I don’t think I could have had a better experience at this hotel. Greeted with a complementary drink on arrival, bags taken to our room, on check out they offered to take us to the Shin Station instead of us catching a train to the Shin. They had massage chairs and a laundry room down stairs around to the left of reception. The room was an amazing size after being cramped in 11sqm rooms for a majority of our trip. This room had plenty of space for us to spread out. I loved that the shower and bathtub were separated but in the same wet area. The location was perfect and just around the corner from all tourist attractions. 10/10 recommend staying here

The hotel is clean and tidy and conveniently situated. Unfortunately, its very expensive for what you get. No tea making facilities, iasked for a kettle and a mug but was told no mugs, i had to go and buy one. I asked for bottled water and was told only one bottle a day and only given out after 3pm. The breakfast was one small roll full of lettuce and a small paper cup of coffee, only one cup per person, no fill ups! This hotel is not cheap and there are so many more friendly and for a better price. Look elsewhere.

Best budget hotel! It was so clean, and organized. I saw staff even using a lint roller on the sofa in the lobby, which tells me they pay attention to detail and cleanliness. The rooms were very clean, the cleanest in my stay of 3 different hotels in Japan. I felt very comfortable there. I would 10/10 stay here again. The staff were very nice too. I appreciated all the amenities in the lobby and room. It was such a peaceful stay and I would stay here again

The stay itself was pleasant. I had a membership number, but was told I had no points or benefits because the reservation was not made through the hotel website. I would appreciate it if you could add something like other hotel chains do. There were not enough choices of breakfast items, and there was only jam and no butter. In Japan, people eat salad in the morning, but not in the West. Needs improvement.

Hotel was very modern. Good location. Room was decent size according to Japan standard. Breakfast was not good at all. All you get is piece of bread, very small portion scramble eggs and some salad. I was on 8th floor. There from May 8 to May 13 2024. Don’t leave your money or expensive item in room when you not there. I had an Indian older lady that clean my room just about everyday. I thought it was odd that my room was cleaned everyday. After check out and flew to Korea, found out someone at this hotel stole $500 USD cash from my backpack. I was mad, but more so at myself for leaving cash in the room. I would give this place 5 star if breakfast was good and cleaning lady didn’t stole my cash.

Excellent stay. Spacious enough room, more so than at the APA in Tokyo. Included breakfast is perfect to start the day with a bit of energy. Location is great, a little back from the busier part of Shijo street to the East, but still just around the corner from the Shijo Omiya station if you need transit, and a 30min walk along the very lively Shijo street to get to the Yasaka Shrine to the East of the river. I did everything by foot over the two days I was there, and loved it.

Very clean, not close to much

I stayed in Gion last time I visited and probably prefer that area of town to this area. Not much by way of food and none of the attractions we were there for are within walking distance.

Daily housekeeping was great and definitely not something I see at this price point very often. I was surprised by the lack of amenities--there is a small selection of things to pick up in the lobby but no hot water kettle/cups in the room. Room is also very small. I put one bag under the bed and one on the small table and had to shuffle sideways to get around the beds.

Breakfast is included but is very small and the exact same meal every day. We ate the first two days and went out the second two when we realized it was going to be the same.

There is a large lobby with plenty of seating but you are not allowed to eat or drink in there unless it is breakfast. We asked late at night if we could eat since the \"restaurant\" was closed and they said no. Don't really get that and it was disappointing to not be able to use that space when we were traveling with friends and not space in the room to relax together.

Great stay and great location!

Great stay and location was awesome. The bus and train to all of the temples was a 2 min walk from the hotel. Everything is new and clean. Self check in and self check out are great, and there’s staff there to help. We had a huge bed which was very comfortable. We only had carryon size luggage so the room was fine for us, but if you have a big luggage, you might find it tight. Room was cleaned everyday which was nice. Only downside is the breakfast which we knew in advance we wouldn’t be eating there. We did try it one morning but it wasn’t for us.

Very clean hotel. The check-in machine was not fun, but the staff were super helpful.

Breakfast restaurant on site gave a small but filling and it's involved in ecological work. Great location near railway and bus stations. There was a window but it was a frosted one, so we had no view.

One plus points is that after your check out, they let you use lockers and you can come back to sort out your luggage as many times as you want for the whole day. Very central , bus stops and metro st nearby. Super easy access. From Kyoto st, it took about 30min door to door by bus. Recomend !
