Comfortable, convenient and large space!
Pros:

Large room size, very clean and comfortable to sleep here. We liked the online app check in and check out system, it was lovely to have a code and not to worry about losing a key.

Cons:

The bathroom space was very small, it is difficult to take a shower.

Pros:

Molt ben situat, aprop de varis metros i de Dotonbori. Però a la vegada zona tranquila amb botigues i restaurants aprop. L'habitaciò te una bona mida, una mica petita per dues persones però com al Japó en general.

Cons:

La habitaciò estava al costat d'una carretera i era impossible dormir bé. Se sentien cotxes tota l'estona, molt mal insonoritzat.

Great hotel
Pros:

The location worked well, the room was pretty spacious witht the kettle and the table and the fridge (room for 3 people). The beds were comfortable too. The reception staff were very helpful too.
We explored all major tourist spots starting from the nearby bus stop.

Cons:

I just wish they served breakfast but other than that, everything was great. I will happily stay there again when I am back in Kyoto.
