Traditional and beautiful Japanese style guesthouse, which was more than I expected. The place was extremely clean and the beds/mats were suprisingly very comfortable. As people have pointed out, this place is small but I didn't see it as a problem. They provide tea and coffee, towels, shampoo etc. Only con of this place would be the fact that there's no airconditioner in the dormitory. How ever, the dormitory area is connected to a balcony which has an AC and a fan. They usually opened the balcony door and turned the AC on at bed time, so the dormitory wasn't too hot at all (even though it got pretty hot during the day). This is something you should consider if you're traveling Japan during the hottest season (I was traveling in the end if June). Over all I had a very good stay!

Location and service is excellent and the pantry area is wonderful with free coffee and tea and bath towel provided! My only grouses are that without heating, the beds are too cold and if you go, pick the upstairs bed rather than the beds below because the beds above creak badly and disturb the person below a lot. Otherwise the bedding is very comfortable. For the price of the dormitory beds though, it’s a good choice but not so comfortable in the winter.

Staff are nice and helpful. Place is slightly grotty. Location is almost unbeatable as it accesses to everything and everywhere in a matter of 8-minute walk to reach a bus or Hankyu Railway.

Nice little hostel. Situated in a great part of central Kyoto. It was a short walk to multiple train stations, tons of shopping and places to eat.

Yululu guesthouse is a very good choice for whoever is on a budget but wants to enjoy what kyoto and Japanese style house have to offer. The location is amazing, the staff is adorable and super helpful, the rooms are beautifully traditional... there is a real desire to make you feel welcome. The two little negative things I can point out are the fact that there is only one shower for 15 guests (!) And that you can hear anything from everywhere, as walls and doors are super thin. So don't expect much privacy. But as a place to stay for one or a couple of nights and visit Kyoto, it's really good.

Although the hotel is a little old and rough around the edges, the location, staff and basic facilities make everything worth it. I would recommend any who would be going to Kyoto to stay here for its friendly atmosphere and excellent staff.

The guesthouse is very traditional and I am unaccustomed to sleeping mats so found it rather uncomfortable. The house itself has sliding paper screens and a beautiful little garden very much in the Japanese traditional style. The floorboards creak and you can hear people moving about and talking. The house rules require that everyone is as quiet as possible after 11pm so it's not an issue. Bathroom and kitchen are shared but very clean.

The walls in the guesthouse are thin so you'll be able to hear everything. It's also a bit taxing to have a shared bottom.

The double room we stayed was so torn and old. The whole room was empty when we arrived, and we needed to set up our table and bed on our own. Not sure if it is due to traditional Japanese culture thing? That is actually okay for us, but the paper doors were obviously old, with papers scratching out and with holes that were covered with stickers... When we opened the cabinet to set up our own bed, the bed sheets and pillows inside were found to have hairs on it... awwwww really a turn off first impression for us. Also the mattress was so thin that it wasn't really comfortable for our back.

Good location. Staff very friendly. Room cosy but clean and somewhere to rest after a long day. Kitchen to make hot drinks or meals. Shared shower and toilets always clean. An excellent budget guesthouse.

Property is located within a few blocks of the Karasuma Oike subway station. It is diagonal from the Museum of Kyoto (NOT the Municipal Museum or the National Museum, those are different). This is a tiny and very basic hostel which will give you a bed, shower, small kitchen, refrigerator use, and small table areas. Also a low cost washing machine and place to hang clothes for drying. The dormitory is mixed gender, but the individual bunks have a moderately effective privacy curtain. You have an individual light. Bedding is a futon, which I found to be hard. I was glad I took an air mattress. Access to the upstairs sleeping areas was via a steep, narrow staircase. The staff was friendly and helpful. There were inexpensive restaurants and convenience stores nearby.
