Lovely hotel. Check in is all automated. Room was very comfortable although we had issues with the air conditioning not working and they moved us to one of the other locations nearby which was fine. Didn’t get a chance to use the onsen. Wish we had!

Great, clean property. We liked that it was a 5-10 minute walk from tourist areas. It is located on a Main Street so our room could hear some traffic, but with so much walking, it certainly didn’t affect our sleep!

Everthing you need is either in the room or a few steps away. They have easy check in and out procedures in place and a nice 11 AM check out time. They also have a baggage holding room if you arrive early. The train station is only half a block away as well. If we come back this is where we'll be.

The property was great. I loved that everything was automated. I could check in myself and didn't need a hotel key card (a pin was issued to me which I input into the doorkey of the room). The room was clean and spacious. The shower area was great with very hot water. Hotel was located in a superb location for all activities in Kyoto. I would stay here again.

They don’t have anyone at the front desk. You have to do a virtual check in. Very annoying after traveling for hours. You have to log in and scan QR codes. The room was nice. Private baths were extra.

Minn was a great apartment hotel for our family of 3 with a 6 year old. Our family suite was spacious, very clean, and modern with a kitchen and appliances. We enjoyed reserving the private onsen with our family. No food or snacks available, but it was near a Lawson and FamilyMart. The location was also in a great walkable area with a few excellent restaurants within a few blocks, and away from the chaotic downtown. My only suggestion would be to have a full-time front desk receptionist; many times there was no one at the front desk and they preferred that you call/text them from the iPad. 100% would stay here again.

Excellent hotel!!

I took my family of 5 for a family vacation. This was a perfect location because it was close enough to all of the attraction the city has to offer, but it was just far enough where we were able to get a nice rest after a long day of touring the beautiful country. I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel, as it was a mini apartment where anything and everything was within a short walk, including grocery stores, coffee shops, subway station, and much more. It was nice and clean and my entire family truly enjoyed the place. My entire family fit comfortably and having the mini kitchennete was fantastic! We had a wonderful experience.
