Amazing, to be honest
It was a small inn- with a common area for night snacks and stuff...
and you get yourself a little comfy room
again, do not expect a large room but rather japanese standard room size

Convenient location near the station. A lovely owner. Not for fussy people but if you’re just after a cheap place with a bed and shower etc then it’s a fine place. Basic but comfortable enough

Absolute class act. One of the best hotels I have stayed at, especially for the price point. Room came with a bidet and an in-suite shower. Absolute godsend for my needs and was close to a convenience store, laundromat, and other businesses. Train station was less than a 5 minute walk. Amenities were perfect and covered every possible need. Safe to say this is the best hotel in Kyoto.

If you wanna stay away from the caravans of tourists. That's your spot! Nice, clean and with a good soul. Fresh rooms. Maybe a bit loud from the passing train signal near by. But for me was it a good choice. No clear glas Windows.
Trainstations from JR and the Tram. You will be fast in the Bamboo Groove and Kyōto Station.

Eine gute Unterkunft. Niemand hat einen gestört. Family Mart 2 min. Fußweg. Bahn keine 10 min. Entfernt. Man durfte kostenlos Waschen. Es gab eine Gemeinschaftsküche, stets sauber. Würden wir wieder Buchen! Vielen Dank für den tollen Aufenthalt.
Easy to reach any transportation (bus, Randen, and JR), which let me go any famous place to hang out and go sightseeing.
The place was quiet, clean and tidy.
