"Another good stay. Good basic and clean accommodation, being winter I did find it rather cold this time and could have done with another or thicker duvet but the accommodation itself lacks nothing, well positioned in a nice suburban area of Kyoto close to transport, and it's own shrines and onsens."

8/10 Good
"Lovely little hotel in a wonderful part of Kyoto. Was very close to all the shopping and the Nishiki Market. The rooms were a nice size and very comfortable. The 4 stars is because they clean the room every 3 days (although you can request more but got the feeling this was bit frowned upon)"
