Good

Hotel near shopping. Basic hotel, okay for a night or two. Odd that you have to leave your key at the front desk anytime you leave the hotel and then pick it up when you get back. Beds could be softer. Convenient to have 7Eleven across the street. Friendly staff.

The building smells like mold and feels like you're trapped inside with humanity. I would suggest maybe doing a mold test since my friend and I couldn’t breathe in our room. It’s a nice hotel and close to the market. Towels smell weird, the water was foggy, and the shower head doesn’t stay still when it’s on.

Favorite place to stay this trip. Very good value and great location if you want to walk to Gion at night.

Great location.

Kyoto was our favourite place in Japan partly due to the hotel's location so close to Nishiki Market, Gion and Nijo jo. It was also convenient to travel to Arishima.

This property is located 4mins walk from the Nishiki Market on the same street. It is directly behind an open air mall and within walking distance of several shrines as well as the trains. Perfect place to stay when in Kyoto. Looking forward to returning

Tiny, smelly, old run-down room and ensuite, but excellent❤️ location, with friendly helpful staff😍 that has free excellent coffee machine at break-out area near reception.

I loved the location, is a 3 minute walk to Nishiki Market and all the food area. The staff are so nice, the room was clean. The only one thing is that one of our beds was uncomfortable.

Very nice place. We will be back again

Very convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff.

Cute interiors

The staff was super friendly. Good location. Room was clean. Overall good value for the money.

My partner and I stayed here for five nights. The hotel was in a great location - just round the corner from the markets, and there were plenty of beautiful boutique stores in the neighborhood too if that’s your thing! While the room was quiet and food for us for the most part, there were a few things that we would have personally preferred. 1. The hotel has just one key per room, and they insist that guests drop their room key off at reception before leaving the building. 2. The cleaning service had to be arranged at the beginning of the trip. So rather than having the signage on the door for fresh towels, etc. guests are asked to inform the reception upon arrival. The towels that we did receive were quite thin and smelled of cooking food - possibly from where they were hung to dry? 3. The bed was not the most comfortable. If you like a soft bed, this may be a problem. 4. We had a room where the window was against the wall of the building next to us. This made the whole room dark round the clock, and it was hard to apply makeup in the morning. 5. The fan in the bathroom wasn’t powerful enough to collect the steam which made it near impossible to dry long hair - especially on the more humid days.

Hidden fee was not expected. Close to all amenities. Staff were nice.

Everything there was amazing

The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Very close to all the shopping and restaurants.

Great location and very friendly staff. Very handy complimentary coffee/tea maker in the lobby. Only complaint is that the 2nd floor room had low light. ZERO light from window and not enough lighting inside. Fridge was adequately cold. But tv was not a smart tv and no English channels. No problems with A/C or hot water. Everything was clean. Bed was comfy but duvet was too short for my feet (and I’m average height).

I like how close it was to the main attractions of Kyoto.

The location is perfect for Nishiki and Teramachi Markets. There is a weird smell in the room when we first entered and the interior design is not pleasing to the eye. Towels had a weird smell too. But the man and lady at the desk are both very friendly and attentive. We had pasta and mango smoothie at their resto Reims Japone and it was quite good!
