This guest house is in a lane without English name, so you better pin down its location to find it. In order to get to your room you have to get your shoes off, get into slippers, go 6 steps, change to outdoor slippers, go 12 steps, change to indoor slippers, and get up about 12 stairs with your luggage to your room that has a bathtub sized for a year years old. luckily did not rain, otherwise my socks would have been heavily soaked, during this journey. And all these for $ 80. She called it Japanese custom, and I say for $ 25 I accept, but for $80? who are you kidding!!!!! On top of that, missing the 10 am check out time by 15 minutes cost extra 2000 yen/15 min Imagine what kind clientele frequented her place in the past to implement such a rule. In addition to this there no hot water supply all day.

This hotel is a good example of the saying 'you get what you pay for'. We stayed for nearly a week in winter. Clean accom with basic facilities and friendly staff. Pros: close to subway, some local restaurants and bars very close, air con, wifi in rooms. Cons: unsightly water damage to ceiling, tatami mats had strong odour, low light in bathroom, uncomfortable futons and pillows. Ok accom if you'd like to save some dollars, but nothing fancy.

First of all, it must be said that hotel rooms in Japan are small. Traditional rooms like ones at Kyoto Costa Del Sol, with tatami mats, make living in small space and sleeping on futon mattresses comfortable. You can fold the mattress and, voila, there's space for you to use. I stayed in a single room with private cubicle-style bathroom which was a plus. The hotel manager, Miki-san, is friendly and attentive. She speaks English fluently and is always very helpful with anything that make my stay comfortable. Thank you so much, Miki-san. The hotel is located near Gojo subway station on Karasuma Line which is super easy to get to other parts of Kyoto. Miki-san has those informations for you too. There are lots of convenient stores around, place to get breakfast and coffee (super important) and other meals. Fresco supermarket nearby stocks great bento and other Japanese food and snacks. Highly recommended.

Pleasant stay, the staff is very nice and speaks English, a nice onsen just around the corner, the room was nice (Japanese style room), plus there is a kitchen and seating area where you can relax.

The hotel is close to Kyoto Station, just about 15 minutes' walk from there. And the owners were very helpful. They also charged very low for the washing machine.

No complaints for what I paid. Very centrally located, close to Kyoto station and several bus stops. Great place to stay.

This an excellent place to experience Japan as the locals do. Very friendly personnel and extremely clean.

Very good. The staff is really helpful and kind. Place close enough to the station

The only disadvantage is that no hot water after midnight until 6am. We were there during the season changing from winter to spring thus, the weather was still cold. We went out early in the morning and back to room for rest only at midnight. Although the owner did inform us upon check in, it was quite inconvenient for us whose main purpose of trip is sightseeing outdoors. However, the tatami room promised a quality sleep.

This was the best value stay I found in Japan. It was very clean and the hotel owner was very nice and helpful. Absolutely no complaints. Close to the subway and JR station.

Average hostel. No real complaints but not a particularly great place.Everything was clean and they cleaned our rooms during our stay. Felt safe. 10 mins walk from Kyoto JR. Right next to a subway station as well.

Very pleasent stay. Certain a family-run business, which had a nice feeling to it. The owner was very helpful with advice.

Nice place and good host.

房間設施簡單, 但尚算舒適 ! 如果習慣酒店的, 可能不太喜歡這類房間, 只是一個體驗, 是可以的 !

일본 가정집을 개조한 숙소에요. 다다미방을 체험할 수 있다는 게 장점. 위치는 지하철 시조역에서 도보로 5분정도인데 택시기사도 잘 못찾아서 무척 헤맸어요 가을 단풍 시즌에 간거라 숙소 구하기가 무척 어렵더라구요 호텔 가격이 터무니없이 비싸서 할 수 없이 선택했는데.. 불편한 점이 많았어요. 그닥 청결하지도 않았구요. 다만 여주인이 무척 노력하고 있다는 인상은 받았습니다. 24인치 캐리어를 직접 2층까지 들어서 옮겨주어 미안하고 고맙고 그랬네요.

房間簡潔乾淨舒適，服務人員親切有禮，交通方便 住在三樓要搬行李稍不方便 沒有電視，個人淋浴間衛浴非常小 其它都很棒

我是9月7日入住，那天我們遲了去民宿，我們打了電話告訴老闆娘我們晚上才能到，她的態度很好，雖然洗手間太細，浴缸看似殘舊，但房間算是整潔，我們都住得不錯，廚房是共用的，吹風機可以自行在走廊拿取，整體都不錯

호텔이란 느낌보단 원룸과 거의 비슷하지만. 정말 직원분이 친절하셔서 좋았습니다!!! + 공간이 생각보다 넓어서 좋았어요 그래도 부엌, 냉장고 같은 경우가 공용시설이라, 좀 불편하긴했습니다:) 가격대비 정말 좋았어요!

房間看的出稍有年紀，但是整理的很乾淨，完全沒有異味或奇怪的生物XD該有的基本設備和服務也都算充分。雖然大廳處略小，但是房間空間很大，又能體驗日式房舍的榻榻米。如果不是非常要求住宿品質需很高級的遊客，就還蠻推薦的！而且價錢便宜又離多個景點不遠！唯一的小缺點大概就是check-in時間只到晚上9點，要注意時間。

Very good
