良かったです
Pros:

清潔、スタッフが丁寧。四条駅から近い。近くの食事できる施設に近い。コーヒーが美味い。

Cons:

夜、ホテルの部屋の外の廊下がややうるさかった。
朝食のトレイに汚れがあって、新たなトレイに変えたが、そのトレイにも洗い残し?が着いていた(ただ、スタッフに申し出れば、さらに新たなトレイに交換してくれた)。

Great value. Quiet. Great location and a fine breakfast.
Pros:

The hotel was very modern and seemed to be soundproofed very well. Although my room was near the elevator, I was undisturbed and didn't hear a thing. The bed was incredibly comfortable. I didn't want to get up. The breakfast was exceptional with a fine selections of Kyoto style cuisine as well as some western foods. It really was just a few minutes from the exit of the subway. If you take the exit that they mention, you can reach ground level via an elevator. Very convenient if you have luggage.

Cons:

The room was smaller than I would like, but that is normal for an hotel such as this in Japan. I understand that.

Pros:

Cerca del transporte público, para poder ir a diferentes sitios de Kyoto. También se encuentra cerca de diversas tiendas. La habitación y el baño era amplio y la cama cómoda. Hay lavadoras y secadoras en la cuarta planta que funcionan con monedas de 100 yens. El desayuno estaba bueno y era variado.

清掃は隅まで油断せず
Pros:

ロケーションも良く、部屋も浴室も広かった。
また、浴室風に物干し用(タオルやボディタオル用として使用しました。)のハンガーがあり、気が利くなぁと関心しました。
朝食メニューも日替わりメニューで、京都らしい食材もあり、味も良く満足です。
全体的には良かったです。

Cons:

全体的な清潔感はあったが、1点だけ。便座と蓋の間に染みが付いていたのがとても残念でした。
