"Good size studio at the heart of Kyoto"

Exceptional

9.0

The location is wonderful. The bathroom and shower room were spacious. Beds were comfortable. Room was good size.

The window was facing a back alley/ventilation shaft. Not for the claustrophobic. You have to speak Japanese or English I guess. Because the check in was via a telephone call from the entrance to a virtual help desk.

Really large room, separate kitchen, comfortable beds and great location. Washing machine was a bonus! We loved it!

Renting plates and cups seemed a bit cheapo

"Cleanliness needs to improve"

Excellent

8.0

The location is ideal, and the room size exceeded expectations for Japanese standards.

The cleanliness of the bathroom could be improved. The bedsheets did not appear entirely clean, the duvet was worn, and the pillows were uncomfortable. My messages sent via Line did not receive a response. Additionally, there are charges for early check-in, late checkout, and the use of kitchen utensils. A notice states that a fee of 3000Y will be applied if kitchen utensils are used without prior notification. On one occasion, the receptionist did not offer a greeting and appeared displeased.
