Kyoto
Pros:

L'hotel, non è esattamente nelle vicinanze della metropolitana anche se nemmeno troppo distante.
La passeggiata uscendo dalla stazione viene allietata dalla vista dello splendido castello che accompagna per un buon tratto il percorso verso l'hotel. In ogni caso appena fuori dalla struttura ci sono le fermate degli autobus. In tutte le città giapponesi i servizi pubblici sono ai massimi livelli. Difficilmente potrete trovarvi ( direi quasi impossibile) in difficoltà o trovarvi in una zona sguarnita da collegamenti.
La camera, nello standard,, sempre abbastanza contenuta ma tutto sommato comoda, letti compresi.Aria condizionata e bollitore sempre presenti mentre il bagno in stile nave traghetto è comunque fruibile anche se, con qualche centimetro in più, sarebbe andata meglio.
Personale alla reception ineccepibile, sempre puntuali e presenti.

Cons:

A parte il solito discorso dimensioni, in realtà non c'è nulla che non mi sia piaciuto.

Exelente relación calidad/precio y una habitación muy, muy tranquila.
Pros:

La relación calidad/precio es magnífica. Las habitaciones son muy pequeñas, y es cierto que la mía tuvo olor a tabaco durante los primeros días, algo muy habitual en muchos hoteles de Japón, pero cumplen su función perfectamente. Lo que destaco por encima de todo es lo tranquila que era la habitación. Estuve casi dos semans y prácticamente no escuché a nadie por los pasillos. La ubicación no está mal. No está en el centro, pero sí en una zona accesible y varios autobuses urbanos paran justo en la puerta del hotel. El servicio de limpieza funciona cuando lo solicitas. Es decir, no limpian todos los días salvo que lo pidas explícitamente, y cuando lo piedes no cobran importe adicional. Estoy muy contento con este hotel porque me permitió visitar todo Kioto sin problemas.

Cons:

El olor a tabaco en la habitación durante los primeros días.

I enjoyed my stay, shops within walking distance, clean rooms, friendly staff, if someone doesn't want the busy center but the quiet streets of Kyoto, this is the right choice

Cons:

Pros:

Het bed. Eindelijk een bed waar we zonder rugklachten.uit kwamen.

Cons:

Het ontbijt. Had graag iets van yoghurt of fruit gehad met koffie ipv iedere dag Onigiri. Of in ieder geval iets van een keuze.

スタッフの対応
Pros:

タオルは柔らかかった。

Cons:

常にフロントにスタッフがいない。連絡はスマホからのみ。室内に電話なし、スマホからのみ。

年配の男性スタッフ→ネクタイはきっちり絞めてないし、髪もボサボサだしだらしない印象。
また忘れ物をした事を電話連絡したが「私は取りにいけない、清掃スタッフに頼んでおくんで」…私は友達ではない。電話して10分くらいで取りに行ったが確認しに行くでなし、清掃スタッフに確認するでもなくカードキーをぽんと渡され自分で行け的対応。部屋に行くと既に部屋は清掃されドアは解放された状態で忘れ物がポツンとあった。清掃スタッフに連絡してない?ドア開放…お財布とかスマホだったらどーすんの?
外国人の女性スタッフ→私が勘違いをしたのもあるが
朝食券は?と尋ねると「朝食はついてません」「それにここレストランないしねぇ…」…私は友達ではない。

交通の便も悪いし、チェックアウトも10時と早い。

いつも宿泊しているホテルは、皆さんきちっとしてるし言葉使いも丁寧で、フロントにはいつも数人のスタッフがいてしっかり対応してくださるから安心。
出掛ける時は「行ってらっしゃいませ」帰って来たら「お帰りなさいませ」と言葉があるからホッとする。

誰とも顔を合わせたくない、喋るのが煩わしい、出入りが自由なのが良いと言う人には最高のホテルかもしれないが私的には今まで宿泊した中では最低ランク。

Convenient and excellent value for money
Pros:

Nice hotel close to Nijō Castle. An easy walk from Marutamachi Station or Nijojo-mae Station and close to major bus stops. The room had everything you could need, including a kettle and microwave plus bathroom amenities. My only criticism really was the cleanliness - it looked as though it hadn't been hoovered for a while. The bedding was all very clean though.

Cons:

The cleanliness of the carpet could have been better.
