Single room is too small room and the design of the room is not optimizing the small space. If you have large suitcase, you have to put it at the entrance which will either block the entrance door or the toilet door. You will need to keep moving your suitcase to open one of that doors (they don’t allow you to put your suitcase on tatami mat). But well, that is something I can still tolerate despite the room rate is not that cheap. The only thing I cannot tolerate is the staff being inconsiderate and not allowing me to spend max of 5 mins to perform my prayer after checking out (I asked whether I can use their laundry room, they said no and not giving any other alternative at all). There was not many guest at that time (around 3pm) so chances of them using the laundry room is zero. Other hotel/hostel that I have stayed before are fine with it so this is my first time experiencing this. If I know they are that inconsidered, I would have dropped by kyoto tower and perform my prayer first before collecting my luggage. That “5 mins” costs me 1 hour detour to kyoto station dragging my heavy lugagge. While kyoto is becoming more muslim friendly city, this hotel is certainly not up to the par

I stayed alone in a Japanese Standard Room. Half of the room is tatami space, so you may forget to take off your shoes, so it's convenient to bring disposable slippers as amenity.
I heard that it was about a 30-minute walk to Kiyomizu-dera Temple, so I left the hotel around 7:00 and went sightseeing there. The shops were not open yet, so I couldn't look at souvenirs or buy snacks, but there were only a few tourists, so I was able to enjoy sightseeing at my own pace. On the way back around 8:30, the number of tourists started to increase, so I recommend going earlier.
I had breakfast at the hotel. The toaster for warming bread browns quickly, so I think it's best to toast it in small increments of about 1 minute.

This hotel is very close to Kiyomizu Gojo Station, right by the Kamogawa River. It is also the same hotel I stayed in when I went to Kyoto for the second time. It is quite convenient. The hotel registration is on the second floor. You have to go through a long and narrow corridor to enter. The room is not very big, and it is a bit troublesome to unfold the suitcase, but the tatami bed is still quite comfortable.

We booked a connecting room for three people. The price was a bit high, but it provided many disposable practical items, including small packages of facial cleansers, lotions, and various tea bags, which can be picked up free of charge on the first floor; the hotel front desk can help with restaurant reservations, but the English of the lady at the front desk is not that good, but the service is very enthusiastic.

Stayed for two nights. The place is OK. There is Kamo River at the door and Keihan Railway Station is next to it. There are buses downstairs. It is within walking distance of Kiyomizu Temple, Yasaka Shrine and Shijo. There is also a convenience store and a drugstore downstairs. It is more than one kilometer away from Kyoto Station. It is a very unique small room with a spacious bathroom. It is a bit difficult to open a large suitcase. I would like to stay here again next time. Breakfast is 1,000 yuan, but I forgot to make a reservation and didn't eat it.

This price for two people is really a good deal. You still have to do your homework online in advance, so that you can consume directly at the store, which is convenient and cost-effective~
This is the only hotel I rebooked after staying here. . .
Breakfast, very good,
Location, 1 minute walk from Kamo River, 15 minutes walk from Kiyomizu Temple, both very close.

I used this facility for taking an exam.
They were very kind and allowed me to use the lounge as a study space.
The room was quiet, so I was able to approach the exam calmly.

The room was smaller than I thought, but considering the price and location, I am satisfied! And it was nice that they changed the towels every day. However, there are no toothbrushes and toothpaste, so bring your own! I intend to book again next time. ㅎㅎ

The hotel is cheap and very nice, but it's a little dark. Other than that, everything was good.

It's right outside the Beijing-Banzhou Line station. The entrance is quite small and you have to walk into the alley to take the elevator. There is a 7-star hotel downstairs with tatami beds. The breakfast is good and the price/performance ratio is high.

The Japanese-style room had a nice atmosphere, and the futon was fluffy, so I slept soundly! The breakfast had more variety than I expected and was delicious! It wasn't a large room, but the cost performance, location, cleanliness, and service were all perfect! The person at the front desk was also very nice! The room type I stayed in seemed inconvenient for people with large luggage such as trunks, so I think it would be a good idea to get a larger room.
