The location was just perfect for us! 10-15 minute walk to bars, restaurants,shops and Nishiki market. Staff was super helpful, especially Vincent, as checking in and out was done virtually and could be a bit confusing at times. Laundry facilities were appreciated! Perfect little kitchen with everything you need.

If you need space, this is the place. We enjoyed the location as well as the space that gave us ample room to relax. Walkable to everything we wanted to enjoy in the Kyoto area. Washer and dryer was really hard to understand and it took a full 24hours to do one load. Stovetop did not work, and we didn't realize that until after we bought eggs, bread, butter, etc.

Lots of space with dining area and a tatami room. The bed is hard, pillows are flat, beddings are nice, found the pull out couch a little dusty but overall clean. Lacking bathroom amenities like toothbrush/toothpaste, face towel etc. Good location- near shops, restaurants, local attractions, quiet and safe area.
