“For travellers seeking a strategic location near Gion's enchanting geisha district and eastern shrines, this is a worthy consideration, though the nearest train station is a 10-15 minute walk; the welcoming staff clearly caters to an international clientele. The no-frills accommodations are a fine value, especially if a quiet place to rest is all you need. This straightforward spot presents a practical base for exploring Kyoto.”
