This property is in a quiet neighborhood situated only a few blocks from Kyoto Station. The entrance is small and looks like a small convenience store, and was a little hard to find. The staff saw us struggling and came to our aid. It was too early to check in so we stored our luggages which they later brought to our room. The hotel gave off vibes as a small family owned business with great service. The building feels new and the amenities were complete. It more than exceeded my expectations. I would stay again given the location, cleanliness, service and amenities.

The only downside is they dont do cleaning on a daily basis unless you stay more than 4 days. Have to pack your own trash and put the towels outside in order to have fresh towels. 10-15minutes walk distance from the JR station. Need to key in password to enter at night hence it can he quite a hassle if you are stuck checking in after 6pm. No food or drinks in the vicinity if u need at night. Have to walk a distance in the cold to the nearest lawson which is 5-10mins away.

This hotel is located a few blocks away from Kyoto station. It is very easy to find and there are multiple bus options around. Keep in mind that after a certain time in the evening there is no receptionist and you will need to check in via a tablet. There is no room key and they provide a code instead (to get into your room and the hotel after hours). There is a mini “store” on the first floor which you can purchase quick items while a receptionist is there. Overall a great experience. I would definitely book this hotel in the future.

Nice stay but checkin was not easy
The hotel looks new. The biggest problem I encountered was checking in. Not easy when I had to do it on my own after the receptionist had left for the day. After struggling for a while I got instructions via FaceTime/Zoom. Then I was asked to send a copy of my passport. I was shocked since I had done it two or three days prior. The hotel’s computer system was that slow? Other than that the stay was fine. The room was relatively good-size and the hotel is conveniently located.

Hotel is more spacious than most Japanese hotel. The shower and toilet area is separated which I like tremendously. I was given a room at level 10 and it gives a good view of Kyoto tower & Kyoto station. There’s a small convenience stall in the checkin reception running from 9am-6pm. They are price quite affordably. Expedia website state the hotel will email me 5 days before my stay about checkin instructions but that didn’t happened. So you need to email the hotel to receive matters about checkin. Otherwise all things are good.

Very new and clean. A little longer to walk from the rain station though. Staffs are friendly n check in and check out is easy. Check out timing at 10am is a little earlier than most hotel, no laundry facilities is one downside of the hotel.

The light switch for the room should have been near the entrance of the room instead of near the bed. Toilet paper and tissue paper is too thin. It’s so difficult to use as you need to fold many many times in order get enough paper to use. Other than the above, the property is in a very convenient location, just about 10 mins walk from Kyoto station. It is very clean and has a reasonable price. Will come here again
