It is very safe, there are a big grocery store within a few feet, easy access to the bus station, walkable distance to Shijo subway station, Nijo Castle, and Don Quijote(this one is about 20 min walk, doable.) The room is clean, the price is reasonable and staff is super helpful and friendly. I totally recommand this hotel. ##### Jamie Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Andrew 13 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Grocery store nearby and great food options are nearby. Beds and overall room is great. They have paid breakfast but also a free breakfast with sugar, waffles and some bread and a toaster oven. The overall hotel doesn't really look like a hotel from the outside, as inside they have a bar facing the outside and then the check-in is a little deeper in so that was a little hard to find ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurel 15 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location!

Very clever usage of the small room space. No desk to work in the room. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Joel 8 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The breakfast set that came with our booking was the highlight of our stay at this hotel. It was delicious and very filling. We also got really lucky that we were give a room on the top floor with a really nice view of Kyoto. If it wasn't for that, I would only give this rating 3 stars. However, my big complaint is that this does not feel like you're staying at a 4 star hotel. We stayed at a 4 star hotel in Tokyo and the room there was much bigger. The room at this hotel felt cramped with our luggage. The bathroom at this hotel also does not have a tub. All the other hotels we've stayed at during our Japan vacation had a bath tub except for this one. In my opinion, this place is more of a 3 star hotel. ##### Joel Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JOSHUA 27 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Exceeded expectations!
