Really clean, large, and comfortable room. The front desk staff were friendly and very helpful in shipping luggage. The bathroom was really nice with the large counter and mirror, with both a shower and jacuzzi tub. Location in Gion was great as well, close to many attractions and steps away from a train station. The only downside was the lack of natural light in the room. Though there is one window, it opens up onto another building’s wall, so we kept it closed the whole time.

This room was very spacious and clean! Staff were helpful and friendly and the coin laundry was a nice addition - much needed for our long trip. The only downsides were that there is some noise and the windows were a little inconvenient to keep open, so less natural light. There also was no breakfast provided but there is a family mart close by. Nice spacious bathroom with all necessities, a mirror with different light settings, hairdryer that worked really efficiently and a bathtub! Overall this stay is hard to beat for the money and convenient location to the nearby station, Gion district and pontocho alley.

Wow! What a deal for the location. We were right in the heart of Gion. This place was a perfect location for us and we were able to stop back if needed something or a rest while exploring Gion. You are right by the bus stations and off of the main bridge and intersection. This place had a spacious shower/bath and a good sized room for Japan. The staff at the front was super nice. It was everything we needed and more. Again, the location really cannot be beat.
