It is an OK hotel. Nothing more, nothing less
Basically a self service hotel. It is fine. Everything is done through the big TV in the room. The room was very small but is not a capsule. The bathroom is very similar to a standard cruise ship bathroom. No complaints about this hotel.

4/10 Fair

Not Handicap Friendly
The room itself was comfortable--comfortable bed, clean, fridge that works well, good quality soaps, sheets and towels. It's very small with no safe, but that's kinda expected for Japan. Demerit points for how they treat the handicap. They boast accessibility services and have wheelchair stickers all over, but these are mere optics. I have trouble climbing stairs due to an injury, and had a miserable time for it at this hotel. The bathrooms in the suites are 15 inches off the ground, so entering requires climbing this rather high stoop. There are no handrails to grab onto, so I would hold on to the bathtub and toilet to pull myself up. The hotel informed me that they only had ONE wheelchair accessible room, and it was taken. All the APA hotels they checked in the vicinity had the same issue. So why advertise accessibility and stair-free rooms in the booking sites? Guests have to go up and down two flight of stairs to get to the Onsen. There's an option for entry on the ground (first) floor, and i was informed to ask the staff to unlock the door as required. I was denied entry on four occasions by 4 different staff members. The rudest said "No, no, no, no, no!" In an almost yelling voice when I asked to be let out to the elevator. They're trying to enforce harsh rules like as if they're running a prison yard. I did not deserve to be treated that way. Management needs to be upfront and NOT MISLEAD GUESTS. APA is not handicap-friendly. APA is handicap abusive.

Convenience
Very conveniently located next to Kyoto station with numerous dining & shopping options. Bus & taxi hub along w/ train & subway available @ station. Room on the small side but was relatively easy to get accustomed to. Spa & laundry facilities onsite.

Nice and close to the amazing Kyoto Station and the busy neighbourhood. Staff were especially friendly and helpful greeting you every time you entered the lovely lobby. The room I had was very comfortable with all the amenities I've come to appreciate of Japanese hotels. The spa facility includes both indoor and fresh air pools plus an enormous one person stone tub. I highly recommend this hotel.

Great location but cramped room
Great thing is that it is next to JR & bus station. Easy to move around. Good breakfast. As usual friendly staff. Checkout is one hour too early at 10 am. Cramped room. No space at all..

Ideal
This is what all Japanese hotels should be like! Steps away from Kyoto station, restaurants and bars. Not just clean but elegant and classy. Lots of nice and well-thought-out details. Friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely try and stay at the APA chain as often as possible!

Good for a night
Close to station. Exit on the Tokyo Tower side of station. (Big Station) Fine for one night. Really small room. Ordinary breakfast but close to transport links. My room faced a wall so no sunshine.

Close to kyoto station. Off to the side so it’s nearby one of the entrances to the trains. Theres a 7-11 next door and the small alleyway connects to the yodobashi and kyoto tower. So they’re plenty of closeby choices to eat and shop at
