Nice clean place. Very friendly staff. Kids enjoyed the bunk beds. Our family of four fit in reasonably well, although the room did seem bigger in the pictures. Nijo castle is very close, but for everything else we took an Uber. Location is not very central, but close enough to, say, Kamo river. All in all, a very pleasant experience.

Loved the room layout and amenities ( kitchenette, utensils, washer/dryer, bunk beds for the kids). Location is 10 mins walking from Nijo castle and 5 mins from Sanjo market for casual evening stroll and dinner. Not that close to any station particularly but we used 'go' app for the tourist spots and so enjoyed more laid back location.

We loved this hotel. The front desk staff was lovely and friendly. The room was perfect for four people and the kids were very comfortable on the futon beds. The shower water pressure was excellent. It was great having laundry in the room although it took a while to actually dry everything. We were walking distance to Nijo Castle and many other areas were walkable too. We would stay there again.
