Unique stay in a quiet neighborhood outside the city hustle and bustle
Pros:

Very clean and loved the manga library. Also very Japanese breakfast that was delicious

Cons:

Beds were quite hard and it’s a bit far from the center but with taxis and transportation it was more than navigable. Also easy to walk just farther than I realized when booking

Pros:

The hotel location is closed to nijojo-mae subway station, it's convenient to travel to the rest of the city. The area is quiet but close to sanjo street. The hotel is easy to locate with bunches of comics for guests to read. You'll have everything you need for your stay. Recommended this place.

Pros:

Tiene un mirador muy agradable en la planta superior. El servicio de desayuno hace fácil compaginarlo con el turismo.

Cons:

No es el mejor alojamiento para hacer turismo, si bien Kyoto está muy bien comunicado el hotel no está virtualmente cerca de ningún punto de interés salvo el castillo Nijo (esto, más que una crítica al hotel, es un aviso a futuros usuarios.

La oferta de manga en inglés es muy pequeña.

El desayuno, si bien es completo y sabroso, es esencialmente el mismo todos los días.

Rapporto qualità/prezzo top
Pros:

Area con bevande calde e fredde disponibili durante tutta la giornata, libri manga da noleggiare gratuitamente e staff veramente pronto per qualsiasi richiesta.

Cons:

Non andiamo matti per la moquette in camera ed in effetti quella che avevamo in camera aveva qualche piccola macchiolina; ma sono cose di poco conto per noi.

Pros:

Localisation was ok and it was clean

Cons:

Dont be fouled by the mqlangas, for foreigners they have less than 10 in English, the bed was so hard like wood, and the breakfast bento is always the same with no options

good value
Pros:

staff are nice, senior staff knows how to look after you. location has easy transportation (bus) and 7/11, Lawsons near it. there is a good resturant to the left as you exit the hotel that allows you to do take outs where you are able to eat in your rooms

Cons:

bed is VERY firm. they provide only 1 pillow, and 2 small pillows on the little chair. some rooms are very narrow, like mine. if you have a room corresponding with 3, you will have a narrow room.

1 of the laundry machines do not dry your clothes properly
