Hotel is very clean, friendly staff & close to a very decent 24 hours restaurant outside of the hotel & walking distance to subway stations. Perfect central location to anywhere you may need to explore kyoto. Absolutely fantastic! Only thing missing is an public onsen bath in the premises but i still would highly recommend.
