Hotel and room were fine. Unfortunately staff did not speak English but were good about translating instructions etc. My complaint is with the public bath. Mold growing in various places aggressively, cracked tiles. Needs to be completed scrubbed down, floor to ceiling and renovated even.

Very nice stay, excellent ambience. We felt well. Only those futons may be much thicker - we often slept like on tatami mattes only. 😀

If you want an old old style, real Japanese experience with a lovely tatanmi room with easy access to central Kyoto, then it's great. We loved it. Very little English spoken (not a problem for us), and could be difficult to find if you don't arrive by taxi, but we really enjoyed our stay.

Loved the overall look of the property, with the tatami mats in the rooms, the tea set tables, and the paper sliding windows. The location is very accessible to places like Nijo castle, and Nishiki Market. Would love to stay here again on my next visit to Kyoto.

Hotel intimista

A localização é boa, a 5min do metrô. Excelente para ir a pé ao Palácio Imperial e Castelo Nijo. Hotel antigo, porém bem conservado, confortável, mais intimista que esses de rede de hotéis. Tem o banho público, lavanderia, que torna tudo mais prático e agradável. Sem café da manhã. A recepção fica no 1⁰ andar, sem acesso por elevador. Pode ser um problema para quem tem muitas malas. Pudemos deixar as malas antes e depois do check-in sem problemas. Equipe atenciosa.

편안했습니다. 전기 충전 시설이 부족한 건 아쉽습니다.

전체적으로 좋았습니다. 전기 콘센트가 2개 밖에 없는 점은 좀 아쉬웠어요.휴대폰이라든지 와이파이 등 충전 시 불편함만 빼면 전체적으로 좋았습니다.
