Great hotel in very convenient area of Kyoto, however the beds and 1 pillow provided are very hard, so not very comfortable sleep. A pillowtop on the beds and second softer pillow would be nice. The room and bathroom itself are nice though.

Great location to stay for Kyoto. Multiple options for food close by. Walkable to area attractions and minutes away from the Sanjo Station to take public transit to attractions further away. Staff is friendly and the rooms are comfortable.

"Cute and charming"

10.0

A cute, charming hotel. If you looking for fancy, this is not it. If you are looking for clean, quaint, comfortable, and well located at a fair price this is it! I was worried based on some of the the reviews but was so glad I booked. It's close to the train station and located near the night life. The staff was friendly. The only downside was the hotel bar, though we tried to use the coupons given, was never really staffed. Aside from that I'd recommend this hotel and I would stay again!
