"Kenji was a very nice host and his "guest house English" speaking was wonderful!! It is a perfect location if you are looking to wake up early and walk to the bamboo forest, you can be one of the first people there. Kenji also gave us recommendations of places to visit in the area that you otherwise may not have known about. "
"A great ryokan with very friendly staff. The Japanese breakfast was the best we had in Japan! Our room was nice, clean, and had an amazing view. Great location! "
"The location is great- steps from the train station. Not a lot nearby in terms of food and most things close early when the tourists leave for the day. Which means it’s pretty quiet at night. Rooms are good size, not cramped like most of Japan. Windows barely open and the AC was not working well when we were there. "
"Nice and comfortable, but not convenience for taking train, taking bus is fine.
A little bit disappointed that there is no smoking room even I have booked smoking room.😅"
"This property is very cheap for the size and quality of the room. There was some questionable stains on the couch but besides that everything else was rather clean for the nature of the hotel"

"Hotel staff was nice and helpful. Breakfast buffet was good. Room was a bit small, but not bad when compared to other Japanese hotels. Good location across the street from the train station."
"Amazing location for a few days. Very comfortable and located in the station which has convenience. Shopping around, food everywhere, just very busy when you leave the hotel if you want something different. The hotel however was very nice. "
"This hotel was the nicest hotel I stayed in during my trip in Japan.
The location was great as it was a very short walk to the park, Kyoto aquarium and train museum. It was also right beside the station which is just one stop away from Kyoto station. There is also a combini within the hotel so I never needed to leave the hotel to get something from a combini.
The rooms were great as the room and bathroom were more spacious and very clean. The public bath was also very nice and not very crowded during my stay.
The staff were very helpful and welcoming which was nice. I ordered a luggage transfer from this hotel and the staff handled my luggage and paperwork for me which was great.
I did not try any dining options so I have no comments on that.
The hotel provided everything I would want and need in a hotel. Great rooms, price, amenities, location and service.
I have no complaints with my stay here and would recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the area."

This hotel quickly became one of my favorite places to stay! I wish we had more time to enjoy it fully. The hotel offered a variety of on-site amenities, and the building itself housed shopping and dining options. They even provided coupons for some of the dining establishments within the building, which was a nice touch.
The restaurant we dined at was fantastic—the food was excellent, and it was conveniently located just downstairs. The hotel's location was ideal; it’s within a 5-minute walk to the station for the local line, making it very easy to get around the city. There was also a park and an aquarium nearby, providing great options for sightseeing and outdoor activities.
Access to all the locations we wanted to visit was incredibly easy, thanks to the close proximity of bus and subway lines. The pajamas they provided were so comfortable, making the stay even more enjoyable.
The only downside was the laundry facility—there were only four washing machines, and unfortunately, one was out of order. However, there was a coin laundry just an 8-minute walk away, so it wasn't too inconvenient.
Overall, this hotel was a beautiful place to stay and truly one of my favorites. I would definitely love to return!"
