Great hotel
Room is standard for business hotels in Japan, but everything was very clean and met expectations. Staff went above and beyond to help us and made our stay even more pleasant. The location is also great and very charming.

Felt claustrophobic
The room I had had a frosted window. Couldn’t see out or open it so I felt claustrophobic. Room was dark and depressing.
When I booked this one I thought it was the other Ibis Styles near the Kyoto Train Station. This one is closer to the Shijo train station, so it takes transferring to get to the main JR lines. I went to the wrong hotel and ended up taking a taxi to the right one.
Glad I only had 3 nights here…I couldn’t have stayed longer as I did not like this room. Plus I noticed some hair that wasn’t mine on the carpet when I arrived. The carpet didn’t feel really clean. Would not stay here again.
