京都駅から地図アプリで迷わず行けたし、 スタッフの対応もにこやかで丁寧に説明してくれます。 館内のお水はこだわってるとの事で、シャンプー後の髪がサラサラになり驚きました。 ドミトリーのお部屋には鍵がついてますが、利用者が鍵をかけなけれ誰でも入室出来てしまうのは防犯面で気になりました。

來去京都住一晚

這次京都行選擇這家住宿，離京都車站步行約10分鐘，也算是方便到～ 背包客棧環境不錯，很喜歡。員工服務態度很好，英文溝通也可以。 不過住宿地點比較隱藏，一不小心可能就會錯過。早上8點還有簡易吐司可以自行取用。

京都らしく小さな坪庭が入り口にあって、雰囲気が良かったです。京都駅から歩ける範囲ですが最初に日に見つけるのが難しかった。部屋は狭いが十分なスペースがあり、お風呂も家庭用お風呂のちょっと大きめに過ぎないのですが、一人でゆったり入れました。誰かが入ってる時は当然ですが入れません。一人用ですから・・・

A petite and quiet hostel

Got lucky with my friend since we got a room for two in the other building (not the main building). This meant more privacy and more space. Hostel was quiet and clean, and nicely decorated. The bedroom was quite small but okay for a one night's stay. Located close to the main shopping streets and many attractions. Recommend!

저렴하며 멋스러운 숙소

교토에 갈때마다 주로 숙박하는 곳인데 게스트하우스임에도 단독방이 많아서 편리함. 좁은 공간을 효율적으로 설계해서 쾌적하고 화장실과 욕실도 무척 청결함. 버스 정류장이 숙소 바로 앞이라 편하며 교토역에서 도보로 10분이라 교통도 편리함.건물이 두 개인데 하나는 여성전용이라 안전하고 편함
