rapport qualité/prix/situation imbattable !
Pros:

Probablement le meilleur rapport qualité/prix de mon séjour au japon. Chambre très spacieuse, lits excellents. Bien situé (Très proche du métro et de la gare). Idéal pour une famille de 5 (chambre de 3 super grande).

Cons:

la salle de bain de la chambre pour 2 est un peu petite (mais très fonctionnelle), mais c'est vraiment un détail par rapport à l'excellence du reste.

Great base for exploring Kyoto
Pros:

The location is flawless, sitting right on top of the subway station and surrounded by great local restaurants and 24-hour convenience stores, making evening strolls easy and safe. The breakfast is a massive highlight, offering a delicious and extensive buffet.

Cons:

While everything is exceptionally clean, the beds are comfy and the service is professional, the rooms are quite small and feel a bit dated.

スタッフとロケーションは最高。少し気になる点はあったが、ぜひまた利用したい。
Pros:

地下鉄の駅からすぐで、周囲にコンビニやお店も多く、観光にとても便利でした。
スタッフの方の対応が丁寧で安心できました。WiFi もシャワーも快適でした。

Cons:

入り口入ってすぐの、通気孔カバーにたまったホコリと、換気扇浴室に換気扇がないこと(←たぶん)、浴室の木のドア枠のカビが、気になりました。
あと、全身が写る鏡があるといいなーと思いました。
