Perfect location in Gion, easy walking distance to convenient bus stops and subway stops, as well as many restaurants/shops. The Shirakawa river was so relaxing to watch. From our room, we could see cranes, turtles and large fish! Excellent decor with art and beautiful lighting, incredibly spacious (3 stories, all with full bath) with nice amenities (coffee/tea, pajamas/robe, umbrellas, laundry!, rooftop deck) and all rooms/floors had separate lockable entry code. I had only minor quibbles about the condition of the townhouse-style room (bedside power outlet not working on first floor, a pair of tattered pajamas). Main complaint was the communication - did not receive any direct communication from establishment until 27 hours prior to check-in, which made me nervous at the time, since my expectation was to receive the access code earlier. I also tried to text/email the night before checkout (to ask for a later checkout time of 11:00 AM), but they never got back to me. When I did call the next morning at 9:00 AM, I was able to talk with someone immediately, however. If you do not do well with stairs, do not book this place! For everyone else who doesn't need a front desk for easy help, this place is a solid value for an amazing location.
因為我們抵達時間遠早於check-in時間,本只是想打電話詢問能不能把行李寄放一樓,對方同意但因為這間並沒有櫃檯所以無法幫我們保證行李安全,我們也表示了解,但沒想到抵達時,打掃的小姐跟我們說她剛剛趕緊把房間打掃好了,就讓我們提前check-in了!這裡讓我們不得不佩服日本人的服務精神!
地點雖然離電車或巴士一段路程,但周遭風景非常的棒,剛好滿滿的櫻花配上小橋與河水,隨便我們拍好拍滿。透過房間的窗戶也能直接觀賞櫻花!窗戶也設計得很有格調,讓人覺得這就是讓人觀賞窗外風景用的窗戶!
另外桌上擺了一本厚厚的多語言介紹書。除了介紹各種京都經典觀光景點的交通方法外,還介紹了房內各種電器使用方法。非常的用心又便利。
要說唯一的缺點是沒有電梯,如果攜帶笨重的行李會不太方便,但還好這棟最高也只有3樓。整體來說,非常滿意!空間大、風景美、服務好!
