The hotel is conveniently located just a short walk from Kyoto Station, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms are clean but may feel a bit small compared to Western standards. The staff were helpful, especially with directions, but one interaction was less than pleasant. Overall, it offers good value for money, though the dining experience had some room for improvement.

I had a pleasant stay overall at this hotel. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the train station and quite peaceful. The rooms had a charming Japanese style, but they were a bit on the warm side without air conditioning. The service was helpful but didn't quite measure up to other places I've stayed in Japan.
