It is far away from most attractions ending up spending lots taxi fares. Never informed beforehand that rooms are only cleaned up every three days, and you have to ask for changing towels and toilet papers in between. No formal restaurants except breakfast. Staff are friendly but the hotel needs to step up to be a true four star Best Western hotel.

Fall trip to Kyoto

Stayed at the property for 5 nights. The rooms were clean and the beds comfortable. The best thing about this hotel is its location. The bus routes u are most likely to take as a tourist pass within 100m of this hotel, so getting around is a breeze.
