24.11.06We stayed at this hotel during our visit to Kyoto, and while the location was convenient—just a few blocks from Kyoto Station—the experience was a bit mixed. Our room was on the 4th floor, but the elevator only went up to the 3rd floor, so we had to carry our luggage up a narrow staircase, which was a bit inconvenient. We booked two rooms, both compact but suitable for two adults and a child. Unfortunately, one of the rooms had a noticeable cigarette smell. On the plus side, both rooms and bathrooms were tidy and well-maintained when we arrived. The area surrounding the hotel is great, with several restaurants and convenience stores nearby, making it easy to find food or essentials. Overall, it was a decent stay, but the issue with the cigarette smell and the elevator situation could be improved.
