The hotel is conveniently located near Shijo and Karasuma stations, offering a nice place to relax and chat with friends. The rooms, though a bit chilly at first, can easily be warmed up. The friendly service at breakfast stood out, but could be more welcoming overall. The dining experience needs improvement in variety. The facilities are adequate, but some upgrades could enhance the experience.

The hotel's location is perfect for sightseeing in Kyoto and offers a great central spot to relax, chat, and enjoy drinks with friends. The rooms exceeded my expectations in terms of cleanliness and comfort, although I found them a bit chilly. The service, especially from the lovely ladies at breakfast, was top-notch, even without opting for cleaning services. While the dining experience needed more variety and an earlier start time for breakfast, the hotel's facilities were decent.

The hotel location is convenient, close to the center streets of Kyoto, and not far from the subway station. The room I stayed in was very small, with no space for luggage, making it a bit cramped for two people. The service was decent, with friendly staff at breakfast. The dining options had a mix of Western and Japanese food, but the variety could be improved. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay.

The hotel is conveniently located near both Shijo station and Karasuma station, making it perfect for sightseeing in Kyoto. The rooms were a bit small for two people and lacked space for luggage, but the air conditioning/heater quickly fixed the initial chilliness, although it could get stuffy. The service was pleasant, especially the ladies at breakfast, but could be a bit warmer. The dining options offered a mix of Western and Japanese food, but could use more variety. Overall, the hotel's prime location and friendly service offset some room limitations and dining shortcomings.
