Uncomfortable

I changed hotels midway through stay. I did not like this hotel. Never had pillows so uncomfortable, I couldn’t sleep. My room smelled of curry house downstairs. There was also political alt right propaganda in the hotel room. I then googled why this would be, the owner is a political activist for alt right so this hotel chain is politically allied. I did not like this as I’m an immigrant and have liberal values

Great property in an ideal location for transport. Staff are friendly and accommodating and the hotel generally is kept clean and welcoming. Our only slight negative was the room size however we knew this prior to booking so not a complaint in any way.

This was a great hotel to stay in during my first trip to Kyoto. The transportation options are great, as you can get to a bus stop without crossing a street, and Kyoto Station is a little over a block away. Dining options are abundant. There is a restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. Kyoto Station also has numerous dining options, a lot of which are open later compared to a lot of places in Kyoto. The bed large, especially for one person. I had enough room to store two, possibly 3 suitcases at the foot of the bed. The bathroom was nice and clean. I never once got any hint of cigarette smoke in the room, which is fantastic. The staff are all very kind. Y. Ishida is a particularly stand out staff member. She helped me with what I needed with a smile on her face, and I never had any communication issues with her. My only complaint was with the dryer in the laundry room. There are two washers and two dryers. The washer worked fine, but the right side dryer didn’t dry my clothes well at all, and it left a lot of leftover lint. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel itself was pretty decent, but could be better if it was thought out more. The rooms are just SLIGHTLY too small to make it really difficult to maneuver around a 2nd person. Luggage access was tricky too. The bathroom has a decent shower. The toilet was fine. Everything was clean. My biggest gripes were the HVAC and the technology in the room. The air is centrally controlled so it is either blasting heat or blasting a/c and you don't get to decide which one. Can't have just the fan on for white noise. Worst was the tv/wifi situation. The TV box acts as the wifi for the room and the TV controller and does neither particularly well. Wifi cut out multiple times and had to be restarted manually which takes ten minutes. The TV just drops out randomly while casting to it. Not very good. Otherwise, the location is great, very conveniently near Kyoto station, close to tons of great restaurants, and walkable to lots of cool spots. I'd stay in the area again, but I would probably look elsewhere for my accommodations.

Excellent location close to the station. I arrived late at night in Kyoto and knowing the hotel was 2 min away from the station was the best. Super convenient for those who are not spending more than 3 nights in Kyoto to go continue explore other cities in Japan.
