Clean and comfortable, convenient location. Thank you so much!
Pros:

It was easy to get to and from, felt secure and tucked away. Was very clean and tidy, and 2 sets of towels was plenty for my 7 night stay. Washing machine came to good use, was able to wash and dry all of my dirty clothes with ease. Nice places to eat nearby, and walking distance to the train system was very convenient.

Cons:

No staff available to help in an emergency, and so tucked away that I often passed it at night time. Sometimes trash out the front of the property.

Avoid
Cons:

Raksts

Unfortunately, our stay was very disappointing. The thin walls meant we could hear heavy footsteps and furniture being dragged from the room above, making it impossible to sleep properly. There was also a strong musty, mould-like smell, especially around the carpet next to the bed and the walls.

We reported these issues on the first morning, but no alternative room was available. The hotel only offered a refund for the final night out of our four-night stay, and this offer came late at night, leaving us with virtually no time to find alternative accommodation. Moving would also have caused additional costs and disrupted our existing travel plans.

As a result, we had no realistic choice but to stay until our original checkout date, despite the issues remaining unresolved. The hotel then refused to refund any of the nights we had stayed, including those affected by the problems we reported. Overall, the poor sleep quality, unpleasant smell and lack of an effective solution significantly affected our stay.

I would book it again
Pros:

The location is good, it’s in a quiet area (so no noise at night), enough space for 3 people

Cons:

It was a bit difficult to figure out how to get warm water in the shower. And separating trash 3 ways with only 2 trashbins.

Super Wohnung mit guter Lage
Pros:

Die Unterkunft war sehr gut ausgestattet, sogar mit eigener Waschmaschine und Wäscheständer, was super praktisch war. Die Lage ist ebenfalls vorteilhaft: Viele Tempelanlagen sind in etwa 15 bis 30 Gehminuten erreichbar, und ein FamilyMart liegt nur fünf Minuten entfernt. Ein Bahnhof ist in der Nähe, die Anbindung erfolgt hauptsächlich über Busse. Die nächste Bushaltestelle ist etwa fünf Gehminuten entfernt. Zudem war alles sauber und gepflegt.

Cons:

Schade war, dass der Fernseher trotz der ansonsten guten Ausstattung kein Smart-TV war. Außerdem war die Unterkunft sehr hellhörig, sodass man Geräusche aus der oberen Etage deutlich hören konnte.

Nice and spacious room in good location
Pros:

The room was nice, spacious and clean. Advantage is also a private washing machine in a room. Good location, walking distance to Kiyomizu-dera

Cons:

There were only two small trash bins which are not enough for more than one night stay. I would also appreciate more hangers for towels in the bathroom

Great location - would stay here again!
Pros:

Amazing location - clean and well equipped. Spacious and easy check in guide provided. We loved it! Fantastic to have a washing machine and space to hang clothes to dry. Great value for money!

Cons:

It was a little musty in the corridor and due to the enclosed shower room - but we used the fan and the air con and it was no problem. Perhaps slightly noisy on the ground floor but you’re in a city!
