Great price, confortable rooms, maybe more western food options would be nice.
Pros:

Food was very good, the rooms are big enough for people under 1,80m and stays shorter than 3-4. I would recommend this hotel for travelers, the breakfast is good with a lot of options.

Cons:

My wife is a little picky when it comes to food so maybe having scrambled eggs, or meat options well cooked instead of tender or medium rare, as in Central and South America not everybody eats food softly boiled of medium rare. But again I am aware this will not be a problem for many travelers, just picky american eaters.

Pros:

Die Nähe zur Kyoto-Station. 7/11 gleich vor dem Hotel.

Cons:

Das Bett war total durchgelegen. 3 Lifte für soviele Zimmer sind zu wenig. Die Sanitäranlagen waren zum Teil schmutzig. Bei meinem 6tägigen Aufenthalt wurde nur 1x gereinigt. Das Zimmer auch für Japanverhältnisse sehr klein. Wände sind wie Papier. Grundsätzlich nicht schlecht für 1 bis 2 Nächte aber für längere Aufenthalte würde ich nicht mehr dieses Hotel wählen.
