The floors are not vacuumed when cleaning. Fairly dusty. Cups were not clean and greasy when I arrived.
Staff were very amenable, English speaking. Fridge and showers were nice.
Standing cleaning is every two days. The area of this hotel and the transportation link is on a mother level of convenience. 4 mins away is a bus stop that can take you to gion and most of the tourist destinations.
Our stay was very good. It was close to the station. The only thing would have loved to have parking as we didn’t know parking had to be paid extra in the visit and be reserved.
The beds are extremely old and sunken in as if you are sleeping in a spoon shaped mattress due to the mattresses being old, the mattress springs poke you all night and you can’t rest or sleep, I had to sleep sitting on bed with my back against the wall. The shower curtains were filthy and had mold on them, there is no one at reception if you need help, the rooms are extremely small where you can’t bring much luggage with you as there is not enough space. I strongly suggest that you do not stay here.
Très bon restaurant à 50 m avec un patron génial !!

J'ai réservé 2 chambres pour mes parents, ma sœur et moi. Les matelas étaient très durs et les lits en "cuvette", donc difficile de dormir. Mais la difficulté principale a été que la clim de la 2e chambre ne fonctionnait pas et personne à l'accueil pour aider !
Avec des températures extérieures à 38° à 2h du matin impossible de dormir...
Hotel bom, porém a localização não era das melhores! A pé ficava muito longe das estações. Para o nosso objetivo que era turismo, ficou um pouco longe pra nós! Recepção só funciona a partir das 15h, portas sem cartão porém com código e senha, moderno! Banheiro pequeno! Não tiramos foto do hotel.
Hotel boutique muy cómodo en una zona tranquila. Ofrece todo tipo de artículos, incluso personales, durante la estancia, lo que ayuda en caso de algún imprevisto. Es muy self service, por lo que hay que considerar que no habrá mucho personal que pueda ayudar todo el tiempo.
Goed hotel voor een paar nachten in Kyoto. Ik had wat schrik na de laatste reviews, maar dat was nergens voor nodig. De kamer was ruim genoeg voor ons 4, de bedden groter dan de meeste kamers. De matras niet van de dikste en vrij hard, maar toch prima geslapen! Alle producten waren aanwezig in de badkamer en in de hal kon je nog extra dingen nemen. We waren er voor 2 nachten en er lagen voor iedereen 2 kleine en 2 grote handdoeken klaar.
Openbaar vervoer nodig om er te geraken, maar wel lekker rustig!
