5/5
I went on a trip to Kyoto in late September 2024. I stayed at this hotel regularly until my trip in January of this year, but at that time I heard from the front desk that construction would begin in the spring and the hotel would be closed for the rest of the year. This time, when I stayed at another hotel and came to check on the situation, I discovered that the person who ordered the construction work was not the same company that operated Shusenkaku. Maybe another company will reopen the hotel next year.I was traveling alone and had always used different hotels, but this was my first time using this hotel.It is a normal business hotel with all the basic amenities.You can go to the convenience store on the first floor without leaving the building.The main advantage of this hotel is that it is located at a key point for trains and buses, making it convenient for eating and drinking, and it is also cheap. Another plus is that they also accept JR Kyoto Station carry service.

Good for sightseeing in Kyoto.The staff are also polite.The area near the hostel was quiet.The room felt a little Showa-era, but it was well-maintained and felt clean.

The convenience of the location is great. For some reason, the bathtub stopper didn't fit.

The location is perfect.The fact that the equipment is old can be compensated for by the low price.When I checked in early, they kept my luggage in the room.I am very grateful for this kind of concern.
