小而精美的民宿

晚上才到當地，找路花了一段時間，還有點迷路XD。老闆雖然英文不太好，還是很詳細介紹環境，這次住三人房，有獨立衛浴，整體狀況還不錯，但是樓梯比較窄、陡，走路要小心一些。

The place was good, but no heat in the room, too clod and very little space. Location wise, very accessible, near bus stops and McDonald’s.

It's a lovely place located near bus stops and 10mins walk from 西院 (Saiin) Station. The place is very clean, although it might get a little cold in winter, they have AC in the rooms and the common area that can warm you up. Super friendly staff helped with my luggage, and when I went out, always made sure I knew which bus to take so I wouldn't get lost! Definitely would recommend staying here, and I would stay again. For people who are a bit loud, I wouldn't recommend this place as the walls are quite thin and you might disturb other guests. Have to follow some house rules, such as shower times. But overall, it's a nice guesthouse.

ドミトリーよりはいいけど…

個室に泊まりました。 狭くて布団以外のスペースはほとんどありません。 ドミトリーよりはプライベートは保てますが、くつろげるほどの雰囲気はありません。 バス・トイレは共用ですが、部屋のすぐ近くにありました。 イオンモールが近くにあるので買物は便利です。 荷物預かりがないこと、シャワー室を使える時間に制限があること、室内での飲食が不可なことなどが不便でした。

A Quiet Retreat

It was really cute, honestly. It felt very like we'd stepped into a movie set of Japan. It was quiet and comfortable with fairly good WiFi. The stairs were scary and there was only one shower with a rule not to use it after 11, which I've not seen at a hostel before, but otherwise I have few complaints.

Nice and Clean

Stayed 2 nights in room with attached bathroom. The guest house actually did not provide towel. Location is okay with bus stop nearby. Room is clean and host is very helpful. You cannot eat in your room but in a community area.

Leuk verblijf in Kyoto

Prettig verblijf. Ontzettend aardige gastheer en gastvrouw, ondanks dat ze zelf niet goed engels spreken, deden ze ontzettend hun best om ons te helpen met de weg, bezienswaardigheden en al dan niet meer. Fijne ligging ook kwa bussen en treinstations.

the place is actually quite strategic, with bus stop just few meters away and also the subway. bed is super comfy. but the only thing is i got lost on the first day. then it turns out that the map to the guest house was available on the nearest Seven Eleven. :)

服務質數有待改善

早上九時，前台仍是無人當值。接待員英文水準差劣，若不是以简單日語溝通，根本就是鷄同鴨講；此外，他只會按本旨辦事，強調旅館持牌人訂下之規條，例如: 沒有行李寄存服務。今時今日，這樣的服務態度當然不能接受。總结為「服務質數有待改善」。

No lo recomendaria.

El hostal es muy pequeño. Realmente no hay sitio ni para moverse con la mochila. Esta lleno de normas que te impiden hacer tu vida. ¡Hay horario hasta para ir al WC! Por contrapartida esta todo muy nuevo. Se nota que es muy reciente. La verdad es que no lo recomendaria. Sirve para dormir alli y poco mas.
