Onsite self laundry and private onsen were nice. Rooms were spacious and having a kitchen was useful for our family. Great location to walk all over Gion and easy access to Sanjo train station. Hotel was renovated recently and very clean. Luggage storage and free umbrella use were nice added amentities.
The room is like a small apartment, it was nice and spacious for my family with two teens. Great location in the Gion district and 5-10 min walk to local train stations.
The location was perfect, walking distance from key attractions. The mini apartment was very clean and functional. The kitchen had everything you need for breakfast or a light meal. Staff was present every morning and was very helpful. Definitely I would recommend it.
The location was just perfect for us! 10-15 minute walk to bars, restaurants,shops and Nishiki market. Staff was super helpful, especially Vincent, as checking in and out was done virtually and could be a bit confusing at times. Laundry facilities were appreciated! Perfect little kitchen with everything you need.

Room was lovely and well appointed and the location was perfect for walking and exploring. Definitely a nice place to stay.
Convenient location. Having fridge, freezer, microwave and toaster, stove and kitchen essentials was super helpful. Enough space for 3 adults. Everything in working order.
If you need space, this is the place. We enjoyed the location as well as the space that gave us ample room to relax. Walkable to everything we wanted to enjoy in the Kyoto area. Washer and dryer was really hard to understand and it took a full 24hours to do one load. Stovetop did not work, and we didn't realize that until after we bought eggs, bread, butter, etc.
Lots of space with dining area and a tatami room. The bed is hard, pillows are flat, beddings are nice, found the pull out couch a little dusty but overall clean. Lacking bathroom amenities like toothbrush/toothpaste, face towel etc.
Good location- near shops, restaurants, local attractions, quiet and safe area.

Great location and a nice room. Quiet and clean. Good for families. Check-in could could have been better.
Nice hotel room with a kitchen. It was very close to the Gion district and easy to access the Sanjo train station. We traveled as a family with 2 young children. The place can feel small, but Ok for a short stay.
