"Basic hostel in a great location that is clean and comfortable."

8.0

Great location and cost performance. It was clean and I thought the bed was fine and the air conditioning was just right. I appreciated the easy check out with the key drop off box and didn't have any issues with the wifi either. The other guests were kind and quiet too which was a nice bonus!

I only really have one thing I can complain about and that is that one of the showers was out of body soup in the dispenser. It was also generally lite on amenities but as a hostel that is what I was expecting so not really an issue.

"Good and convenient hostel"

8.0

Location is superb, in the sweet spot between the city centre, Gion and Nothern Higashiyama, at a walkable distance from many sightseeing spots. The room is big, with space for a double bed and a sofa.

The room was not very clean, especially the sofa, and the blankets had a few small stains. There is a small window that doesn’t let much light in.

The location is the best. It’s the third time I’ve been Kyoto and I have to say shijyou is the best place to stey, it’s easy to walk around and get beautiful view from my balcony. The owner and I staff are so nice. Highly recommended
