Spacious room, friendly and helpful hotel staff, fantastic breakfast. Will definitely return, convinient location to train station to other parts of kyoto.
가격대비 굉장히 질이 낮은 호텔이었습니다....
호텔이란이름을왜붙였는지....
방음도안되고 한국으로따지자면 유스호스텔같은 느낌이었습니다.
로비만멀쩡..엘레베이터타고올라가면 시설이굉장히낙후되었습니다

Good location
Easily accessible by bus and close to the tourist area. The staff speak good English and were helpful with looking for transportation option for my next stop. The only downside is that they do not have wifi in the room.
장점
비즈니스 호텔 처럼 좁지 않고 일본 전통 다다미 방식으로 침대를 싫어하는 나에게 좋았음. 목욕탕이 있어서 좋고 지하철역에서도 2분 내 거리. 가격도 저렴하여 좋음
단점
로비에서는 인터넷이 되나 방에서는 인터넷이 안된다.
밤 11시에 문을 닫는다. 야경 촬영이 어렵다.
It's right in front of subway exit. Turn to the street on the right to find yourself bask in restaurants and shops. Turn to the left to get Japanese style souvenirs. Straight ahead a beautiful temple exists. Everything is within walking distance. The hotel itself offers traditional way of living. Wear your yukata lent from the hotel. Drink as much ocha tea as you want. Bathe yourself in the hot tub. Minus : no wifi in your room.
Rooms had a private toilet and sink but bathing facilities are public ryokan-style. There is no WiFi in the rooms but the first floor has free wifi. Location was great.
