I loved the stay. Everyone was really pleasant. House rules made sense and kept everything in shape to be usable for eveyone. I loved the simpleness and at the same time it was cosy and welcoming. Neighborhood felt safe The busstation was 2 min. waking. All in all great value for the price. We would come again.

Personally, I loved this location. It was quiet, had plenty of convenience stores around, and the living area was so cozy. I can see how people not prepared for something minimalist may not enjoy this hotel, but I thought it was so fun. It almost reminded me of a summer camp, and the staff was super friendly!

Perfect stay for the price. Very practical and good location within the city. Also highly recommend the bike rental, as it's pricing is also superb (is this even a word^^).

The building has so many holes in it. And the building was freezing. There was barely anyone at the front desk to help. The floors squeaked and the from door of the place wasn’t locked at night.

Great hostel for the price point I'd stay here again. Staff is great and they have all the amenities promised. If booking a private room, book the tatami room and futons not the western bedroom, the mattress springs are deadly. Air conditioners are pretty dusty and have some mold, they could use a cleaning. But overall it's a excellent place to stay on a budget.

I like that I get to experience a nice Kyoto neighborhood. The service could be improved. I felt like the staffs were not friendly every time I said hi. They also turn off the AC in the middle of the might and even if it runs, it’s usually very light so I try to turn on the fan at the same time to avoid sweating. However, it’s hard to sleep due to the fan noises.

The location was not very central, but still ok, with some supermarkets and restaurants close by. The staff were all amazing and extremely helpful and friendly in suggesting things to see and do as well as just socialising and helping with booking transport etc. The hostel is quite old and the dorms especially are very minimalistic and somewhat run down. There was some issue with the air conditioning one of the nights, but it was sorted out for the next night. The bathrooms and showers were clean and there was a nice common area. The kitchen had the needed amenities, and I really liked the fact that they let you use the shower and kitchen even after you check out. It creates a very hospitable, generous, welcoming feeling :)

A lovely, quiet experience with friendly staff. Not particularly social between guests if you're looking to meet a lot of people and certainly not a party hostel but if you want somewhere relaxing and calm to stay whilst enjoying your trip it's perfect! The hostel beds are nice and spacious enough for your bags to stay with you. Lots of nice places close to the hostel and train station's not far so we didn't struggle location-wise. Thanks for having us!

i didn’t like that there was only two showers downstairs (our room was upstairs.) I also didn’t liked being charged a fee when we arrived but that’s understandable. The house was nice otherwise, just fairly old and not very sound proof.

The hotel is very old and dirty. The bathroom is very small and inconvenient. The hotel has gas heater in the reception room. They said it is safe but the smell is very strong.

Great affordable accomodation. We stayed in a Japanese style private room, with very comfortable futon beds. The hostel was close to buses, convenience stores and some shrines as well Nijo castle. We were able to rent bicycles for 500 yen and bike around the city. Downtown Gion was a bus ride away and was great at night with plenty of shopping of dining out options. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend!
