This property is somewhat self service because there is no regular front desk person to help 24/7. The room was clean and spacious with great amenities including a full kitchen and in room laundry facilities. The staff was very friendly and helpful when called upon.

Although it was setup nicely, getting sleep at night in the room whilst there were multiple small lights on the ceiling didn’t make this a relaxing time. 2 nights were fine for us but glad it wasn’t longer.

The room itself is nice but we had a few issues. Our first morning we woke up to very loud construction noise outside our bedroom window that was unceasing. After a few hours I requested we be moved as my baby was unable to sleep. They immediately moved us to a room on the other side of the building, which we appreciated. However the washing machine in this new room had a foul smell like sewage. After a load of washing this smell had transferred to our clothes and made the bathroom smell terrible. Also to note, there is often nobody at reception and check in and check out is done electronically with video verification. This made communicating issues a bit more difficult without an actual person there.

Great location and spacious!

The facility has a great quiet location, in walking distance to convenience stores, trains. about 3/4 mile walk to the main shops in Gion, the river walk and many shrines. The facility has a private spa room which was a great feature. We had a 1 bedroom with 2 sofa beds which were comfortable, the room was spacious and had a side patio. We speak English, limited Japanese and was able to communicate with the friendly staff.
