Muy cómodo y muy buena ubicación. Bastante limpio también.
Pros:

Desayuno muy básico, deberia haber mayor variación y más opciones (café, pan, etc). Estuve 4 noches y fue siempre el mismo desayuno.

Cons:

La atención en recepción es buena pero mejorable.

Good
Pros:

清潔感と値段の割合で、ポジティブに考えられる

Cons:

ドアノブに貼る清掃、清掃しないを、もう少し選べるように改善、、。

例えば、バスタオルの交換と、ゴミだけ捨てるなど、簡単位表示できるとメモ書き表示必要なし

Non fatevi ingannare dalla posizione o da quello che appare dall’esterno
Pros:

Nulla

Cons:

Se state pianificando un viaggio a Kyoto, NON prenotate all'Hotel LiVEMAX Kyoto Nijojo-kita.
È stata un'esperienza disgustosa che ha rovinato il nostro soggiorno.
Perché evitarlo:
1. Igiene inesistente: Non si tratta di "vecchiaia" della struttura, ma di totale assenza di pulizia. Superfici mai toccate da uno straccio.
2. Manutenzione zero: Balconi usati come cestini dell'immondizia e mai controllati dallo staff.
3. Gestione imbarazzante: Cambiare stanza è inutile perché l'intero standard dell'hotel è il degrado.

Pros:

The room has many things provided.

Cons:

I think the Breakfast can change daily. It was the same onigiri with okapi for every day and other hotel LiveMAX was also exactly the same. Every morning I had same simple box meal contained. I had have it in my room. For the cost of staying it was very poor. The smell of smoking stained in the room that was awful too.
