The check in experience was easy and though it wasn’t too difficult to get to the property was more out of the way than expected for where we were going. The mattresses were very uncomfortable, but the room size was huge and having a washer and dryer on site was very handy.

Good place to stay for a group and is very close to a bus station. Not exactly in the center of Kyoto but it served our stay well. Only problem was some other guests being loud.

Comfy and Spacious

The room was much spacier than it looked in the pictures, which was a nice surprise. Walking distance from bus/train stations in a quiet Kyoto neighborhood.

The property is new and very clean. The room was spacious and had several amenities such as a refrigerator, microwave and hot water pot. The bathroom was very nice and provided cups, toothbrushes and cups. The location was convenient for the Family Mart and not far from the temple area with plenty of food options. Not as convenient for trains and the main part of Kyoto but the taxis were not too expensive.
