The staff was nice and the hotel is in a good area - very walkable to the Tofukuji station that connects with the Gion District and the Imperial Palace. However, my shower curtain had mold all over it and there was something smeared on the wall and the bottom of the bathtub had dirt in it. The bed was also super hard so it was a little difficult for me to sleep but if you like a hard mattress you’ll sleep just fine.

The bidet spray was dirty so I opted to not use the bidet. The flush power of the bidet is very weak, going once i would need to flush a few times but even then it wouldnt flush everything. The washroom also had a mildewy smell and the shower curtains looked like it had a bit of mold. Please note the rooms are VERY small. If you have a checked bag theres only enough room to open one checked suitcase, any more and that won't work out. On the plus side the staff were great and efficient. Amenity drink options were plenty. The black tea was really delicious. I did like they had tv streaming services available to use for free.

Lamentablemente en mi estadía en Kyoto tuve que dividir mis días en 2 hoteles, de no haber tenido esta experiencia, seguramente mi calificación sería más alta. Pero teniendo un punto de comparación tan directo debo decir que por el Precio que me costó esta noche, puedes conseguir mejores opciones. Fue la peor relación entre precio y calidad de todo mi viaje a Japón

Emplacement très proche des transports, Une salle commune agréable et des chambres spacieuses pour le niveau d'hôtel mais des odeurs d'égouts, un peu de laissé aller sur le ménage et une isolation un peu faible entre les chambres, dommage car bien sûr beaucoup de points !
