Clean and spacious room for our family! Great location with convenient access to transit. Was a little disappointed the hot tub and sauna were too hot to enjoy ☹️
We had a basement terrace room and there was a strong smell that would not go away. It was the the first night and then the second night we had to leave the hotel. Our room was right across from the sauna and the smell there was so bad too. Great big open room, but we couldn’t deal with the smell. I will say the young woman who helped us was very kind and responsive.

Our room was very clean and the washer/dryer saved us a trip to the laundromat. My family loved the multiple rooms. Accessibility to the Gion market made it easy. We loved Kyoto and all it has to offer.

This property is somewhat self service because there is no regular front desk person to help 24/7. The room was clean and spacious with great amenities including a full kitchen and in room laundry facilities. The staff was very friendly and helpful when called upon.
