Great location across the street from Kyoto station east exit. Roos are cozy (small if you are coming from the US). Hard to put in a lot of large luggage. Onsen is fantastic. Walking distance to many restaurants outside and inside of Kyoto station. Highly recommend.

It is an OK hotel. Nothing more, nothing less
Basically a self service hotel. It is fine. Everything is done through the big TV in the room. The room was very small but is not a capsule. The bathroom is very similar to a standard cruise ship bathroom. No complaints about this hotel.
