My stay was a mixed bag. The hotel is very close to Kyoto Station, making it easy to travel around, but the rooms were quite small and didn’t even have basic amenities like a kettle. The service was a hit or miss – some staff were nice, while others seemed a bit cold. Overall, it’s decent for the price, but the noise from the trains and the cramped rooms might make it less appealing for some.

The room was small and cramped, lacking a basic electric kettle, which was disappointing. It was nice enough, but definitely not spacious.

The location is very convenient, just a short walk from Kyoto Station, which makes traveling by train really easy. However, the noise from the trains can be bothersome, especially early in the morning.

The breakfast was minimal, consisting of simple items like toasts, hard-boiled eggs, and machine-made soups. It wasn't particularly exciting.

Facilities were pretty basic. There wasn't much to write home about, but I guess it was adequate for what I needed.

Staying at this hotel was quite an experience! Its location is fantastic, just a short walk from Kyoto Station, making it super convenient for travel. The rooms were extremely clean, but I found the lack of a closet a bit uncomfortable for a longer stay. While the staff was generally friendly, I did experience a moment where they seemed a bit standoffish before swiftly moving me to a different room. Overall, a good value, though some aspects could be improved.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a decent experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, which is always a plus, but the dining options left a bit to be desired. The location was very convenient for getting around Kyoto, although it could be a little dark at night and noisy due to the trains. Overall, it was a good value for the price, but there are some areas that could use improvement.

The hotel is extremely close to Kyoto Station, making it a breeze to jump on the train. However, it’s located between three train lines, so the noise can be disruptive, especially early in the morning.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, primarily because of its proximity to the train station and the affordable price. The trains were quite audible at times, which was a bit distracting, but it was manageable overall. The room was a bit cramped, making it tricky to find space for my suitcase. Overall, if you're looking for a budget option in a convenient location, this place could work for you.

Rooms

The room was quite small, with barely enough room to open my carry-on and no place to store my suitcase except on the floor. It can be a bit noisy due to the nearby train tracks.

I had a pretty mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were quite small and got a bit chilly in the evening, but the bed was big and comfortable. The service was hit or miss; while one staff member was helpful, another wasn't as friendly. The location is convenient for getting around, especially to the train station, but the noise from the trains can be disruptive. Overall, for the price, I think it could have been better, but there were some bright spots.
