La propreté de l'hôtel, la situation géographique, la literie et bien sûr le bain Onsen.

La musique pop trop forte le matin au petit-déjeuner.
La clientèle de l'hôtel un peu trop occidental à notre goût.

Coming back to Kyoto I’m only choosing this hotel.
Pros:

Close to two different metro stations and all bus stops. Amazing location to explore Kyoto. The staff was so friendly and willing to help. The bathhouse was so clean and tattoo friendly.

Cons:

Wish I stayed longer.

מלון מעולה למי שרוצה לשהות באזור גיון, נהנינו מכל רגע!
Pros:

מלון פנטסטי עם צוות נהדר ומיקום מושלם, ארוחות בוקר עשירות, החדרים נוחים ומרווחים יחסית ליפן. דאגו לנו לכל דבר וקישטו לנו את החדר מהמם לכבוד ירח הדבש. חוויה בלתי-נשכחת בלב הפועם של קיוטו!

Cons:

שום דבר, הכל מושלם!

Would stay again!
Pros:

Great staff with a great space.

Cons:

Please change the music in the bar. We couldn’t sit down there because of 24/7 American country music.
