The twin beds are fantastic. A very quick walk to Karasuma Oike station (in itself 5 mins from Kyoto Station) made using it as a base of operations an absolute pleasure. Staff were lovely and, when needed, had strong bilingual skills.

We asked for a room with washing machine since we packed lightly for a 3 week trip. However their washing machine didn't work, it was way to small and the drying functiom took around 3 hours and didnt have much options to configure the temperature (shrank some clothes because it was too hot). We had to go to a laundromat a couple of blocks to finish doing our laundry, think twice before paying the extra for a room with a washin machine. Aside from that, breakfast is good and buffet style, checkin/checkout process is seamless and staff speaks english.

Excellent hotel, fairly clean room although it seemed the room hadn’t been vacuumed after the previous occupant checked-out, but other than that, the room was clean and comfortable and in a great location. Would totally stay here again

A really nice place.

The hotel was awesome, the amenities really set this hotel above the rest. A washer, microwave, mini fridge. A sake and coffee station in lobby. The only downfall no full maid services, so if you are not out by 11am you are not getting clean towels or your trash taken out

No train noise as the nearby transportation (subway) is underground. I used ta-q-bin service from Tokyo to this hotel and the hotel staff conveniently placed the transported luggages into our room. Since I was staying at the annex, I had limited interactions with staff, but they were pleasant. Had to subtract some points for cleaniness as our room had stains on the carpet and black hair dye splatters over the bathroom walls. I understand those cannot be simply wiped off, but I expected more or at least a heads up from staff. Otherwise, the room and bathroom were clean.
