I used it recently! The room had more amenities than I expected, including amenities and tableware, and it was spacious and very clean! I thought it would be more popular among people overseas, but even Japanese people can use it without any inconvenience!It was a little inconvenient because the elevator was a little small and the stairs couldn't be used all the time, but there were plenty of restaurants and convenience stores nearby, which was great!The explanation is a little long and slow, so if you're in a hurry, it might be difficult to check in, so I think you should be careful!

First off, clean!I love the open structure!The 2nd and 3rd floors are restaurants where you can also eat Korean food!^^Like a pension, there is a kitchen in the room, so you can enjoy simple konbini dishes!It is a 15-minute drive to the Shinkansen station.The downside is that there is no parking lot;;;

It's more of an apartment you can rent, not a hotel. But, it's a really great place to stay while in Kyoto. The owner is very nice and helpful. He helped load our suitcases into the taxi as we left while it was pouring hard. He didn't want us getting wet. Also, rooms were extremely clean and spacious - especially for the price. It's a little ways away from the downtown area, but you can get there easily by train. I would definitely come back here for a future visit!

Cozy hotel, huge room for up to 5 people, each room occupies the entire floor with a lift that takes you directly to the room. It also has the convenience of having a separate toilet and shower room. The reception is only open from 5pm to 10pm. The owner is very kind and attentive.
