Hotel carinissimo in una delle zone più belle di Kyoto
Pros:

Ho adorato questo hotel! Posizione veramente ottima, a pochi minuti a piedi sia dal Kiyomizu-dera che dal quartiere di Gion, in una stradina tranquilla ma a pochi metri da una delle strade principali di Kyoto con le fermate dell'autobus per andare ovunque e con ristoranti e cafè. Dalla stazione sono circa 20 minuti con il bus. Di sera è una zona veramente tranquilla e piacevole in cui passeggiare. Staff gentilissimo e amichevole. La camera per 3 persone era spaziosa, per gli standard giapponesi, con anche una cucina, microonde, e un bel bagno. Lavatrice in camera molto utile. Ci tornerei sicuramente, adoravo passeggiare intorno al quartiere di sera con il silenzio :)

Cons:

Forse il fatto di non avere la pulizia in camera ogni giorno, ma ogni tre giorni, è un po' sconveniente perchè il cestino in camera non è enorme e si riempie facilmente dopo 1-2 giorni con 3 persone in stanza, e non essendoci molti cestini in giro cominci ad accumulare rifiuti molto velocemente, ma in realtà non è un problema grave.

The staff is very helpful. And because we traveled in the raining season in Japan, the easy-lending service of umbrella
Pros:

It has a kitchen and other functions you need as a traveler: washing machine, balcony…

Cons:

It closes the road, sometimes you hear the cars passing and people talking from balcony. But if you close the balcony, the room is very quiet.
