I was happy to have a private room for privacy. It is really a small room but quite comfortable. Sometimes I had to wait to use common shower.

My second stay here. Great location, good value for money and the hotel is clean. The room is super small (basically just the bed and have many strange rules and fees (new towels you can order only until 10AM,showers are closed after noon, penalty for every 30 mins of late check-out…). But overall good and I would stay again.

As a solo traveler, the room itself was adequate in size for sleeping on a raised floor with mattress and limited luggage/backpack storage space. Have a shared shower, toilet, laundry area to use and a common area on main floor to eat and microwave food. There is a free storage area for luggage if you arrive early or for when checking out to retrieve it later in the day too. Staff was very pleasant to deal with and clean facilities. Location was close to Nishiki Market, Gion District and shopping.

The hotel is close to the Nishiki market and with it many food options. The hotel staff were friendly and there was a wall of tourist information (where to go, how to get there and some context for the destination). The keycard could be put in a lanyard provided for safe keeping and loungewear/towels were provided daily. The showers were clean and come with body wash and shampoo only.
