For an unmanned hotel, the facilities were really good. I think there were appliances that I would need, like a refrigerator and washing machine. However, there was no elevator, so it was difficult to drag my suitcase up the stairs. Also, the room door was hard to open. I think you would be very confused if it was your first time here. But the bathroom was really nice!

An experience full of flaws... The first is check-in. Originally, the hotel set up a self-service check-in. The password for the lockbox would be sent via email 2 days before departure, and guests could open the box and collect the key themselves upon arrival. But we still didn't receive the email one day before the booking date. So I asked Ctrip customer service, and the reply they gave was that it was not a self-service check-in, and there would be employees to handle it after arriving at the store. However, when we arrived at the store the next day, there was no one at all... We temporarily asked the cleaning staff and sent an email to the operator ourselves to get the password to open the box. I stood at the door for nearly two hours... Afterwards, Ctrip customer service admitted that they had made a mistake and refunded 200 yuan to settle the matter. Be sure to keep this in mind when booking later. Next is the hotel itself, evaluate it as objectively as possible. advantage: 1. Convenient transportation It is a 15-20 minute walk from Kyoto Station (Hachijo Exit) and is considered the city center. A 3-5 minute walk next to Tofukuji Station on the JR Nara Line and Keihan Electric Railway. These two lines can reach most famous attractions and even go directly to Uji and Nara. There are also many bus stations around, and you can go directly to Kiyomizu Temple. 2. Quiet environment Although it is in the city center, it is surrounded by purely residential areas, so it is quiet at night and you can have a good rest. 3. The view is acceptable The hotel is built next to the river. If you book a room with a view, you will have a small balcony. You can stand on the balcony and watch the river flowing downstairs. There are cherry blossom trees on both sides of the bank. It should be more beautiful in spring. shortcoming: 1. No elevator The hotel looks like a small three-story house. Although it is not high, it is not easy to climb the third floor if there are too many and heavy luggage. 2. Poor sound insulation The hotel itself is a wooden building (like most single-family houses in Japan), and the internal walls are poorly soundproofed. If there are many guests, the conversation in the next room can be heard clearly. 3. WIFI garbage The Internet speed is extremely slow. It can be tolerated during the day, but it is completely unusable at night. If I hadn’t gone to tourist attractions every day to check in and go to bed early at night when I was already tired, the experience would have been even worse. 4. Inconvenience in life It is surrounded by residents. Not to mention large shopping malls, there are only a few ordinary shops and restaurants. There are only 2 convenience stores, 5-6 restaurants and 1 cafe on the street in front of the station, otherwise you have to walk 15 minutes to reach the business district. It's almost time to arrive at Kyoto Station... 5. Average facilities Although there is a washing machine, laundry detergent is not provided, so I have to buy it myself. There is nowhere to dry the clothes after washing. There is only a small folding rack, but it is too short to hang large items of clothing. There is no wardrobe in the room, only three clothes hooks on the wall

This is the most comfortable room in this trip. The hotel is in a good location with convenient transportation. There are convenience stores and supermarkets nearby. The prices in the supermarkets are also very cheap. I will recommend more friends to come here in the future

Avoid This Place – Nightmare Experience I wouldn’t even give this place one star if I could! We booked this stay through ********** and paid everything in full a month in advance. After a long day exploring Nara and Uji, we arrived at the hotel at 7:50 pm with our 9-year-old son, only to find there was no receptionist or staff to assist with check-in. The only contact was via email, and they responded saying we hadn’t been given access codes because we supposedly owed some fee, attaching an unsafe link for payment. This was extremely frustrating as we had already paid in full through **********. After contacting **********, they confirmed there were no outstanding fees. Despite this, this place insisted we pay again to receive the passcode to enter the room. We reluctantly agreed, only to find the online payment link they provided didn’t work! Their "solution" was to ask us to walk 3 km to drop off cash. Seriously?! In a foreign country, with a young child, late at night—it was beyond ridiculous. We even offered to leave the money in the lockbox the next morning, but they refused to help until we paid. After hours of back-and-forth, they finally sent us the passcode to enter, but it didn’t work. We were stuck outside the hotel with no help until nearly 11 pm, exhausted and frustrated. With no other option, we had to leave and find another hotel for the night. This place is a total scam, with zero customer service or basic human decency. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all costs! I absolutely do not recommend staying here—as you will experience your worst nightmare coming true.
