Everything about this property is excellent. The bathrooms and facilities are nearly new, the bed is enormous and comfortable. The setup technology is next level, with iPods controlling lights and bed. The location is very good too, right next to the Nishiki market, major shopping areas and the Gion district.

Decent fittings, but very poor service

Generally clean and well equipped, but has the most aggressive check out policy I’ve ever seen - it’s at 10am, and by 10:10 they have someone pushing you out and charging late check out fees. The social area is well equipped if you are working, but not designed for travelling. Feels like you’re hanging out in a WeWork.

Good hostel

The pod was very comfortable and had an air vent coming in which was great. I dont recommend the breakfast as it only had a couple of small pastries to choose from or yogurt or soup.

Honestly the nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed at… truly wasn’t expecting it to be this nice. The amenities are clean and great. The location is super convenient - near restaurants and metro. Very accommodating. And i slept so comfortably and peacefully. Everyone is respectful of your space and area. Only thing is how it might be difficult to get out the space when your bed it flat. So if you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, you will most likely have to bring your bed up right first. If that is okay, then you would love this place!

This property is easily reachable from the Kyoto Station by bus. Less than a 15 minute ride. It is within walking distance of the Nikishi Market. There is a women’s only floor available and can only be accessed with room key. The bed was wonderful. It was able to raise and lower by remote control. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were amazing! There is a kitchen area where you could prepare food. The breakfast was not really worth the price of the ticket. There was yogurt and juice and some breakfast breads. They also served soup for breakfast. There were NO proteins..eggs, bacon sausage. And no fresh fruit. There is a wonderful bakery& cafe within 4 blocks. Definitely worth the walk. Overall, I was very pleased and would stay here again.

Great social stay

Really good social place to stay. Was expensive due to cherry blossom season though and not worth the amount it cost, but outside this season would be good value. Room clean and comfy, bed moves between sofa and bed using control which was fun, only issue is not much room at foot of bed when bed down, tight squeeze to get out of pod. Free tea coffee and hot choc nice and kitchen clean and free to use too
