Awesome apartment in Gion, nearby Yasaka Shrine and the main shopping district. All you may need is in the room such as a small kitchen, washing machine, etc.

Pros:

Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig. Die Betten waren bequem. Man hat eine eigene Waschmaschine mit Trocknerfunktion. Die Küche bietet auch alles, was man so benötigt. Das Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit. Man fühlt sich fast schon wie Zuhause

Cons:

Die Zimmer waren nicht besonders gut schallisoliert, man hat von der Straße (bei uns gab es nebendran eine Baustelle) und im Gebäude selbst von dem Flur sehr viel mitbekommen. Dafür wurden uns Ohrstöpsel angeboten :)

Pros:

Hotel muy limpio, al igual que todos los de Japón en los que estuve. La habitación era estrecha, pero eso ya lo sabíamos, igualmente está bien distribuida y tener baño privado siempre es un plus. Cumplió con lo que buscábamos y a muy buen precio.

Cons:

No tengo quejas.

Great value and location for money
Pros:

Spacious rooms for Japanese standards, if ever back in Kyoto will again book here.

Cons:

Genkan is a little bit small, would be better if it’s bigger and would be nice to have some shoe box for shoes to be set aside
