Comfortable, modern and clean with a standout bathroom!
Pros:

The hotel room was roomy and comfortable with high ceilings and natural daylight. The bathroom is exceptional and far exceeded expectations.

Cons:

The stairs and hallway leading to the room were dark at times.

Pros:

Cozy and spacious rooms, loved the bathroom which felt like a private onsen with the shower and huge bath. Very comfortable beds. We had a non-smoking room which still smelled of stale smoke, but that would be the only downside! Hard to find this much space for a good price in Kyoto.

バスタブ最高
Pros:

お風呂が広くてバスタブ最高でした。
お水も置いてありました。
二条城あたりが静かで気に入っており、行きたい場所の近くだったのでとても良かったです。
他の宿泊の方にもスタッフさんにも会わなかったです。

Cons:

テーブルに前の人の飲み物の跡があったのでちょっとお掃除不足かなと思う点だけ。

Pros:

방이 꽤 넓었어요. 침구가 아늑해서 꿀잠 잤어요.

Cons:

방이 다소 썰렁했어요. 지하철에서 제법 걸어요.
