My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean but had bugs, and the pillows had a bad smell. The temperature was uncomfortably cold, and the rooms were quite small although still a decent value for money. The service was excellent, with very friendly and helpful staff offering dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, and tours/ticket assistance. The location was convenient as it was close to the main shopping area of Kyoto, but it felt dead after 10 pm.
