Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
The location of the hotel was great. Just a 5 min walk to Kyoto station. The only thing is the cleanliness of the hotel. I booked two rooms. One of the rooms had bread sitting above the fridge which I assume it was left behind from the previous guests. Second, the hardwood floor was dirty with oil stains and smudges. The cleanliness can be improved and avoided. Disappointed.

Liked: Cleanliness
The stay was okay and the hotel was clean, but the bed was too soft and uncomfortable. Breakfast was just average and the pastries were too hard. The front desk and restaurant staff didn’t seem friendly or welcoming. The public bath wasn’t clean in the evening with a layer of soap visible on the water. Overpriced..

We booked a standard twin room, and it was very good. We know hotels in Japan are usually small, but this room was spacious. The place is very nice, clean and modern. There’s a laundry, you can see if it’s occupied from the TV -it’s always busy. But across the street there’s a 24he laundry that saved me. It’s located a block from Kyoto station, and you can walk to many places from there. The area has restaurants, stores and cafes. In the front desk area, you can get coffee and soft drinks for free all day. That’s great, mostly when outside is cold and you want a warm coffee when arriving back.
