on the 9th floor, so it makes you feel like you are enjoying an outdoor hot spring. I am satisfied with the fact that they provide free ice cream in the evening and free yogurt in the morning.I enjoyed the soy sauce ramen provided for a late-night snack.

the baths are exceptional!you also have yogurt drinks offered in the morning. Ramen offered in the evening after 9:30 p.m.and ice creams offered in the evening at the baths.I strongly advise against their ''evening meal'' at 1000 because it is only fried food which is really not good. So you get much better free ramen.

Stayed for two nights, the location is very convenient, just across the street from Kyoto Station and walk right! There is a convenience store nearby downstairs! There are also drug stores and big cameras opposite and nearby.The service at the counter is also very good! It happened to be raining, and the hotel manager also took the initiative to ask if he needed to borrow an umbrella! After checking in, you will be provided with a discount coupon for the hotel to cooperate with nearby restaurants, but the discounts are not much, and those restaurants are relatively high-priced.Free soy sauce ramen is provided at certain times! But with only simple ingredients, it’s actually quite delicious! There is a free coffee machine in the lobby on the first floor that you can use by yourself.The 9th floor is the soup house. Girls need a password to enter. There are two soups and a cold pool indoors. There are ovens and steam rooms. There are two outdoor soups that are very hot, but they are a bit small. The hair dryer does not work very well. I lost my hair for two days in a row. It's very knotted...but there are all the supplies that should be available in the bathhouse, and there are free comics to read outside after taking a bath! And they are all popular comics now! Too bad I only found out on the last night! There are also unlimited popsicles (three flavors). If you go to the soup in the morning, it is Yakult.Breakfast is 2,300JPY/person. There isn’t a lot of food, but it’s really great that you can have sashimi donburi so early in the morning! The pork gravy is also very good! There are also a variety of pickle toppings! However, I don’t think the drinks made from coffee taste very good, but there are a lot of people lining up every time... There are not many dining seats. If there are many people dining at the same time, you need to stand outside and wait in line...The following deduction itemsThe people who clean the room seem to be foreign workers. The noise of the air conditioner is a bit loud. It is not a built-in air conditioner but a whole air conditioner. I have to turn off the air conditioner before going to bed.The sound insulation is not very good, I kept hearing noises upstairs, and the sound of huge things falling woke me up!Also the room cleaning was not very clean! There is a lot of dust in the corners, the tables have not been wiped, and the notice boards for changing towels are all stained by drinks. They are sticky and disgusting... I provided photos and videos to the front desk when I checked out, hoping they can improve! Excluding this point, this hotel would be 5 stars.
