Such a wonderful experience at this hotel. From the moment we checked in to the time we checked out, everything was just perfect. Super friendly and polite staff, extremely clean and well kept, every day they made our beds and cleaned the bathrooms. The room was beautiful, modern and clean. The bathroom was pretty cool, the shower was separate from the toilet, nice deep tub and they provide all toiletries, shampoo, conditioner and body soap (full size). The toilet had some cool technology, sensor that opens the lid, it sprayed deodorizer, and had heated seat and bidet functions. The lobby had washcloths, razors, qtips, etc. complimentary for you to take. Our room's window opened slightly which is nice to let in some fresh air. Air conditioning worked well and even though it turns off when you remove your card the room was always nice and cool after we returned from a day of exploring and we had really sunny days (20 degrees cel.) The hotel had umbrellas as well that they gave us free of charge when we it was we had rainy days. There is vending machines, public bath and coin laundry on the main floor. The JR train station, Tambaguchi is literally a 4 minute walk from the hotel (across the street from 7eleven. It was so nice and super easy to get everywhere. Nijo castle is only one train stop away. Kyoto station is just a couple stops away. It was just the perfect location to get around Kyoto and to go exploring other places like Nara and Osaka. Very satisfied!
