Carrying a heavy suitcase is a difficult distance in the heat. If I didn't have any luggage, I would have been fine. Convenience store is 5 minutes walk.If you want to go sightseeing, it is more convenient and less crowded to go from the bus stop around Omiya Shichijo than to go back to Kyoto Station.The room is spacious and comfortable enough for two people. The sofa was spacious and the two of us could lounge around.The bathroom was difficult to use as there was no washing area.The kitchen has one IH stove, microwave, freezer, and minimal cooking utensils and tableware, which is sufficient for simple cooking such as heating. It is not suitable for serious cooking.Also, the soundproofing was poor and there were many thuds coming from upstairs. I'm not a nervous person, so it was fine, but I wonder if people who are concerned about it will find it comforting.I thought it would be a good idea to warn guests with a sign or something.Guests staying on the third floor may be particularly insensitive.The surrounding area was quiet...There will be no staff present after 6pm.However, it was cheap, so I felt it was a good value for money.However, when I looked at the price in high season, the price was more than double, so if I was to pay the same price in high season, I would choose a nice hotel near the station.I am very satisfied with my stay this time.

Stayed for 6 nights as a family of 4. It was neat and clean and had everything we needed, including laundry. Sofa bed was tolerable and room was small, staff were helpful and had excellent english. Weekly room cleaning was sufficient for us and linen was readily available. Location was excellent, short walk to Kyoto station.

Large rooms for a decent price. Just a short 10 minute walk from the train station. Very fast wifi (700 symetrical during offpeak and 200 symetrical during peak) and comfortable beds. Booked via Airbnb and check in process was super fast and easy.

Booked during off season and got very good price. Pretty close to Kyoto station, hence, very easy to commute.A bit small for 4 adults but doable since we spent most of our time outside. Their toilet is great!

From the moment I entered the room, it was obvious that there was trash that didn't belong to me, and the fixtures in the open-air bath were falling off...The door handle of the bathroom door in room 102 looked like it was falling off...I wonder if they are cleaning it properly...?The taste and service at the sake bar on the first floor was amazing!
