    My stay at the hostel was so close to a bunch of restaurants as well as the subway line and just a 15 minute walk to the Kyoto airport so it was really convenient! I got free towels everyday and laundry was just only 200 Yen for the laundry pods. The hostess (I'm sad I didn't get her name) was nice and kind as to show me how everything works. Japanese isn't required but it was nice for me to practice some of it with her. Definitely would stay here again when I come back to Kyoto.

    It's basically a hostel with single rooms. Mostly quiet but it's impossible to close the room door without making a noise that everyone can easily hear. The price is good but there is a significant cost for late check-in.

    This place had a great location, close to the train station and no more than 30 minute walks or train rides to most tourist attractions and food. Staff were super friendly and it was very clean. However, if you are used to a softer or thicker mattress, the beds will hurt your back. My partner and I were in a lot of pain after our stay because of the bed and pillow. It was an overall great stay but the beds could hurt you if you’re staying for a longer period.

    Price and location the real draw

    Basically a self serve guesthouse. Was not used to waking 3 flights down to take a shower, no hanger for towels at the public washing basin and inside pf public toilet, and no TV. But after a couple of days I got used to it and it was OK. Location very convenient ot subways and buses. Price is right also.
