This place was awesome. It was clean, had fun free snacks, and was really close to everything. The rooms were great and fairly large. We appreciated the washer / dryer in the room and the microwave. The staff was friendly and we had no problems only knowing English.

The hotel was clean, quiet and well-appointed. The staff were very helpful. We were running late to pick up our rental car and they called the shop to tell them we would be an hour later. We were within walking distance of all of the sites. The walk back back from the Samurai district was beautiful at night. We only stayed one night, but we would definitely stay there again.

The hotel is nicely located along Kyoto subway line and walkable to Nishiki Market and Nijo Castle. The ensuite laundry machine is a bonus for us to wash our clothes after our 7-day trip in Tokyo. The drying function isn't strong, so it'd be good to do small load of laundry and add on drying time. The breakfast buffet is quite worth the price. Many japanese and western options for adults and kids. Also many nice restaurants and stores in the neighborhood.
