The hotel is in a very convenient location, not far from Kyoto station and the main tourist areas. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, with lots of space for storage, which surpassed my expectations. However, the long-term dirtiness was a downside. The service is very friendly and always willing to help with taxi reservations, but there were hesitations when requesting room changes. The location is nice and easy to navigate for sightseeing, although it is away from the metro station. The dining experience is filling with a variety of offerings, but the homemade pastries were a complete disappointment.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious, well-equipped, and spotlessly clean, making for a super functional experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, although I did encounter a slight hiccup when they refused to assist with booking tickets for universal studios. The location was perfect, just steps away from Gojo station, making it easy to explore all the major attractions. The dining experience was a bit lacking in variety, especially for a longer stay, and the breakfast served canned fruits. Despite that, the overall value for money was great.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, very clean, and had everything we needed, but being in the back with no natural light was a bit of a downside. The service was top-notch, with brilliantly helpful staff who spoke excellent English. The location was super convenient, just one stop by subway from Kyoto station, making sightseeing a breeze.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel despite being located on a busy road. The room opened onto the dining area and was good-sized, equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I particularly enjoyed the convenient location and great size of the room. However, the noise from the road was a small downside.

The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with great storage. It's a shame the balcony was not accessible, but overall the room is cozy with nice toiletries. The service is exceptionally customer-oriented and friendly. The location is fantastic, close to the train station and convenient for exploring without being too crowded. The dining experience, although with additional charges, was mediocre. The hotel lacks natural light due to being in the basement, but facilities are well-equipped.
