“Perfect”
The beds and the room itself was fantastic. Location was also amazing, near Nijo castle/station and away from most tourists with shops and resturants all in walking distance

The rooms were clean, the lobby was comfortable, it was very easy to retrieve the keys and navigate ourselves to and from the hotel since it was close to JR Nijo station and the Tozai subway station. The facilities were okay, too.

“An excellent place to stay”
Excellent location in a quiet area with train stations easily accessible. The surrounding streets are lovely and there are a lot of convenient parking lots nearby if need be. A 5 minute walk to a lovely shopping street. A very comfortable and clean property and the owners were very responsive.

“Extremely disappointing: instead of rest, I spent the nights among bed bugs, on the floor, and in the smell of chemicals”
i liked the room, it was spacious with a nice interior. there was a big tatami area with a table, a bathroom, and a full-length mirror which was very convenient.

“We enjoyed the stay in this property, but would feel better if it has two separated rooms.”
The property is located in a very quiet and historical area. It's a short distance walk from the Nijo station and Nijo castle. The room is clean and in good condition.

When I told the stuff that my phone couldn't connect to the WiFi, they provided me a Pocket WiFi which came really handy. They have always been helpful and supportive.
