The room was very spacious for the price paid. However, I had to remove one star because the breakfast given was the worst food I tasted during my trip. I couldn’t finish it the first day and we ate out all 4 other days.

Kyoto stay

A really great stay if you are looking for something central and budget friendly. Easy check in and out process and a big plus with the washing machines. Clean hotel and friendly staff. One downside is that the blinders do not block out all of the lights if your room is facing the street.

Best budget hotel! It was so clean, and organized. I saw staff even using a lint roller on the sofa in the lobby, which tells me they pay attention to detail and cleanliness. The rooms were very clean, the cleanest in my stay of 3 different hotels in Japan. I felt very comfortable there. I would 10/10 stay here again. The staff were very nice too. I appreciated all the amenities in the lobby and room. It was such a peaceful stay and I would stay here again
