Great place for our family of 4 to stay in Kyoto. It was close to so many landmarks and the accommodations were clean and really nicely furnished with a big table in the main room. Highly recommend for the price.
Room was very clean ans spacious. It also had a small kitchen and a washing machine and it was really handy. Located right center of Gion and really recommend this place to anyone.
Only thing is that they dont do room clean, If you want room to be cleaned then you have to pay for it.

very clean, large room with a great balcony. Very close to everything but a couple blocks away so it is quieter and easier to get cabs, etc. coffee shop ext door!
We had some issues with check in but the front staff were very patient. Use Apple Pay our CC and online wouldn’t work for taxes.
Hotel was great. Clean and perfectly located. Easy to get on train and conveniently located. Noticed beds are harder out here than in US-just heads up.
Excellent room layout for 4 adults. Great amenities. Adult kids slept in tatami room on futons and said it was comfortable. Good location for trains subway and buses. Walkable to shopping and dining.
We stayed here for 4 nights. The apartmenr is very roomy and great location. 10 min walk to a massive shopping district and a grocery store around the corner (fresco).
The apartment came with pretty much everything needed to cook basic meals

Very modern, nice and clean hotel. It would have been great to have some tea and coffee, though. The one major downside was that the place was hard to find. There are three Minn hotels within a block with very similar names, and this hotel isn’t listed in Google and Apple Maps, so finding the place was a trial and error operation.
Well equipped, if somewhat spartan. Comfortable beds.
Great location - close to many museums, temples, shrines & lots of ships just on the other side of the river.
Very close to Sanjo Station.

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 ☹️
Nice to have laundry in the room, very convenient. Our 2 rooms were nice and big. We take our shoes off, so a little weird to have the bathroom and entry hall in between the two rooms. Love the big room.
The hotel itself is great and it was easy to get to the train station, and quieter than staying on the other side of the river. That being said - if you’re on the basement level, there was an extremely weird smell in the hallway that was seeping into our room on the first day. Thankfully, once we got the AC turned on and sprayed some air freshener, it helped - but it was pretty awful in the hallway the whole time.
