Pros:

Personnel gentil et serviable.
Bien situé au calme.
Produits d'hygiène à disposition.

Cons:

Très étonnée de la taille du lit qui fait 120cm de largeur pour 2 personnes, avec un mari mesurant 1m85, c'est un peu petit.
C'était marqué dans les informations mais je n'y ai pas fait attention puisque je partais du principe qu'une chambre pour 2 personnes avait un lit de 1m40 minimum.

L’hotel si trova in un bel quartiere con tanti negozietti, ristoranti ed è molto piacevole da camminare perché non molto
Pros:

Lo staff è stato gentile e disponibile. Ho potuto lasciare i bagagli dopo il check out per qualche ora per godere ancora di una mezza giornata a Kyoto. La posizione è centrale e comoda in quanto vicina ai trasporti e linea metro diretta per la stazione. Si trova in un bel quartiere con tanti negozietti e anche gallerie per lo shopping. Pratica anche la macchina automatica per il cambio valuta. La stanza era piccola ma pulita.

Cons:

La camera era un po’ piccolina, mancava lo spazio per la valigia grande.

La ubicación excelente

Cons:

La cama es muy pequeña, no creo que sea ni de 135cm. El desayuno es un plato combinado y cada día es el mismo

Sono stata molto bene in questa struttura, malgrado la csmera era affacciata su una strada molto trafficata e grande, er
Pros:

Questo hotel è in un ottima posizione per esplorare molti bei quartieri di Kyoto come Gion, inoltre si trova vicino ad una stazione della metro.
Lo staff è molto gentile e disponibile, le stanze sono un po’ datate ma dotate di ogni confort. Particolarmente pratico è l’automatico per cambiare la valuta all’interno dell’hotel.

Cons:

La colazione. C’è la scelta tra un piatto unico molto spartano e un altro, la prima scelta è inclusa nel prezzo mentre per la seconda c’è un costo aggiuntivo. Il caffè purtroppo non può essere menzionato, non c’è una macchina del caffè, ma viene servito da un termos😂
