2-night trip

10/10

Staff was over the top friendly and helpful. They allowed us to store our bags before and after check in/check out so that we could go explore Kyoto without having to haul our stuff around. They were also very helpful to help us acquire a taxi big enough for 6 and provide local restaurant recommendations. We were on the road side and so the rooms had quite a bit of traffic noise, but other than that everything was great.

2-night trip

10/10

We wanted a ryokan experience and we definitely got it. We booked for dinner and breakfast, ate like kings everyday! Staff are so warm and friendly, they also have very little staff so over the course of our 2 night stay, we saw literally the same people and it gave a very comforting feeling. They do have a communal bath, not an onsen, so it's not one with an onsen if that's what you are looking for. The room are comfortable, we did book a smaller one , enough for 2 people but did struggle to lay open 2 large suitcase in the room, resulting in one around the corridor near the sink. It is also an older establishment, everything was clean but can tell it's a bit dated. The location is not too bad, I suspect all over Kyoto this would be the case, especially if you want a Ryokan but it was a bigger distance to traverse to the nearest train station. We did rely on bus more which the nearest station then was a 5 mins walk. Overall, very happy with my stay and the hospitality we received.

Very nice Ryokan with good and clean rooms - only setback was that the meals were served in a dining room rather than in the room itself.
