適合獨旅
Pros:

地理位置超級好，是在地鐵的出口旁邊，一出地鐵就到飯店了，而且離各大京都景點都很近，讓我可以玩到一半想回飯店休息就回飯店，安全性很好，因為出入不管去哪裡都要刷卡，有自己獨立的房間超級棒的，行李箱也可以完全攤開來
店員態度很好，最後一天即使checkout還可以寄放行李，出去玩回來再來拿，店員看到你不會操作機台也會很有耐心幫我用

Cons:

小缺點只有燈有點太暗，雖然房間有鏡子但化妝不方便

Pros:

- sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal
- sauber
- Gute Ausstattung (Rasierer, Zahnbürste und Zahnpasta, Duschgel, Shampoo, Conditioner, Pyjama, Handtücher)

Pros:

My friend and I love our experience staying at The Pocket Hotel. It was conveniently located next to our favorite Japanese breakfast place.

The accommodation has so many awesome amenities, such as on-site laundromat, free pajamas, slippers, umbrella and the washroom facilities has everything you need to prep yourself in order for you to get ready for your day.

It is clean and safe, and the staffs are very helpful. The location is very convenient and walkable to train stations and tourist areas.

We will definitely stay here again when we visit Kyoto in the future.

Pros:

La comodidad y privacidad de las habitaciones es genial al viajar sin acompañantes. La ubicación es muy conveniente, está muy bien conectada y es fácil moverse a cualquier área de la ciudad.

Cons:

El check-in es mediante unas máquinas automáticas y puede resultar un poco complejo de realizar sin previa experiencia. Aún así el personal puede apoyarte a realizarlo.

Good place for a short stay
Pros:

Great location – easy to reach from the station – one subway stop or about a 20-minute walk. The subway entrance is right next to the hotel, making it easy to get to the station and transfer to lines taking us to destinations throughout Kyoto. Some trains even take you to Nara without having to transfer.
The hotel itself is pleasant - helpful staff from the moment of check-in, comfortable futon beds, cleanliness of the facility.

Cons:

The hotel is great for a short stay. We felt great for the first two days, but the rather cramped rooms became problematic after each day. We lacked some sort of shelving unit to keep our essentials on display, so we had to drag and stow our luggage from under the beds multiple times each day.
We also missed even a small sink in the room to wash our hands, as we had to go to the bathroom every time.
There also seemed to be a slight shortage of women's showers – there was always a line, but this was never a problem in the men's showers.
