the place is really a good location. Near the ninenzaka, kiyomizu temple, gion district and bus stop. If you like night/morning walking around those area, i can say this place is really a good location. and near the supermarket if you want to buy something and eat it in your room.

It’s exactly what you expect - a minimalist, simple room. Location is great, being close to lots of touristy stuff while feeling like you’re in amoungst the locals. Supermarket next door was great, and some yummy spots to eat at nearby. About 10 minutes walk to Gion area, 15 to Kiyomizu-dera

Reasonable Hotel in a great Area
We weren’t planning on making a trip to the Gion district, but we’re pleasantly surprised when we found out that our hotel was a 3 minute walk away.

A great experience!
The place was very clean and in great condition. I loved the interior design. It was modern with clean lines and very pleasing to the eyes. The owner/ receptionist Junya was friendly and helpful. The room was smaller than I had expected, but for the price this was a good bargain in the Kyoto district. I would stay there again the next time I visit. : ) Thank you Junya san.
