Room equipped with air conditioning, quite clean and welcoming with a large bed, window, a small table with two chairs, a huge horizontal surface on which you can (finally!) comfortably open suitcases, with wooden shelves underneath. And then crutches, a kettle, two cups, two glasses, two plates, two spoons, two teaspoons, a scissors and two forks, all of which can be used to heat food in the microwave in the corridor. Also tissues, refrigerator and bathroom equipped with bathtub, toilet, sink complete with towels, hairdryer, various soaps, dish cloth, conditioner, toothbrushes. Free slippers (in the structure you can go without shoes). In the corridor, dispenser with FRESH and hot WATER available! And instant coffee, milk and matcha milk, plus, of course, tea bags and sugar. Staff helpful and friendly, but not present at night. Only flaw: flight of stairs to climb with suitcases because there is no lift. All within a 10 minute walk from the station. Luggage storage is available before or after check-in, or a wall handrail with padlocks to which you can secure your suitcase in the corridor. Excellent for those who have to travel by train and extremely practical. Not luxury, nor romantic, nor typical but absolutely comfortable

I read some reviews and I just laugh,some people probably thought to have booked a luxury hotel😂😂I recommend to find the right balance between costs and expectations while making a reservation,cause for the money they ask to sleep in this property,what you get it’s absolutely enough..You want a super silent place?go to bigger properties and don’t waste hard work of owners and staff with a bad reviewFor sure I would like come back here once in Kyoto again

The environment is small! But it is still very convenient. There are also locks in the corridor to store luggage, which is very considerate! The key point is cheap! It takes about 8-10 minutes to walk from the station. Overall, there is no big problem. I would still like to live here in the future👍👍👍👍

This is a very bad place. Three star hotels are a lie...everywhere is very dirty. The room we stayed in was almost different from the photo. We arrived at 7am and the front desk was often empty and no one answered our calls or emails. After calling 10 times, the staff came out of the room and took care of my luggage. After checking in at night, the soundproofing in the room was very poor. Our family has fungal allergies and unfortunately everyone has allergies, so we get very thick dust. There is no comforter, so you will need to make your own sofa bed. There was hair on the bed too.

The room pic here on google looks nothing like our room. We had 1 bed and a couch bed. Which was what our pic looked like. The cleaner when we got here did take all the trash out so my wife saw something upsetting. But when we brought it up the staff here quickly came up and took out the trash! 👍🏽 🙏🏽 also it’s not a single place to yourself. It’s more like an apt complex with rooms. Two floors with several rooms on each floor. Buses are not too far in all directions. We walked from Kyoto station train here, wasn’t bad. Laundry is coin laundry down the block. So not here at location. Overall for price can’t complain.
