Great place to stay in kyoto. Walking distance to Nijo Castle and right next to Sanjo shopping street which has many food options and great family owned stores for all sorts of things.

Good location not too close to the main touristy area (Gion) but walkable and very cute surroundings. Always felt safe.

It is located near Nijo Castle. Close to Omiya Station and Nijo Station. It’s a budgeted hotel, so manage your expectations in terms of cleanliness and staff availability.

Only negative was additional “tourist tax” at check-in

Good location, walking distance to subway. Lots of restaurants and cafe nearby and close to shopping street. Room is a bit small but comfortable.

I did not like the checking in and out conditions. I got the help of somebody for the checking in but I was at a loss for the 5.30 am checking out.

I stayed here for my whole trip (3-night stay to Kyoto and Osaka). The location is walking distance to Nijo Castle, train and bus station. Also the shopping street is just a block away. The property was super clean and quite. Keep in mind, there's no on-site staff at all time, but you definitely can call and ask for help. I highly recommend this to all of you who would like to save money.

A nice and clean hotel with the basics that you need. Rooms is very small as it is the case in most Japanese hotels. Unfortunately there was no wardrobe to put my cloths and I had to keep them in my luggage.

Convenient location. But very small room for the price. No one clean the room or provide clean towels for 3 days.

Go here if you want minimalist provisions. For the most part, no front desk or staff to help you. Someone would usually appear around check in and check out times to assist with the check in/out if necessary. Tiny bathroom with the sink overlapping the shower so that the shower curtain hugs your body. No cleaning service for the three days we were there. The window was completely obscured by a a large metal sheet that was about 2 inches from the window, so no view. Neighborhood was clean and safe, but nothing special. Not that many restaurant options. Oddly, this facility was pretty highly rated. We paid $440 US per night. We were shocked when we got there. The price seems excessive for what we got.
