Traditional Kyoto neighborhood experience.
Pros:

The location is good, it felt like the authentic Japanese neighborhood experience I was looking for. It's very convenient and easy to move around Kyoto from there. Walked to Kyoto station in 25 minutes from there, and the nearest station is maybe 10 minutes away. The room was comfortable and everything worked well, but what really stood out was the owner/hostess. She was outstanding: extremely kind, helpful, and attentive throughout my stay. Her hospitality made the experience much better. I would definitely recommend this place and would repeat.

Samimi temiz sessiz ve huzurlu
Pros:

Temiz ve samimi merkezi bir konum Kyoto akvaryumuna çok yakın
Resepsiyondaki hanımefendi çok kibar ve ilgili bize tüm olanarakları sundu
Kendisine buradan da çok teşekkür ederiz zarif hediyeleri ve güzel gezi planı önerileri için
Kendinizi evinizde hissedeceğiniz sessiz bir otel
Çamaşır makinesi olması çok güzel oluyor böyle gezilerde kirli çamaşırlarla gezmeyi sevmiyorum
♥️♥️ tekrar görüşmek dileğiyle hoşçakal Waka Hotel

Pros:

1.最近的公車站300公尺，交通很方便，房間小巧而整潔，床非常舒服，好幾天都睡超過預定時間。
2.本來看照片有點擔心空間太小無法放行李箱，得把行李箱放在床上整理，還好是我多慮了，單人房的壁櫥足夠25吋行李箱攤平（更大可能無法）。
3.老闆很熱心，會說中文，若有遇到房客都會熱情招呼，關心住房狀況及是否適應當地環境。
4.房內提供附近店家地圖，我跟著地圖體驗，餐廳跟湯屋都是道地的日式經營，非常值得推薦。整體而言住宿十分愉快。

Cons:

1.最近的公車站附近沒超市，晚上回飯店需先買好食物較不便。
2.沒有每日更新的毛巾及拋棄式牙刷，建議帶自己的毛巾和牙刷牙膏。

第一次住京都的旅社，剛好這次旅行碰上下雨，其實整個心情都蠻低落的，最後幾天住進這家有溫度的旅社，也是讓旅行有了家的感覺。老闆娘人很好，會努力幫助在異鄉遇到問題的旅人解決大大小小的事，是個很親切也很貼心、善良的人，房間雖然小小的但一個人住還不
Pros:

地理位置佳，晚上很安靜，老闆娘很有人情味

Cons:

距離便利商店有些遠，但晚上吃飽散步走過去是不錯的選擇

Très bon séjour avec un accueil chaleureux. Hôtel bien situé, avec des bus pour rejoindre facilement le centre, chambre
Pros:

L’hôte est vraiment adorable et très réactive. Elle m’a aidé à mon arrivée, pour la machine à laver et m’a même offert un parapluie à mon départ parce qu’il pleuvait énormément. L’hôtel est bien situé, la chambre est confortable et le rapport qualité-prix est très bon.

Cons:

Le Wi-Fi captait mal dans ma chambre, mais le problème a été réglé rapidement après l’avoir signalé. Il n’y a pas d’ascenseur, ce qui peut être compliqué avec une grosse valise.

Welcoming, convenient, clean and comfortable
Pros:

Easy to find. Excellent communication. Close to bus and train. The owner was extremely helpful, and carried my suitcase up the steep staircase. The washing machine/dryer downstairs was excellent. I had everything I needed. The complimentary umbrellas to borrow for the day turned out to be an excellent idea!

Cons:

Nothing.

Es war sehr gut!
Pros:

Man hat sich so wohl gefühlt! Das Zimmer war sehr schön, alles sehr sauber auch der Rest vom Haus auch.
Sogar ein Kühlschrank auf dem Zimmer, geiles Bett (nicht zu hart, nicht zu weich), Waschmaschinen im Haus, gutes funktionierendes wifi

Cons:

Lage bisschen außerhalb aber dann bekommt man den Flair direkt mit abseits vom Tourismus. Trotzdem alles gut mit Bus angebunden oder in Laufnähe

Cons:

Pros:

Waka Hotel價格實惠、房間整潔、交通便利，是非常棒的住宿地點，下次至京都玩會想再次入住！
一、交通十分方便，離JR丹波口和JR梅小路京都西站都很近，走路10分鐘左右會有便利商店；如果不搭大眾運輸，走久一點也能夠直接抵達京都車站。
二、鄰近環境安靜，有許多在地居民以及販賣午晚餐與和式點心的小店，即使不去很遠的景點，也能就近探索京都傳統之美。
三、旅館的房間很乾淨，一樓有付費的洗衣機與烘乾機可以使用，垃圾要自己拿到一樓分類。雖然雙床房讓房內空間稍窄，但仍是一次很棒的住宿體驗。
四、旅館管理人王小姐親切熱情、活潑可愛，有任何住宿相關問題時，若與其反應，都能夠很快與很好地被解決。
