Our stay here over the few days was great. Room and bathroom were spacious and the ability to do laundry all in the room was excellent. Really short walk to the subway station and walking distance to major shrines, shopping, dining and attractions. Definitely would stay again and absolutely recommend.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay here. I loved how the room included a washer for our dirty clothes. It was really convenient since our total trip to Japan was 15 days. The location of this hotel was also located near this really cute shopping street with a bunch of food places. We would definitely stay here again.

This was one of our favorite stays in Japan. Our room was clean, organized and a great size! The beds were super comfy and we had great sleeps. The area is quiet and is close to a quaint river. We used their luggage delivery service as we arrived in Kyoto before check in. Their office is about a 5 minute walk from Kyoto station, and you can drop your luggage off and they will deliver it to your hotel. This allowed us to enjoy the day without our luggage before our check in! We would recommend this place to anyone staying in Kyoto.
