This property is wonderful in every way possible. The rooms are clean, modern and spacious. The location is convenient to transit, restaurants and convenience stores and the staff helpful and accommodating. This was best place we stayed in on our trip to Japan.

I really enjoyed how this property gives you a local vibe. I didn’t see many other foreigners in the area, it felt very local. The area felt safe and we had no problems checking in and checking out. The room has everything you need if you plan to stay for a long duration. They have a washer and you can dry your clothes either in the washroom or outside in the balcony. A kitchen and also very spacious bedroom, living room. I especially enjoyed their shower and tub which was very relaxing after a long walking day. One down side, its a little of a further walk from the nearest station.

Unfortunately we were only able to stay here for one night but it was such a wonderful place would have been nice to spend more time there. This is literally a one bedroom apartment and it was beautiful! I couldn’t find any faults. It was all decorated in Japanese style. Everything was laid out beautifully and well explained. I would definitely stay here again and hopefully for longer.

A very pleasant stay in Kyoto

It was good to have a kitchenette and washing/drying facilities in the room. Pretty much had everything we needed. If you were staying for a longer time and planning to eat in more then maybe more dinnerware, etc would be required. Bathroom was a bit cramped

This is our second time staying at this property, and we love it. My family keeps asking to return to this property. It is literally a home away from home. We buy groceries and cook food at home, as well as walk around to the local restaurants. The bus stop and subway stations are a short walk away, and it’s easy to get to Kyoto Station or Karasuma area. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Kyoto. They also offer a spa treatment that you can easily schedule online. It made our trip even extra relaxing. Can’t wait to return again!

This place was a great find. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They received our luggage and had it waiting in our room for us when we arrived. This was more like an apartment, so we had 2 bedrooms, with 2 large beds in each room, that could be shut off from the main area. There was a living room, full kitchen, and dining area. It was nice to be able to do laundry also. This allowed us to not pack a lot of clothes for our trip. This is in more of a residence area, but subway, bus, and grocery store are all within walking distance. Staff was helpful with calling us a taxi when we needed it until we figured out how to use the Go Taxi app ourselves. I wouldn't hesitate to book here again.

Good but not great

The accommodation is in a quiet residential area close to the subway and other sites. The room was very clean and in good order. There are lots of notices in the room about being considerate by not talking loudly and quiet times from 9pm to 8am. However, we seemed to be the only ones observing this well intentioned instruction as other guest simply don’t. On our stay we were awoken or disturbed by the people above who clearly had kids running around upstairs and the room connected to ours a baby screaming! This was a pity because there was no road noise and everyone in Japan seems to be considerate. What doesn’t help is that the reception is on minimal hours, i.e only operate when you out site seeing! So when you want to ask them to speak with the noisy customers they are no where to be seen! We were expecting better than the experience we received given the price. Having to constantly ask for coffee sachets was another tedious task. We only wanted enough for 2 cups a day, but you had ask for refills! So nice place but not as good as we had expected:-(
