I love this hotel! This is my second time staying here. The service is great! The rooms are clean and comfortable and the wifi is great! The location is also convenient from the Kyoto station or to walk to Nishiki Market or Gion. The breakfast is the best part: fast service and absolutely delicious food!

We loved our stay in APA! this is literally 5 min away from the Kyoto station which is the main station for the shinkansen stop. Very convenient! The breakfast is an authentic Japanese food. It's delicious! The staff spoke English really well. They are very friendly and very attentive. Amazing staff! I would definitely stay here again!
