The location was great, a short walk to the kawaramachi area. i appreciated the bt speaker in the room. It was a nice touch. the staff was helpful and offered a complimentary matcha tea upon arrival (it felt very cute).

the windows were covered, so there was no view. the closest coin laundry was about a 12-minute walk, inconvenient. i found the room to be quite noisy.

A Decent Hotel with Some Drawbacks

helpful staffgreat locationstrong pressureobscured windowlimited optioncoffee facilities

The staff members were genuinely kind and helpful. The location was great I was able to walk to many attractions. The shower was also excellent I especially enjoyed the strong water pressure.

The windows were completely obscured I could not see outside. The breakfast had very limited options I found this unacceptable. The room did not have tea or coffee making facilities.
