Just what I need. Modern, covenient and clean. Good location and transportation options. What I wish I knew earlier is that you can pre-order non-standard (pay option) breakfast ahead of time. Contact hotel staff. There are also bicycles thay guests can use but I didn't realize it until I checked out of hotel.

Great hotel close to Sanjo station so easy to get to everything. Small room but not the smallest I’ve stayed in since I’ve been in Japan. Staff were super helpful. Breakfast was varied but not to everyone’s taste. Complimentary so no complaints!

Very pleased with the stay. The hotel is like a hidden gem in the center of the town, walking distance to bus & subway station (4 - 7 minutes walk); And if you choose to walk to some of the attractions nearb, you'd discover many surprising beautiful temples along your foot trail... Hotel itself is very clean, modern setting, staff were friendly; their English is limited, but put your Google translate in use, it'll solve anything that you need... * Only complaint was the breakfast portion was too small, only last me for a hour or so before getting hungry again lol, but I'm 5'7" and a hiker ~ so it's not a deal breaker and not bug enough to take off a star ...

eco friendly, poor ac, great location
we stayed at this hotel near nishiki market, and it was such a convenient and comfortable experience. the bathroom setup was great-separate areas for the toilet, shower, and sink, so you don't have to wait on anyone. the shower had multiple nozzles, which made it feel like a mini spa session every time. the twin beds were super comfy, and i haven't slept in a twin bed since i was a child, so that was fun. i loved that you could request foam pillows if you wanted something extra. plus, the location couldn't have been better-right near the shopping arcades and nishiki market, so i could just step out and explore. they also had lockers to store your luggage, which made everything a lot easier, and there's this cute little bell that chimes at 8:00 am nearby, a nice touch that made mornings feel special. breakfast was very basic but included, so i didn't have to think about finding food first thing. housekeeping is available and there's a self serve station for necessities like a comb, razor, toothbrush and toothpaste, they even provide loungewear-one size fits all--which was perfect for chilling in the room. the bathroom was pretty high-tech, too. our request to switch to another room on a lower floor, as the first room was on the top floor and was uncomfortably warm and had a weak ac. the hotel's eco-friendly vibe was noticeable. overall, this place had everything we needed--great location, comfort, and cool little details that made our stay enjoyable.

Pros- Location is convenient, very close to Nikishi Market.10 minutes walk from the train station.A lot of dining options close by. I like the shower which is separated from the toilet, so it was spacious. Cons- on the day we checked in , carpet was dirty, a clothing sticker tag was even left on the floor , for sure the carpet was not vacuumed, which was unacceptable especially if it will be occupied by a new guest. The carpet also has lots of stains which looks very dirty. I complained about it and the next day they vacuumed the floor. Cleanliness, for a Japan standard - they failed. I hope they will do better in cleaning. Staff was okay, they can be more courteous.
