Perfect for the price.
It's cheap for a reason, but it gets the job done. No problems with anything, but no frills. More space in the room than expected.

三畳間のホステルです
値段あたいです。快適さを求めるならお金を出しましょう。 駅に近いのが宿泊の決め手でした。 狭いユニットバス２つとトイレと洗面所があります。 遮音性はありません。 番号入力のオートロックオートロックなので外部からの 防犯は安全だと思います。

Ci penserei bene prima di sceglierlo
Futon non pulito, precedenti ospiti avevano usato apparecchi tagliabarba. Assenza di personale poliglotta come dichiarato (solo giapponese). Scale ripide, assenza di ascensore. Stanza singola piccolissima (una volta aperto il futon non c'era spazio neanche per la valigia).

安くて気楽な宿
応対してくださった方はきさくな方でよかったです。夜寝るときに電気を消したら真っ暗になったので、 小さな照明があると助かります。テレビがなかったのは、料金が安いからですよね。それはそれでいいです。ゆっくり寝られました。

Nice and clean guesthouse
The staff at the guesthouse were great to help with any questions. This guesthouse it a bit different than most others in that it doesn’t have a lounge area to hang out and meet other guests. The location is very convenient for the train station and local attractions.

Wonderful small hotel in a great location in Kyoto
We loved this place! Very small and quaint, maybe about 8 rooms total? The place was very clean - almost immaculate. The staff was wonderful. It has everything you need in Kyoto, including being very close to Kyoto station! Would 100% stay again. Thanks!

The room is very dirty and small
This is not a hotel or hostel. It is just a house, and owner divided into many small rooms. Unfortunately, the room was very small and dirty. The bed was also very dirty too. Pillows were so hard, and the most terrible thing is that the smell of the room was so bad. I can not sleep all night and feel very tired next day.
