The stay was disappointing. The room was tiny, and the bed was uncomfortable: the mattress sagged right in the middle, and the pillows were bad.
The team at reception seemed to do the bare minimum; they weren't rude, but the service lacked any warmth. The luggage delivery company (external from the hotel) damaged our suitcase, and the reception team repeatedly questioned us ("Are you sure it wasn't already broken?"), which made the whole situation uncomfortable.
I stayed for three nights in a foliage season in Kyoto. Room is clean with good amenities, and staff are friendly and professional. It is walkable to the downtown Sanjo where are many fancy restaurants and bars.
Rooms are old so it’s a little inconvenient. You have to turn in the key before leaving. Staff is great apart from one old guy.

Room was extremely hot, no control over temperature in the rooms. Signs not to open the windows. If you do open the window to cool off you will be listening to traffic all night. Beds and pillows were terrible comparing prices to similar hotels within the area. Staff was very nice. Everything was clean. Room cleaner made the floor smell like BO
Great hotel close to the touristy part of Kyoto. We enjoyed the short walk to the shopping center and dining area with lots of options. Also close to Gion, the old town.
