Definitely need to be more clear that you need to check in at a different building to where you will be staying. Luckily people passing by who spoke great English helped me.

The room I stayed in was exactly what I was expecting. Traditional Japanese vibes, comfy futon, I even had a sliding door to get a view of the outside. Some reviews complained about a strong smell, and while I could smell the tatami mats, it wasn't a bad smell by any means. The house was very quiet too, which was nice to sleep in. My only real complaint is about a couple of locals who stayed in the house on my last two nights. They would talk very loudly and would stomp around and slam doors/other things late at night. That's an issue with those people though, and not with the room or the house.

For those looking to stay, just keep in mind that you're basically staying in a dorm. You might get some unpleasant people staying in the same building, but other than that, it's a nice, cheap option to stay in Kyoto.

This one was a little hard to find - the lobby - check in is in a little different area of where we are staying.. the directions gave the location to the building but the lobby was in a different location. Had to ask a guy for help.. the lobby was about 2-3 short blocks from the building. But the locals were very nice. they knew the place and helped us out. Rooms were nice - service was nice.. just a little confusing to find the lobby at first.

We had a pleasant stay at Ikoi-no-ie, which is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from the metro station. We booked a room with a private bathroom, which was very convenient. The area is quiet, with a restaurant just around the corner and a shared dining room available for use.

One thing to note is that check-in and the front desk are in a separate building about a 3-minute walk away, so if you're arriving with large suitcases, be prepared to go back and forth. Additionally, the rooms are on the second floor with steep stairs, which might be challenging if you have heavy luggage.

Other than that, the Japanese-style room was very nice and clean. The hotel staff was helpful and welcoming, and both check-in and check-out were smooth and easy. Overall, a great stay with a few logistical points to keep in mind!

Great budget friendly spot!

Very cute place to stay! Staff were friendly and helpful, coin laundry available for 200 yen per load, and close to train stations. About a 30 minute walk from some of the major tourist spots and cheap bike rentals on the property! The room we stayed in was basic, with only a small table and fold out floor cushions for the beds, which was just fine for us. The shared bathroom was one floor down and was very clean. There was a private Ryokan available to rent out as well which was super cool!

Property provided basic needs with futon in bedroom and clean bedding. I paid extra for the private bathroom inside bedroom option. Small tv, small table and cup set for tea inside room. Shared kitchen and refrigerator for all guests. Being this was a ryokan style hotel i thought that yukata's would be complimentary to use during stay but they charge for it and almost all amenities even a towel!. The staff was friendly and helpful. Onsite washer and dryer is a plus. Only downside is the amenities rentals and office for check-in is at another location around the block.

Lovely neighbourhood, disappointing room

We went to this hotel with the expectation that we would be staying in a traditional Japanese room. When we arrived we went to the main office/building, which was designed as a traditional Japanese interior. The staff were all dressed in kimonos, and they were friendly and helpful.

Unfortunately we were checked in to an annex building, which was a small apartment complex. We were in a simple apartment-style room, with a kitchenette and bathroom. The only traditional part of the room was our sleeping arrangements - futons on the floor. We were hoping for more character and decor as per the photos we saw online.

Charming and convenient

Great hostel, nice, clean and cozy, would love to stay there again. PROS: 3 min walk to a subway station, 15 min walk to the main Kyoto train station; nice kitchen with a stove, microwave and various utensils for common use; laundry machine on the roof top; a 24 hour supermarket is about 5 min walk away, also a 7-eleven is 3 min walk away (which in Japan is much better than in North America). We were lucky to get the room on the top 4th floor, which has its own balcony with a view and no other neighbors. CONS: the place was initially a bit hard to find, the taxi driver had to spend extra 2-3 min asking some locals for direction. Streets in this area are narrow, a taxi is too big to turn into the street. My advise, print or show a detailed map. Also, beware that the front desk is in another building a street away and closes at 10 PM. No elevators so prepare for walking up/down the stairs. Overall: we really liked the place.

Chic and quiet place

We are a traveller of 3 friends who stayed for a total of 3 nights. The guest house is a short walk away from Gojo station which is 1 stop away from Kyoto Main station. A mini briefing with a guide book was distributed to us when we check in which is very handy.

The only thing which was tricky was locking our room. We have to tried a few times to actually figure out how to lock the room.There is also a kitchen of the first level, where we can use the utensils, cook and use the fridge. To identify which is our product we have to use a marker, which we have issue writing since its a white board marker, a simple swipe and our words keep getting erased, so best to use a pen.

Our room was on the first floor of the guest house with a private bathroom. To enter our room, we get to pass by a very cute mini garden!! Overall, we are satisfied with our room, the futon was clean and the air-con was fully functional. There are sufficient space for three of us in the room with our futon and luggage laying around.

The neighbourhood is a quiet residential area, away for the bustlings city, we fell in love with the place and Kyoto.

Hostel Masquerading as a Hotel

It is impossible to sleep when you can hear other guests in the room above you, and when the mere closing of doors is loud enough to wake you. The futons were clean and fine, but there are no chairs in the bedrooms which means you can't come back to relax. There is also no mirror or vanity in the bedrooms, so if you have to do your makeup or shave, be prepared to do it in front of everyone else outside the toilet area or in the bathing area with very little light. The walls had water stains and the single light overhead was very dim. The single clothes washer was also broken.

The wifi slows down and becomes unuseable when too many people are using it at night. The staff was kind, but they were never seen other than when we checked in and out. This meant that when other guests used the shared bath and left it in disarray (towels everywhere, wet floors, garbage overflowing the small dustbins), there was no one there to check in on it and clean it up. Checkout was very quick and easy, but the staff never asked us if we enjoyed our stay. To me, this was a clear sign that they know their hotel is not enjoyable.

I would never recommend this hotel unless for some reason you want to pay hotel prices for a bad hostel-style stay.

P.S. You also don't get the sense of community and shared experience that comes with a real hostel environment. :(

We ended up being locked out of the other building, so we could not use the toilet.
I know the staff felt bad that we had a bad experience.
This place is more of a hostel than a hotel.

Traditional style, nothing fancy but good stay

We booked a room with a private bathroom and it was perfect for us. It was a traditional room with a tatami floor, but the futons were surprisingly comfortable. Even though it was a very plain room, and by no means new, we had everything we needed. The staff were very helpful and friendly. It was about a 10min walk from Kyoto station.

Now the downsides. The hostel building itself is separate from the reception building, so you have to walk a little ways to reach reception. The on-site laundry machines work but they are located on the roof, and even though there is cover you are still basically outside. There was no working light up there so we had to do our laundry in the dark.

This is a lovely guesthouse. The location is good, close to the subway station. You can even walk to the Kyoto station. It is clean and convenient. The kitchen has everything you need, including free tea, which is very good. However, the internet was so bad, especially in room no. 11, behind the house. And what I am not satisfied the most is that it was very noisy at night. I didnt know where the noise came from, maybe from the ventilator or air-con upstairs. But it was like someone hitting and opening the door all night. I couldnt sleep all night. Very bad really.

Good choice

Good location between Kyoto Station and the downtown shopping area. Nearby to the subway (which I didn't use). It felt very safe and was a very nice residential place to walk around. I had a private room with bath, so I can't comment on the other shared rooms. It was quite spacious with a little balcony and plenty of bedding. There was no other furniture so if you are expecting a chair or a dresser for clothes, you won't find it here. The wifi was a little spotty, worked only near the window, but that isn't a huge problem. Some of the instructions weren't clear - there is a sign on the wall not to touch any of the settings, but it turned out you had to turn on the hot water (and touch the settings). They let me put my bags in the room even though I arrived early and it wasn't yet cleaned, and stored my bags the morning I left since my flight was late. Everyone was very nice and I would recommend this place.

\"Home away from home\"

Though it was hidden in some alley it was worth the search. I highly recommend those who are looking for somewhere quaint, homely and inexpensive, ikoi no ie can be added to your choice list.
After having been there, it is actually quite simple to locate. If you are arriving from Kyoto Station, take the subway to Gojo Station. Get out from Exit 8. From Exit 8, turn right and turn right quite immediately again on the first small lane. Head straight all the way. Its about 800m walk. As their signage is not so prominent, do look out for it.

A little jewel in central Kyoto

We spent 6 nights here at the start of a 3-week trip around Japan. The young staff were super-friendly and all spoke excellent English. There were cute notes absolutely everywhere explaining how everything worked, and the communal kitchen was literally papered with information on how to reach all the popular tourist sites in Kyoto and nearby. The location is excellent, in the charming narrow back streets north of Kyoto station. The room was a bit small, just big enough to lay our our four futons: people booking this for a family need to be aware of this! We would definitely return here or consider one of the other two nearby establishments with the same management. The warm comments in the guest book testify to the success of Iko-no-ie!

Hotel has a guesthouse feel, with a shared kitchen area. The room was quite large and the attached bathroom was very clean and nice. Only minor complaint is that I thought we had a window and we did but it was very small with no view of any kind (I think it faced an alley or courtyard or something).

Ikoi-no-ie, The old part of Kyoto you must see.

Ikoi-no-ie is a traditional Japanese style hotel. You get to sleep on the floor on a Futon and things like that. It is spreed over a few buildings in the old part of Kyoto so your not quite sure what room you will get to stay in. I stayed in a newer building and so the authentic paper walls and stuff weren’t there. Having said that I enjoyed the stay anyway. The staff were very helpful providing maps and advise, you can hire a bicycle for sight-seeing for just 600yen a day.

Our room No 18 had a strong and very uncomfortable smell. It was beside the shower and all doors bump! People showering at midnight was disturbing our rest.
The room was totally undecorated. No pictures at all, just blank walls.

Reasonable stay with reception in different place

Japanese style room was okay! It is located on a quiet residential area about 15 min walk from Kyoto central station. The reception was at a different place (next street) - you need to goto this place for checkin formalities. This was mentioned in the instructions email, nevertheless it was not convenient. Bathroom taps were old and not that handy. To get the desired temperature of hot+cold water, some amount of maneuvering is needed!

The traditional room feeling for a reasonable price. Keep in mind that includes preparing the futon

I didn’t expect that quality, because it was very budget friendly too, but it was really like a Ryokan. There is also a temple that called Higashihongan-ji, and is famous, moreover it’s only 10 min away from the Kyoto station as you can see the tower.

2015/2016/2018/2019 來京都玩都住這，雖然是舊民宿，但環境保持還算蠻乾淨的，服務人員很熱心，離京都車站近，環境安靜，在住宅區中，感覺很安全，拉行李進出時，會儘量保持安靜，兒子很喜歡房間裡的浴缸.

โรงแรมอยู่ใกล้สถานีรถไฟการเช๋คอินค่อนข้างยากต้องไปอีกโรงแรมหนึ่ง ตอนจองระบุว่าห้องน้ำส่วนตัว แต่คืออาบน้ำได้อย่างเดียวต้องใช้ห้องส้วมรวม ซึ่งมีน้อยผิดหวังเล็กน้อย

very nice hostel

This was my second time staying in this hostel and I would definitely return. The staff is very kind, attentive and responsive. The room size is fine for two people, although staying just by myself it was even better. Bathroom, shower and kitchen areas are very clean. It also has good amenities in the room as well as in the kitchen. Also, the hostel is very close to the train station so the location is very convenient. I would highly recommend staying in this place.

一間不差的旅館

房間雖小但家人都說住得很舒服，雖然接待處要走一段路，但職員服務態度非常好，好幫忙，好笑容。地點對年青人來說是好的，到JR站及烏丸都可步行即到，但若有長輩同行就要搭的士比較好！

2번째로 다녀왔습니다.

주위는 교토 시내의 주택가입니다. 교토역까지 걸어서 10분 거리이며, 어딜 가든 쉽게 갈 수 잇씁니다. 다만 조식은 제 입맛에 맞지 않았네요. 1층에서 컴퓨터도 쓰고 맥주도 먹고 이야기도 나눌 수 있으니 다음에는 혼자 한 번 와봐야겠습니다.

京都車站附近

ㄧ開始導航帶我們到的「憩之家」竟然不是飯店本身櫃檯，飯店跟櫃檯本身是分開的，我們找了好久才找到路，拖著行李走，大約要走10分鐘，然後飯店Wifi名稱找不到，所以根本連不到，還有，如果要請人打掃，要放打掃牌，但是打掃牌怎麼找都找不到，退房時，還要我們再走到櫃檯，放鑰匙，認真覺得可以請打掃的人打掃完順路帶回去，應該也較順，以上改進的話應該會更舒適～
