The staff was very friendly and helpful. Laundry was very easy to do. Really liked the afternoon complimentary Sake cups. It is very central and accessible to a lot of Kyoto. The primary downside I felt was that the bidet was not working properly (low pressure & the seat warmer was broken) and the room took a while to get cool.

This was a great hotel for the price that we paid. The room was a decent size. Amenities were great. We were able to borrow umbrellas for the day as it was crazy hot. The hotel had a sake hour and every night we were able to get a token each and have a cup of sake. Didn’t use those most nights though. Super central to the nishiki markets and other food places. Very safe both morning and night. The main station that we had to use for activities was about a 10min walk

Laundry: will be good to add one or two machines as we had to wait several hours to get an empty machine and use it. Two stairs had busy machines until 11pm Hotel was excellent, area was magnificent, room was very confortable.

It is very central with many shops around including the Nintendo one right next door. The rooms are small for two people but it is expected when located in the city center. Overall, it was a good location.
