The step into the bathroom is a bit dangerous

Good location, nice staff, comfy tatami!

The shower made a loud sound when I turned the warm water up - had to have a semi-cold shower.

Short distance to station, nice personel and cheap.

They don't tell you anywhere that you need to pay an "accomodation fee" of 200 Yen per person per night. Probably no big deal but it's good to be clear and inform clients in advance.

Staff was friendly and polite, he tried to helped us as much as he could.

The walls are very thin. You can hear voices from the other rooms.

Great location and perfect for solo traveller. The tatami room was really lovely. Big plus that it was very close to Kyoto station.

The room seemed a little worn off. There are also no shades in the room, so the sunlight gets through easily.

A great place for a ryokan-like experience with the tatami floor and the futon bed. The room size is pretty nice. The hotel is located in a few minutes walk form Kyoto Station

The space. It felt a bit tight.

All of it. Beautiful, quirky and a lot of character to this place.

Staff were not present often if at all, I organised a second futon in advance for a friend who was staying with me ( not planned to be with me before I booked, very last minute) and was approved for said futon, however despite mentioning to the staff member that it was approved by the hotel representative, I was refused the futon. Tried to organise it a second time however it didn’t end up working out that time either. We ended up just sharing one for the rest of the week. Not ideal but could have been worse. Oddly the hotel entrance door was never locked either, even very late at night. Otherwise, I really enjoyed my stay, thanks for having us!

Location was fantastic, just between Gojo Karasuma station and Kyoto main station, few cafes and restaurants around and convenience stores just a short walk down. Room was small but very cute, if you don’t mind small spaces it’s a lovely little room for one person.

Thin walls make it easy to hear any noise coming from other rooms. The last floor doesn't have an elevator. Cleanliness wasn't the best on a Japanese standard, but still acceptable overall. They make you pay the city tax in cash after your arrival, and honestly that doesn't make much sense. There was a full rubbish bin just in the middle of the walkway on the 4th floor. The front desk is open just in the afternoon.

Pretty big room with a private bathroom for a fair price. Conveniently located at a few hundred meters from Kyoto station. You can leave your luggage in storage for no fee, very convenient for travellers. They spoke English at the front desk.

We knew that the walls were thin, but not this thin. We could hear even a quiet conversation in the room next to ours, as if they were sitting next to us. One night guests in that room were very loud until 3AM and there's nothing you can do about it, even though house rules say quiet time after 10PM. The hotel was unresponsive after writing to them via booking.

Tatami experience was great, it was very comfortable. There are plenty of convenience stores in the neighborhood, laundry service both in the hotel and down the street and a great ramen place nearby (next to the curry place).

The temperature in the shower was either too cold or too hot, and when i could finally get a nice temperature it only lasted about 10-15 seconds until it got too hot or too cold again. We could also hear a lot of noises from the nearby rooms.

Easily walkable distance to the station, shopping malls, and multiple convenience stores. Very cute, simple and charming room with tatami mats. Reasonable price. Friendly staff. The lighting in the bathroom was good for applying makeup and getting a proper good look at your face.

It was a little noisy at night and there were a lot of people smoking at the entrance, but they were polite and moved out of the way when coming in and out.

Great location near Kyoto station, very easy to walk to. Also close to other subway and bus stops. The room itself was small but pretty comfortable. Staff was helpful.

The rooms are very small and you can also hear next door people talking. The toilet is super duper small and cramp as the shower and toilet bowl is so near to each other therefore it is difficult to turn the body for someone big size or tall.

Location is quite near to train station

This is a very simple hotel with a one night only kind of hotel. We were given the last floor room (5th floor) but the lift only goes until the 4th floor so Imagine our surprise when we are traveling with 2 big large luggage. At least the guy from reception helped us to carry our luggage, which was nice of him.

What we did not really like was the thin wall so we can hear noise from other rooms but we slept well.

It was a good night, the facilities were as told. The futon was comfy, no trouble. Price was good and near the station. We would like to stay again if come to Kyoto.

Thin walls, dirty lobby, tiny shower.

Comfortable futon, great location.

The hotel feels dated. The tatami in the room was plastic, so was not the best feeling. It was ok for 2 nights.

Stayed in November 2023

A lot of dust on in the room, on the furniture.

Just 5 min walk to Kyoto Station.
