This is a hidden gem of a hotel. It’s an amazing value with a large comfortable sized room (even by American standards), a gorgeous view of the mountains, kitchenette, spa bathroom, and housekeeping every 3 days, which usually you don’t get at apartment hotels. The free amenities are actually better than at some mid-tier hotels. Most of all, the staff are absolutely wonderful with their service and the lengths they go to for the guests. They were so personable and flexible with anything I requested. The only reason I can think of that this hotel isn’t more well-known is because it faces a small inside street, which makes road noise non-existent! But the location is still very convenient and close to a major subway stop. I hope the next time I want to stay here, there’s still availability!

Staff were great and helpful. Room very spacious with a kitchenette. Clean bathroom. Room was clean but there was lot of hair and dust hiding on the grey carpet area and I need to borrow the floor tapes from the reception to clean it. Actually it should be 9 out of 10.

The hotel was very helpful in assisting us receiving our suitcases through Airporter service. Furthermore, they assisted us in paying cash for a parcel delivery that we organised from Tokyo. We booked two three night bookings separately and they made it very easy to link the two bookings so we did not need to change rooms. The room was spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed staying there for 6 nights. The smart TV allowed us to easily stream YouTube on TV. The only thing that I wish they did was service the room every two days rather than every three days. The distance to the subway station was not as close as we would have liked but it is an easy walk on a wide flat pathway majority of the way so easy for wheeling suitcases. The hotel is in a lovely quiet neighbourhood. Whilst not surrounded by shops, restaurants and cafe, there are still many variety of eatery options in the surrounding area within short walking distance. We felt the hotel felt like a home in Kyoto. It was perfect for a family of four with the amount of space it offered.

Staff: very friendly Room: very clean, but the room we chose the hallway was narrow, hard to have luggage there and walk in. But once you walk in, it’s spacious. Amenities: they have laundry onsite, the face wash, lotion, toothbrush everything you need is in front where the lobby is at. Location is good.

The best part was that it has its own laundry room. We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They went over and beyond to help us. We needed help with suitcase shopping. One of the staff member exactly told is where to go and we found some amazing deals in that store. The lobby had all the essential goodies like coffe/mouthwash/toiletries etc

Super spacious and exactly as pictured! There was a bunk bed along with a dining table with all the necessities to a kitchen. There were many convenience market options including 7/11 and family mart about 5min walk. Safe neighborhood and friendly staff. The hotel is about 10mins from the train station but it's in a pretty quiet and safe location. Would recommend 100% for people travelling with family and kids!
