Cheap, clean.
Japanese rooms have little comfort, but if you’re aware of that on booking, this is an excellent choice. We slept better on these matrasses on the floor then on most western-style beds in other cheap hotels. We did have to get used to the smell in the room though: it smelled a bit funny, because our room didn’t have a window. But that’s no reason not to book this hotel, I will certainly book the same hotel again when I go back to Kyoto. Very friendly and helpfull hostess, clean rooms, good location near the JR station.

very clean, lovely staff, and in a great location
although a bit overpriced, the location of this hotel was just a few minutes walk from kyoto station, and near to other stations too which made it easy to get to the temples and other tourist attractions. the staff were extremely helpful and kind and the cleanliness of the hotel, especially the bathroom, was excellent. they also have a washing machine, free internet and a kitchen...which was very useful. i would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

Traditional Tatami mat hotel
This is a traditional tatami mat floor hotel with tiny rooms and futons on the floor. The people are extremely friendly, the place is immaculate and the water in the tiny bathroom is hot. You sleep on a futon on the floor which was something we tried and didn’t care for. We went to a western hotel down the road which was more to our liking. Personal preference. For this type experience, the place was great. For big beds on a bed frame, look around.
Traveller's tip
Affordable lodging is available if you look. Kyoto is a magical place. During busy season(summer) make reservations on line for the Imperial palace, gardens etc. Great easy bus system and friendly helpful people.
