従業員の方がほぼ常にいてくれるため安心して泊まれる落ち着いたホテル
Pros:

京都の繁華街まで大人の足で歩いて15分〜20分ほどの立地でした。なので夜も快適に寝れました。
コーヒーも挽いて飲んでみましたが、美味しかったです。
従業員が優しく、常に挨拶もしてくださりとても安心できます。

Cons:

今回大人2人子供3人で泊まったのですが、お風呂があまり
大きくないので1人ずつ順番に入ると冷めてしまいます。
ユニットバスなのかもしれないのか追い焚きも出来ないため
1人ずつ入るたびお湯を抜き足しする必要がありました。
絶妙にシャワーが遠く、ユニットバスとして使うのも少し使いづらかったです。
