Location is OK. Nice view. I might have done better with using a bus app (which I never had time to see if it even exists) but I mostly needed to get to Kawaramachi/Shijo area, so I walked the 20 minutes to the Hankyuu train station to get to the central part. Very clean and although several people shared the floor I was on with one bathroom, shower room and kitchen, I never had to wait to do anything I wanted. Spacious room with comfortable large bed.

I arrived exactly at 4:00 p.m. as I told them I would but nobody was there. I made myself comfortable and logged into the wifi which was prominently displayed. I caught up on some e-mail and other work but really could have used my time better because I had other things to do in Kyoto. Finally after 45 minutes I found the phone number from my e-mail and called somebody who was very apologetic, but it still took another 15 minutes for somebody to get there and check me in. They put me in a room, but then quickly asked if I'd like to go to the 4th floor and I assumed it was an upgrade because I had to wait so long. It was fine. Although not directly above the major city street below, the double glass doors kept the noise quite low. The second room also had a very strong fragrance while the first room had none. I was inclined to ask to go back since a find fragrances really affect me a lot but decided against it due to time constraints. I lost an hour waiting, but the stay was comfortable and uneventful otherwise.

Great location near station and restaurants, spacious room, tourist info available at reception

DIdn't know about the breakfast (which was oK, since I brought my own). Wa it served at the 3rd or 4th floor? I was a t the 5th.

The pillow in my room (506, I think( was really uncomfortable. Way too hard and bulky. Please consider to change with a "normal" hotel pillow, so that guest can chose which one to use.

Pretty big room for two. Possibility to do laundry for little money. Possibility to cook (however, there was no cutlery). The host was helpful and friendly. Bike rent for reasonable price.

Very noisy because the kitchen, toilet and bathroom is just next to all of the bedrooms. We had to share the bathroom and toilet (1) with at least 10 others. Very expensive for what you get but I think that was because of the golden week. Bed was not very comfortable. Location not great, a bit far from everything, but there's a bus stop close by.
