The rooms were nice. It was nice to have a lobby with tables to eat and free beverage dispensers. The laundry was terrible. We spent a lot of money and ran the dryer for over an hour and our clothes still weren’t dry.
Lasko there black hairs around the room- in the tub, on the floor/carpet and on the bedding.

There's only 2 laundry machines so there could be some wait time. The dryer is a typical Japanese dryer, not the strongest for big loads. There's a laundromat on the same block so if you have a big load of clothing, I suggest using that instead. I do like the seating area in the lobby, Good space to hang out with your friends.

Stayed here for a night and it was a comfortable stay. About 15 mins from the main station with some bus stops nearby. They have some amenities that you can take from the lobby and a laundry. Room was a nice size. Arrived early and they were able to hold luggage until room was ready.

Check in and out was easy and quick. Can drop off luggage if arrived early before the check in time. Amenities is solid, especially the drink dispenser (close at 10 P.M). Cleaning of the room is decent, but wish they'll clean or replace the shower curtains more frequently. Laundromat was a bit disappointing... the dryer doesn't dry so wasted couple hundred yen on that.

Located a 10-15 minute walk from the station and a 7-11 right opposite which was convenient. Room was a good size, clean and comfortable, and there was a safe, hairdryer, and fridge with complimentary water. My only dislike was the bathroom felt extremely low and sunken when stepping in which made me feel strange as i felt off balance. I was on the ground floor so I'm not sure if its the same for all rooms. Staff were very helpful and had free umbrellas for a day of rain. I also liked that the small lounge area at the front had free drinks served until 10pm - the green latte was lovely!

Overall we had a positive experience. The staff were extremely friendly and helped us when we needed it, calling a taxi, answering questions etc. Our room was decently sized and the location was good. It was close enough to Kyoto Station to walk to but if you have a ton of luggage, or the weather isn’t ideal, you’ll probably be more comfortable taking a taxi here. It’s very close to the subway station that takes you down to Nara, Fushimi Inari or even Osaka. You can also take that line north to get to a lot of the temples and shrines on the East side so overall the location was pretty good. The drink/Ice Machines in the lobby was really nice especially since you can’t find drinking fountains anywhere in Japan. The cons: Our Shower head was a little moldy, everything else was clean in the room but I noticed that as soon as we arrived. Having a place to do Laundry was nice but it was next to the smoking room so that area smelled. The Machines are Wash and Dry combos. You do not need to bring detergent but If you have anything close to a “normal sized Western” load of Laundry you will likely need to add extra drying time. We had to split our load in two and use both machines and still had to add extra drying time. The Machines were REALLY expensive. ¥800 for a single load to wash and “Dry” and then an extra ¥200 to dry them more. We ended up spending ¥2000 just to do laundry which was annoying since our hotel in Tokyo had the same machine but for a third the price.
