The staff was very friendly and the front desk spoke English which was nice. They provided slippers but they were a bit too small for my feet and they had free products such as face lotion and tea. I really enjoyed my stay. The bed was comfortable and the hotel was in a great location. I also really liked the bathroom. The shower was nice and so was the bidet.

I truly enjoyed the onsen. There arent a bunch of tattoo friendly baths in Kyoto but because we stayed here and the hotel is pretty intimate i got to enjoy a "private" bath without all the hassle. The hotel rooms were also very comfortable for the size, will definitely be back soon!

We arrived a bit early and they were kind and let us store our luggage. The hotel has a nice spot close to some bars, restaurants and 7/11. However, the room was a bit small, compared to what was shown in the picture. We had a room with 4 single beds. But overall it was an okey stay! The people at the reception were helpful and very nice!

The hotel is near Kiyomizu temple and Sannenzaka, otherwise it‘s quite far from Kyoto station (30 min walk or 15-20 min bus ride, depends on the traffic). The staff is lovely and quite helpful. You should think about staying here if you‘re a light sleeper, though, since the hotel is located right at the main road. I would consider staying here again, though.
