10/10 Exceptional

Perfect stay

Our stay was amazing. We booked a shared room and it was comfortable. The communal bathrooms were very very clean and very very nice. The water pressure and temp are perfect. 10/10 recommend. I wish we were in the area longer!

Excellent family accommodation

A bunk room was perfect for our family of four. The whole hotel was kept spotless during our stay. Staff were friendly and helpful, and a late check-in (11pm) caused no problems. Our rate included a decent breakfast (western or Japanese style) at the friendly restaurant a few seconds from the hotel. Great location right next to Gojo subway station, and easily walkable from Kyoto station too.

10/10 Exceptional

This is my second time at this hotel, and all I can say is how wonderful it is! Very convenient and affordable. I don’t like the small rooms, but that’s what a hostel hotel it’s all about. I recommend a lot if your just saying for a few days and don’t have many bags. Maybe as a start up hotel!
