I and my friend had a pleasant stay. We were very grateful for their luggage delivery service because we arrived early in Kyoto before check in time. The staff were very pleasant to engage with. Our room was clean and organized and very cozy, it felt like home. Nobody would regret this place, as it is also close to a bunch of places.

This hotel was the best one. It was a comfortable size and the shower was great. The location is not great if you want to use the train but we used taxis so it was fine. There is a 7-11 down the street and some local restaurants that are close by that were very good. Also several coffee shops. A Buddhist temple was right across the street. Make sure and visit.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was clean and the toiletries and towels are supplied well but the room is too crowded for 3 single beds in such a small space. It’s really hard to sleep as well because the bed is hard for my back especially I have a back injury. Location wise, it’s convenient except that the buses are always full and I am on wheelchair. We always take a cab instead for travelling with a wheelchair.

Had to pick up key from another nearby Sakura Simple easy check in with lovely staff member , Lift to 4 th floor,clean ( apart from carpet and sofa stains ) excellent shower and toilet area, shower room acts as a drying room overnight so washing machine was well used with our 7 night stay , we were disappointed with the lack of kitchen accessories with such a well set up kitchen , no bowls for noodles or salad just 3 small plate sized flat plates , no wine glasses ,colander or eating knives just a sharp knife , we requested a few extra items and were told they were unavailable, beds & pillows firm but relatively comfortable however the lounge (3 bed ) was very low and uncomfortable . A little way away from Kyoto train station but well connected with the 206 bus just around the corner, nearby 7/11 and a bit further 15 min walk is a well stocked Frescos

Loved this modern-japanese inspired place, very spacious bedroom and sofa area with a TV, and a separate kitchenette with fridgefreezer, microwave, kettle, sink, and electric hob. The bathroom was japanese, with a bidet toilet, separate sink, mirror, washer, and a bath-room/shower-room that had its own heating/cooling/ventilation. The area was a bit away from any train or subway but a quiet area which was pleasant to walk and only 10 minutes to the local subway, and enough options for food and convenience stores locally.

Everything is good here but pay special attention to your emails before you arrive. Make sure you read the instructions well for checking in upon arrival. This hotel will have no reception area, no person to talk to and you will need your hotel main door pass code and you key cards to you room can be at the guest area from the train station or from the near by Sakura Hotel Ryu which is a block away.

Comfortable stay with good in-apartment facilities

Logistics worked exactly as advertised, our luggage got delivered to our accommodation. Our apartment was nice and had all the facilities advertised. In the middle of a longer trip it was especially pleasing to have a washing machine, and the drying facility in the bathroom. On the downside, with three beds, there's very little space to open suitcases. Services in the immediate vicinity are limited, but at least the mandatory convenience store is nearby.
