Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The location is good as it's a short walk from Kyoto station. But the bathroom smelled of drainage and it wasn't very nice.. Also, my room was at the corner and I couldn't sleep well because of the noise from outside (even the noise of winds!) and room next to mine. I could hear person moving in the room next to me. They weren't shouting or anything but I could still hear them doing something almost like the room was connected :(

The staff provided fresh towels along with coffee and tea and cups every single day. The staff was also very helpful. Overall, thr hotel was good but it was extremely humid inside our room so much so that our blankets and clothes eere damped every day. This situation made for a very uncomfortable stay. Unfortunately, the air conditioner did not help with this matter.

It’s very convenient that is next to Tokyo Station, makes it easy to get around. I did not used the Onsen, so paid for something I did not used. Clean, some of the staff is very friendly while others just ok. Didn’t do the breakfast or dinner. Many places outside to select it. They ah e bending machines there n the 7/11 is next door.

This hotel is such great value for your money. I've also stayed in this chain hotel in Tokyo. It is very clean with comfortable beds and good wifi connection. They provide more amenities they similar American chain hotels. They are also located in popular tourist areas and close to public transportation. The double rooms are very compact. As a solo traveler I have found them to be comfortable.

Made a right choice

Stay was amazing, high quality for good price. Location was 7-10 mins walk from Kyoto Station and bus station (amazing). When booking at APA make sure you know the exact address where to go for check-in as APA is a chain of hotels and find the right one can be tricky. You can leave your luggage with them after check-out with no extra charge. Overall stay at this hotel was exceptional in all means. The hotel has Money Exchange booth.

Close to Kyoto station. 7 eleven right next door. The rooms are not really soundproof, I could hear my neighbours laugh and cough, but at night was really quiet. Rooms are really small (it was not an issue for me) but the bed is super comfortable.
