Atención despersonalizada y sucio

Cuando llegamos había un olor en el piso de abajo muy desagradable, ahí mismo se encuentra la ducha, por lo que no nos dió confianza bañarnos. Nunca encontramos a nadie para reportarlo y como íbamos a estar más días, decidimos cambiar de hotel. A lo que tampoco hubo nadie para revisar que habíamos hecho el check out antes.

快適に過ごせたのですが、 共同部屋のとなり客が、朝4時～7時に小声で礼拝？を2日間されて、少し困った。 異文化体験と思えば、面白いかも。

4/10 Fair

I like that I get to experience a nice Kyoto neighborhood. The service could be improved. I felt like the staffs were not friendly every time I said hi. They also turn off the AC in the middle of the might and even if it runs, it’s usually very light so I try to turn on the fan at the same time to avoid sweating. However, it’s hard to sleep due to the fan noises.

Pour petits budgets

Parfait pour les étudiants et les petits budgets. Pour les autres, vous pourrez obtenir plus de services et de confort pour quelques dollars de plus.
Danny, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location was not very central, but still ok, with some supermarkets and restaurants close by. The staff were all amazing and extremely helpful and friendly in suggesting things to see and do as well as just socialising and helping with booking transport etc. The hostel is quite old and the dorms especially are very minimalistic and somewhat run down. There was some issue with the air conditioning one of the nights, but it was sorted out for the next night. The bathrooms and showers were clean and there was a nice common area. The kitchen had the needed amenities, and I really liked the fact that they let you use the shower and kitchen even after you check out. It creates a very hospitable, generous, welcoming feeling :)

Great staff, fun stay

Personally, I loved this location. It was quiet, had plenty of convenience stores around, and the living area was so cozy. I can see how people not prepared for something minimalist may not enjoy this hotel, but I thought it was so fun. It almost reminded me of a summer camp, and the staff was super friendly!

Perfect stay for the price. Very practical and good location within the city. Also highly recommend the bike rental, as it's pricing is also superb (is this even a word^^).

バス停、コンビニ、スーパー、食事処、周辺施設が充実

ドミトリールームは、二段ベッドではなくカプセルホテルのような洞穴みたいな寝床のため、閉所の苦手な人は寝にくいかも。あと共有スペースにテレビないので、日本人にはちょっと退屈かも。泊まりに来る外国人のマナーは良い人が多いので、共有スペースでお話するのは楽しい宿です。

大満足

(全て料金とのみあいで)京都の街中(ちょっとはずれ)にもかかわらず、この料金で宿泊できるとは驚きです。バスはシャワーしかありませんが近隣(4㎞ 、車なので)のスーパー銭湯でゆっくり、夕食もここでとって、大満足。 私達夫婦以外は国外から観光に来られた方々です。でも、よく理解していてむやみに話しかけてきたりしません。 自分としては、スピードなんとかで英会話習得中なので、話しかけられてもよかったのですが…。 これからは、京都での宿泊はゲストハウスに限ります
