Great apartments in a really good location to explore Kyoto
Pros:

Good location, 2 stops from Kyoto station, close to lots of restaurants. Walkable to Gion but close to bus stops if you prefer not to walk. Loved the happy hour - good opportunity to chat to other guests. Coffee machine in lobby area also great. Apartment was spacious & had everything we needed - great having 2 bathrooms as we were 2 couples travelling together. Liked the booklets giving hints on restaurants nearby.

Cons:

Could hear children running around on floor above us.

Great place for a family to stay in Kyoto.
Pros:

Great to have a bit of extra space for our 8 night stay in Kyoto. We stayed in a 2 bedroom suite, which had 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, dining table and lounge as well as a washer/dryer in the room. It was perfect for our family (2 adults and 2 teens). Location was also very good, close to train station therefore easy to get to everywhere we needed to during our time in Kyoto.

Cons:

A good space with 3 teenagers, really friendly and knowledgeable staff. My husband and enjoyed the happy hour also
Pros:

It is tucked away next to a main road with subway access a couple blocks down. Plenty of restaurant options in walking distance and a 7-11 around the corner.
No issues with uber finding the hotel either.

Cons:

Although it is right on the karasuma subway line, it’s another 5 blocks to the Tozai line where we had to transfer trains.
