Pros:

L'emplacement très proche du canal est très pratique et agréable. De nombreux moyens de transport sont disponibles à proximité mais il est aussi possible de se rendre à pied à plusieurs sites d´intérêt reconnu. Bons équipements. Bonne insonorisation.

위치와 방 시설이 좋아요
Pros:

위치가 기온에서 도보로 가능하고 지하철 가깝고 시내 접근성이 좋았고 시라가와 옆이라 정취가 있어 만족한 숙소 였습니다.

Cons:

장기숙박이어도 청소와 시트교체는 스스로 해야함. 로비가 없음.

Great location, decent stay
Pros:

The hotel’s location is excellent, close to public transport and within walking distance to Gion area and many restaurants. The area is quiet, and the room had plenty of space for a small family. The bed was very comfortable, and having a washing machine with a dryer was convenient for our stay.

Cons:

While the room was spacious, the sofa and floor could use some extra cleaning.

Room was good big bed quiet place. Just one think is that they didn’t pick your call nor reply your email that’s the one
Pros:

It’s clean and quiet place

Cons:

If you go by your own vehicle think about the parking space it’s little difficult to get parking nearby.

Tolles Hotel!
Pros:

Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit diesem Hotel! Es war sauber, und dass eine eigene Waschmaschine im Zimmer stand, war für uns einfach das Beste. Ich würde das Hotel garantiert weiterempfehlen

Pros:

The room was awesome, it was big with great facilities, a washing machine, a place to dry your clothes, a sink and kitchen wear if you want to cook by yourself. We ordered a big room with two beds.
Very quit area.

Cons:

The area is a bit far from the center of the city, 20 minutes walk or a 15 minutes bus. Nothing else to do around the hotel itself.
There is no room cleaning, you have to take towels yourself when you need. It wasn't that bad for us.

Un spacieux et moderne point de chute pour visiter Kyoto !
Pros:

L’emplacement tout près de centre d’intérêt et à côté d’un ruisseau paisible.
La taille de la chambre est un gros plus et il y a une machine à laver gratuite !
Des équipements tels que des serviettes et autre sont mises à disposition quotidiennement.
