We stayed here for convenience in Kyoto. It is a budget hotel, so the room is extremely small as well as the bathroom. But the cost is reasonable.

Clean but VERY tiny room. No closet or drawers, just two hooks with a few hangers. Staff were ever present but focused, oddly, on having everything done electronically. My phone would not load an app they use for luggage and they seemed a bit put out by that.
