This place had a great location, close to the train station and no more than 30 minute walks or train rides to most tourist attractions and food. Staff were super friendly and it was very clean. However, if you are used to a softer or thicker mattress, the beds will hurt your back. My partner and I were in a lot of pain after our stay because of the bed and pillow. It was an overall great stay but the beds could hurt you if you’re staying for a longer period.

It's basically a hostel with single rooms. Mostly quiet but it's impossible to close the room door without making a noise that everyone can easily hear. The price is good but there is a significant cost for late check-in.

This is a unique hostel with its Japanese charm. Place is in excellent location—- about 15- minutes walk to Kyoto station, a couple minutes to a subway station & to bus stops. I was able reach popular destinations easily with public transportation. Convenient store & McDonald’s are just a couple minutes walk as well. Though, good to venture local restaurants. As a solo female traveler, I definitely felt safe. Very close to a scenic river. I had a double room with a bunk bed. However, I happened to not have a roommate & had the room all to myself! It has a window. Charming bed, with Japanese mattress & pillow. There’s a rooftop terrace. Laundry is inexpensive—only 100 yen for both wash & dry. Tea bags of different variety are available & complimentary. I specifically like the one of brown rice. I got to meet & talk with other people from other countries while at the lobby. It was fun! Mr. Ace is a wonderful host. He speaks excellent English, very accommodating, down-to-earth, helpful of suggestions of places to see in Kyoto. Provided assistance with my huge luggage in check-in & check-out process. I need to travel lightly next time. I highly recommend this charming hostel. Will definitely come back!

Price and location the real draw

Basically a self serve guesthouse. Was not used to waking 3 flights down to take a shower, no hanger for towels at the public washing basin and inside pf public toilet, and no TV. But after a couple of days I got used to it and it was OK. Location very convenient ot subways and buses. Price is right also.

교통

교토는 버스와 지하철이 잘 되어 있어서 지하철역과, 버스정류장이 가까이 있어서 좋았습니다. 기요미즈테라가 가장 유명한데 숙소에서 걸어가기에는 멀었습니다.

Auberge simple et confortable

C’est très simple, c’est le principe de l’auberge avec douche et wc à partager. Le futon sur tatami est confortable, on dort bien. Et c’est très propre. Donc une bonne note, en lien avec le genre d’établissement. Métro tout proche

Che meraviglioso!! なんと素晴らしい！！

本当に快適に過ごせました。女性の4人部屋を使用しました。同室の人は外国人達だったのですが、皆と仲良くおしゃべりしました。1回目は夜中に鍵の解錠に手間取っていた台湾ガールを昔取った杵柄、お手伝いしました。翌朝出発時間に遅れそうなほど会話。今回の2回目はドイツからのお嬢さん、本当に楽しく爆笑！彼女の独学の日本語もまた楽し。メンバーは時の運ですが、施設が一番素晴らしい。オーナーの人柄も含め、清潔感、機能性、ロケーション、普段はゲストハウス、ユースホステルには宿泊しないのですが(年齢的に笑)なんかいいですね、癖になりそうです。私は未使用でしたが、ランドリーも便利そう。シャワーも快適、キッチンも調味料、ティーの用意、ゴミの選別、リビングも良い、屋上からの見晴らし、清水さん、比叡山、京都タワー、 近所の昔ながらの喫茶店etc.良い思い出ができました。バスも1本で10分少々で東山へ到達、素晴らしい。また機会があれば 利用したいと思っています。ありがとうございました!
