Downtown Kyoto
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (26 reviews)
"The location is excellent, 10/10. Very close to Nishiki Market, plenty of convenience stores and restaurants. Also close to multiple transport lines. No staff on site and we didn’t see any staff in a 4 night stay apart from a cleaner. Check in is on the 5th floor of a building opposite Kyoto station. The room was on the small side and felt more cramped with 2 tables in the space (1 dining table is enough, no need for a separate desk and writing chair). Would recommend for the location."
