Nice option for budget sensitive travelers

This is a budget hotel, great price but very small rooms as you can imagine. Nevertheless, it was clean and everything was in good shape. Not much of a view but that's ok because we were mainly there to sleep. It's close to everything, no issue finding stores, good restaurants and as close to the train station as possible. Overall a good place to stay but don't expect a 5 star luxury hotel.

Just a short walk from Kyoto Station, Kyoto Aquarium and Nidec Kyoto Tower. Lots of shopping and dining options at Kyoto Station and the area nearby with 7-11 just down the street as well. We selected this hotel mainly for convenience, but convenience aside, it is due for renovations. Room was fairly clean, but starting to show its age compared to some other APA Hotels we stayed at during our time in Japan. It could have been because this APA Hotel was located in Kyoto, but both the interior and exterior was on the older side. On the bright side no central AC, so you can set your own temperature to your liking with the individual AC unit inside the room. If you want absolute quiet or a light sleeper, keep in mind you can hear the trains passing lightly in the distance if you stay at this hotel.

Great location for a place to stay in Kyoto. We loved how close to the train station it was for day trips in the area. The breakfast buffet was great with a good variety of both Japanese and western options for a reasonable price. The room was small (which we expected for Japan) but had all of the necessities needed for our stay. The only complaint was the shower was extremely cramped for my husband who is 5’10”. He could not stand in it and had to crouch down in order to shower. Overall we would go back again and were satisfied with our stay.

Extremely close to the station and convenience store which was very convenient. Area is nice and quiet. We had to figure out on our own that we have to put dirty towels out each morning and the bathroom feels a little small at first, but we adjusted quickly and had no other problems during our stay.

Excellent location, very close to train station in nice area; lots of shopping and dining options. Hotel in very good conditions, rooms very small though; bathroom was very clean, shower very good; everything in bathroom was very good just too small; it would be very uncomfortable for larger size people.
