Perfect for short term stay in Kyoto. Accessible to Gojo and Kyoto station, good food in the immediate area (check out Ishisei!) and the check in/out process is super easy. Room was clean and had a deep bathtub. Futon was a little thin but that appears to be the norm in most inexpensive hotels. Staff was super friendly and the amenities are great, plus they offer a lot of extra options if you're interested.
The only downside was for me (let me be clear, FOR ME) I would've like another pillow. The staff was amazing and the finding the property from the station was easy. Even their correspondence prior to check-in was great.
Very traditional ryokan and very clean. The rooms were a decent size and the area was quiet. The staff offers you a book with recommendations such as dining and sight seeing attractions as well as how to get there by bus or transit. The ryokan also offers breakfast and other services for a fee, but the breakfast we had was amazing. They also have a bath you can rent for the hour which was a life saver after walking all day. Would definitely stay again. The staff was also very helpful and answered all of our questions.
The ryokan was definitely traditional. It was a wonderful experience, and the duvet was the most comfortable thing for the cold winter nights. We used the private open-air bath twice, once with sudden notice. The hotel staff were still happy to accommodate us despite the hour, and they were overall very kind about everything. There is a vending machine right across the street too, which was convenient, and Gojo station was a few blocks away. Overall a lovely experience, despite the older facilities, that was unique and comfortable!
Pros: the receptionist/ manager was charming, friendly, responsive, polite, helpful, etc. The location is about 15 minutes walk from JR Station, and I liked to walk through the alleys from the station where I got to see the real Japan, not just the "touristy Japan". The narrow alley the hotel is in is quiet and safe.
Cons: the room of 3 tatami mats about 1/2 tatami of wood flooring is much too small for 2 people. The 2 futons take up the whole space so you can barely open the door, and no space is left to sit, arrange the luggage, etc. Bathroom/ restroom is as small as an airplane's. Breakfast (2500 yen) is unreasonably expensive, at least 3 fold what a similar breakfast at a restaurant would cost! You might get a much cheaper and better breakfast at 7-11. Absolutely no room services.
Amazing experience with traditional Japanese beds!
I loved sleeping on traditional Japanese beds! I was skeptikal at the beginning thinking my back would hurt, but I changed my mind right away! They are really comfortable!! I slept amazing! I like also that you just fold the bed and makes much more space in the room! There is roughly a 5 minute walk to metro and bus stops. It’s located in a mostly residential area, but there are really good restaurants nearby! I liked everything!
This place was exactly what we were looki for- a taste of Japanese tradition. If you stay here, do not expect all the frills hotels offer. You can expect a sweet staff, bike rentals for just 600 yen, a Sento where men and women can be in it together, money exchange, and a restaurant. I wouldn’t use this for a long-term stay as the beds weren’t very thick and by the second night my husband ans I were ready for a real bed. Some reviews stated it smelled musty. We didn’t get a musty smell, we did get the smell of the bamboo and other building materials the room was made of, which we thought added to the authenticity. Reemphasia as a final thought- if you’re looking for a charming, authentic, Japanese feel then stay here. If you are looking for a hotel with all of it’s glitz ans glam then this place isn’t for you.
Bathroom- small, but similar to other Japanese hotel bathrooms we’ve seen. Your towel set is an extra 100 yen.
Living space- closer, small tv, blow dryer, tea set, bedding, heater/air conditioner
Real ryokan so you need to be quiet for your neighbors
That said the room they gave was lovely and absolutely quiet and tatami elegant. On a pedestrian street so no road noise yet close to groceries and train station. Bike for rent right there.
Perfect match for me but probably not for everyone.
Nos encontramos con la habitación con mucho polvo y descuidada, nos dijeron que limpiaban cada 3 días, pero como íbamos a estar 4 noches que limpiarian cuando nos fuéramos, además el ambiente de la habitación estaba muy cargado. Se escuchaba por la noche los ronquidos de la habitación de al lado. Por poner algo bueno, teníamos baño privado aunque bastante anticuado y el hostal estaba a unos 17 min de la estación con kombinis bastante cerca. El check in se hace en otro edificio cercano.

Stale smell
My room has a stale smell, which was not present outside. It is definitely not a ryokan ryokan but it’s cheap and offers you a small glimpse of what the real thing could be like. Friendly and helpful staff. Decent location.
Je trouve que le personnel est très bien formé à l'accueil. Les informations sont claires et précises, MAIS il y a toujours une notion d'argent. Ce qui met un peu sur la défensive
It was my first time staying at a ryokan and this place was the cutest. The staff were incredibly nice. The room was small but I was by myself so it wasn’t a problem. Everything was very clean! Towels are 100 yen extra. Only body wash and shampoo provided in the bathroom so bring your own toiletries. Walls are thin for sure but they offer ear plugs so it was fine.
My main transport hub was the Kyoto station. It was about a 15 minute walk away. There are convenience stores and a supermarket between Kyoto station and the ryokan, so it was easy to pick up food on the way back to the ryokan.
A great budget ryokan and I would definitely return.
