This hotel is in a great location and was a very nice stay! The rooms had everything we needed and were very clean and modern. The location is within short distance of a few subway stops.
This hotel is genuinely just a place to rest. They have a nice restaurant in the lobby but the rooms were miniature. I consider this on the level of a fancy hostel.

Location is great, the staff was helpful and nice, the room was great. We were very happy with our stay.
Queen room great food, wonderful location and a wonderful city. You do need to realize that in Japan the rooms are small, but this is well organized and more than adequate.
Very comfortable rooms. Nice quiet neighborhood but not too far from busier streets and transport when needed.
Staff were amazing. Loved our stay here.
Truly loved our home base in Kyoto. Staff was so helpful and patient. The 2 twin bed room was perfect for my son and I. Comfortable beds on the firmer end. The shower and water pressure were heavenly. The restaurant was delicious particularly for dinner and the bar a perfect stop after a long day. They handled shipping our luggage easily. Really enjoyed our stay. Can't think of a negative thing to say except maybe install more wall hooks in the room to hang clothes and a laundry service would be nice. We walked to a coin laundry and it was fine. Would definitely stay here again.
Great location, so comfortable and friendly staff.

Nice room, friendly staff, great location.
Breakfast came highly recommended but we were not impressed. You select from a fixed menu. We tried the thai breakfast, rather tasteless, and the Western breakfast was under cooked.
