A wonderful time.
Pros:

Staff was amazing. Everyone was incredibly helpful, even through language differences. Everyone was friendly, and when I had an issue with my luggage transport to another hotel the receptionist sat with me and helped me figure out the issue until it was solved, including helping me call a new hotel and booking a new reservation. Thank you!! Location was perfect - close proximity to many of the temples and shrines I wanted to visit, including Kiyomizu-Dera, Yasaka, and Kodai-Ji. It was also near the bus stop, and the area around the hotel was very peaceful and lovely to walk around, especially at night. Walking to the river (which took about 5 minutes) was a highlight of my nights. Overall I had an amazing stay and would highly recommend.

Happy place if you don’t expect anything more than a comfortable clean room.
Pros:

Clean aesthetics of the place. The moment you step into the property, you feel you are in a safe and warm space, which was nice for cold Kyoto evenings.
Filtered water dispenser is available for use just outside the room.

Very basic rooms but quality finishes and clean.

Cons:

The heating was quiet tricky to use. Both my parens’ and our room got cold towards the morning and woke us up.
