The location was perfect for us. It was just enough off the beaten path to not feel busy and touristy, but within walking distance to a number of sights and transportation options. The staff here are wonderful! They were helpful with restaurant recommendations, anything we needed for our room, and were just genuinely so kind. Our room was spacious and the layout allowed for lots of places to put our stuff. It was definitely our favorite room on our trip! I also have to put in a word for the cafe across the street, Le Bac a Sable. While the baked goods are not Japanese, they are yummy. The tarts, specifically, are amazing! That paired with their wonderful bold coffee became a favorite addition to our day. ##### Angela Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Grant 28 Mar 2025 Liked: Amenities The property is small but large enough to offer excellent service.

Really pleasant and nice workers. The ambiance and decor is so calming in a traditional modern Japanese style. Didn’t have breakfast included as an option, however the hotel does sell açaí bowls with bread. They have free coffee, water, and tea for all guests. Desk attendant helped us send our luggage to another hotel. ##### Maya Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gloria 9 Dec 2024 Liked: Amenities Helpful desk staff.

I love the tidiness and cleanesss. The reception is quick and kind enough. The location is close enough to the city center, yet less crazy. Walking to Heian Shrine was perfect!!! I recommend this location to all. ##### Hideko Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liam 8 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Review from Canadian tourist: Staff was able to speak a good amount of English and everything was explained to us upon check in. Across the street from train station allowed us to get around easy. 10 minute walk from the river with lots of food options. Place itself was clean and spacious. Free coffee in the mornings in the lobby. Staff and everyone was very friendly and greeted us every time we walked by. Would highly recommend staying here. ##### Liam Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Gareth 20 Oct 2023 This was our fifth hotel stay in Japan and the most expensive. It was also the most disappointing. Our room (despite what other reviews say) was small and we had to move because of a very strong smell in our shower. The breakfast counter was dark and unfriendly - any utensils have to be booked out. A note of where to buy supplies would have been really helpful - Fresco Supermarket and Le Bac au Sable were great. There were no other amenities such as a washing machine and generally we felt let down. The staff were friendly but not helpful although we were there 5 nights. Cannot recommend. ##### Gareth Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin 28 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved it Was conveniently located to just about everything we wanted to see Staff was awesome.
