Excellent and highly recommend

Excellent location within 5 mins from Kyoto station (closest entrance and exit is the one with the McDonalds). So many food options nearby. Easy to head back to hotel for brief reset before heading out again. Hotel provides umbrellas and a coffee/espeesso machine along with ofcourse tea in the lobby. Each room equipped with laundry and drying combo machine (including detergent too). but humidity makes it hard to dry. Can ask for drying rack from the front desk but will still take 2 days or so to dry.

Accessibility to the station, bus lines, convenient stores and restaurants. Room was clean, has everything one needs, spacious, washer/dryer combo, kitchen, and zen large window floor/ceiling wall/wall was so fun watching the rain coming down the rain catchers. Staff, each and everyone were kind, respectful and caring. I would stay here again and consider it, my little secret spot.
Breakfast, just enough.

It was initially hard to find, but that made it quiet. The staff was nice but the housekeeping really stood out. They were really on the ball and friendly. The rooms were dark, which is okay as we needed sleep, but a bit outdated. It was nice having a washing machine.
