9.2/10 Wonderful! (117 reviews)

I had such a great stay here! The room and bathroom were super clean, and the water pressure was amazing. They provided really nice shampoo, conditioner, and body wash that smelled so good. The comforter was soft, fluffy, and super cozy — perfect after a long day of exploring. The location couldn’t be better — I could easily walk to Yasaka Pagoda, Gion District, Nishiki Market, and several temples. There are lots of restaurants nearby, plus convenience stores like Lawson, 7-Eleven, and Family Mart just around the corner. There’s even a tax-free shop right across the street. The train station is only about 2 minutes away, which made getting around so easy. Overall, super comfortable stay in a perfect location. Would definitely stay here again!
