Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
This hotel is (IMHO) perfectly average. Clean, safe, in an excellent location.
Cons: They practice sustainable housekeeping so sheets are only changed every 3 days unless requested earlier. Windows require staff to open, they generally keep them locked closed because they're concerned about guests making too much noise for the neighbors. The attached restaurant is only open for breakfast and doesn't offer much besides bread. There aren't fans in the toilet rooms, so airflow can be a problem in there. There is laundry but there is not a pool, spa, or gym.
Pros: Suites come with free Keurig coffee, staff is extremely kind and helpful, location was excellent for exploring Kyoto.
Overall I would say that you could get more amenities for the same price than staying here, especially since the subway system is prolific and a lot of Kyoto is very walkable.
