First time for everything...

Room was nice and the free breakfast was surprisingly good, but I cannot get past being made to pay for to access my room one hour early. This is the first time I've ever been made to pay for a early check-in at any hotel and it just left an immediate negative impression that lasted throughout the trip. As well, why would you offer different check-in in times for different customers. 3PM is the regular time for checking in at most hotels for Japan, but here it's at 4pm? Why? It just creates confusion, even the bloke checking me in didn't realise until he nearly handed me the key. Definitely won't be looking to book this chain unless they're no other reason option anytime soon

Toyoko was my go-to for inexpensive accommodations. It’s still excellent for everything except the bed. You’re basically sleeping on a thin mattress pad that is set on top of a box spring. Sadly, my back can’t take that the older I’ve become. Enjoy the savings, young ones, you can’t beat this chain for the value and free breakfast!

We loved our stay here. It is peaceful, with a calm, beautiful Japanese aesthetic. It was very clean. I loved the garden and screen doors. The owner was quick to reply to my messages. We were able to leave our luggage in the building before check in, which was wonderful so we didn’t have to carry around luggage. We were able to walk from the property to Gion district, Chion-In, Philosophers Path, and Nishiki Market. It rained one day and the house had umbrellas for us. It was also conveniently close to train stations and bus stops. Thank you!!!!!

Unbelievable Disappointment

This property is FAR from the Sannomiya train station and HARD to find on foot. Upon checking in, we were VERY dismayed to find NEITHER of the two male reception staff spoke ANY English and could NOT answer ANY of our questions. It was a massive goat-rope from the start. The "Japanese breakfast" was just that, leaving us with rolls and water to eat for breakfast. The room was smallish as we expected and clean. The next morning was the same as the night before at check in with the SAME non-English staff member behind the desk. We ended up taking a taxi to the cruise port because he was unable to direct us to the monorail that goes there. Prior to arriving there (2 months actually), I had advised them we needed late checkout (11am versus their 10am time) only to find they do NOT answer emails. So, we had to pay extra for just one hour. The only positive comment I can proffer is they had free shaving razors in the lobby. Would NEVER stay there again.
