The breakfast buffet was very good; we actually looked forward to it. Easy to use laundry machine that washes and dries in the same machine that you can lock with your own code. Very convenient and stress free. Short walk to the station. We’ll definitely stay here again when in Kyoto. Highly recommended.

Hotel is clean. Close to station. Rooms and bathrooms are very small. Other people might prefer a hard bed. I have a bad back and woke up with a terrible back pain from the bed being so hard. The pillows are also very hard. Check-in and out is all electronic and feels impersonal, although staff is there to assist with any questions and most of them speak some basic English that allows some sort of communication.

I spent one night here due to the proximity of Kyoto station. Property was decent for the most part. Property was very clean and near places of interest. A few important things about the room. Outlets are 2 pronged, so that could be problematic. My biggest concern was access to electricity. In order to power the room you had to insert your key card and leave it there. When inserted power came on and when removed it went off. The problem with this is to turn of the lights you had to remove the card, that in turn shut off electricity to outlets. This made it impossible to charge any electronic devices, very odd set up.
