Alloggio molto economico per chi non ha pretese e budget limitato
Pros:

La posizione era comoda, con la fermata del bus esattamente davanti, e la linea 10 che collegava perfettamente con la stazione dei treni.
Usare la lavatrice è stato sicuramente un plus imprescindible per noi che viaggiavamo per settimane! (a pagamento)
Il prezzo bassissimo è stato sicuramente un plus

Cons:

La camera era troppo piccola per un gruppo di 4 persone con bagagli per un lungo viaggio.
Inoltre non vi erano supporti per le valige o per riporre gli oggetti, era tutto per terra.
La cosa peggiore era una presa di corrente unica in tutta la stanza, collocata su una parete! Per fortuna è stata fornita una ciabatta da collocare al centro, ma comunque insufficiente.
La cosa peggiore (e per 4 notti è stato proprio terribile) era un costante e sgradevole odore di acqua marcia proveniente dal condizionatore!
La posizione era buona, ma comunque richiedeva spostamenti di almeno 20 minuti per raggiungere qualsiasi luogo di interesse.

Great value hotel in the centre of Kyoto
Pros:

Excellent location near the Kyoto center, between the train station and the imperial palace. From this hotel you can go to many places by foot, and a subway station is also nearby.
Nice room with Japanese-inspired design: tatamis and futons.
Comfortable bathroom with bath tub.
