Super Lage und gemütliches Zimmer
Pros:

Tolle Lage und sehr hilfsbereites Personal. Ich hatte meine Tasche in einem Uber liegen lassen und das Personal hat sich stark für mich eingesetzt um diese wieder zurück zu erlangen.

Excellent base for exploring Kyoto
Pros:

The location was excellent for exploring Kyoto and it was nice to be in Gion. The hotel looked after our bags for several hours after checkout, which was helpful. Room was a decent size for a city hotel in Japan.

Cons:

Coffee pods were not refilled regularly.

Okay aber im Nachgang hätte ich lieber ein anderes Hotel gewählt.
Pros:

Lage ist okay.

Cons:

Sehr kleine Zimmer. Bad nicht beheizt. Lüftung/heizung im Schlafzimmer sehr laut. Nichts für Menschen, die es komplett leise brauchen. Bin über die vielen positiven Kommentare sehr überrascht und auch über die insgesamt sehr gute Bewertung (nach der ich be meiner Buchung natürlich auch gegangen bin).
