Cómodo y bien situado
Pros:

Ubicado muy cerca de la estación, fue perfecto.
El buffet espectacular, incluso te hacen en vivo huevos y tortilla. Hay comida japonesa e internacional, no falta detalle.
Todo amplio, moderno y limpio. La lavandería es gratuita.

Cons:

No hay abono del parking contiguo; sería el complemento ideal.

挑不到毛病的飯店
Pros:

京都車站走路約3分鐘,周邊交通、用餐都非常方便。
房間空間充足、燈光明亮且非常整潔乾淨,床鋪枕頭也都軟硬適中。
櫃檯也有能中文溝通的服務人員,26年6月下半四個晚上約5.5萬日幣,性價比很高。
之後有機會會再回訪。

Cons:

912房的冷氣風速大的時候會有異音。

Pros:

Proximity and cleanliness.

Cons:

I had to pay $30 for early check in.
Also, they didn’t provide iron or steamers. You had to pay for that.

Pros:

Casi todo. Buenísimo desayuno. El personal muy atento y resuelve cualquier problema. Lo recomiendo 100%.

Cons:

Falta luz natural. Hay una ventana pero en el baño y no es suficiente.
Y para mi gusto las almohadas son muy duras.
