10/10 Exceptional

Friendly staff; good location; chilled vibes. Beds had the essentials - personal light, curtain and electrical sockets; with a bit of extra space for storage. Traditional thin Japanese mattress but I found it comfortable enough. Good shower. All in all an excellent value hostel - the only improvement that could be made would be a better pillow as it was practically as thin as a piece of paper

リーズナブルで京都らしい

周辺は静かですが、辻を折れれば大通りに面して、バス停も近いので便利でした。室内は落ち着いた雰囲気で、ベッドが畳というのも京都らしくて良かったです。利用料金以上の価値がありました。

Beautiful, traditional and clean

Traditional and beautiful Japanese style guesthouse, which was more than I expected. The place was extremely clean and the beds/mats were suprisingly very comfortable. As people have pointed out, this place is small but I didn't see it as a problem. They provide tea and coffee, towels, shampoo etc. Only con of this place would be the fact that there's no airconditioner in the dormitory. How ever, the dormitory area is connected to a balcony which has an AC and a fan. They usually opened the balcony door and turned the AC on at bed time, so the dormitory wasn't too hot at all (even though it got pretty hot during the day). This is something you should consider if you're traveling Japan during the hottest season (I was traveling in the end if June). Over all I had a very good stay!

Très mignon

Petite chambre plutôt traditionnelle, très confortable. Un personnel prévenant et poli, comme tout japonais, mais en un poil plus détendu ;-)

雙人房太窄，相片顯示的size以為是雙人房，誰不知是家庭房連接上下層樓梯亦太窄，整體上只是適合單人入住，廚廁共用，亦只適合單身男士比較方便

추천하지 않습니다.

정원이 보이는 사진은 거실이 아고 개인방입니다. 여기저기 먼지가 쌓여있다. 거실은 3명이 앉을 자리밖에 없고 어둡고 좁다. 도저히 거기서는 잠을 잘 수가 없어서 호텔을 변경했습니다.

최고의 배낭여행숙소

최고였다 일본 가정집 느낌의 게스트하우스로 1층에 있는 테이블에서 외국친구들과 놀며 즐겁게 보낼 수 있다 자전거 렌트도 가능하며 교토시내에서 매우 가깝다 정말 일본 가정집에서 자는 느낌이여서 더 좋았다

6/10 Good

Location and service is excellent and the pantry area is wonderful with free coffee and tea and bath towel provided! My only grouses are that without heating, the beds are too cold and if you go, pick the upstairs bed rather than the beds below because the beds above creak badly and disturb the person below a lot. Otherwise the bedding is very comfortable. For the price of the dormitory beds though, it’s a good choice but not so comfortable in the winter.

10/10 Exceptional

駅やコンビニ、飲食店、二条城などの観光地も近いゲストハウスです。京都らしい和風で古い家屋のような宿で、ドミ以外には大部屋もあるようです。全て畳の部屋です。スタッフもとても気さくで親切です。自由に使えるキッチンと冷蔵庫、コーヒーと紅茶が無料で飲めます。wifiも快適です。バスタオルも無料でついています。 古い施設なので階段や廊下を歩くとギシギシと音がなって、深夜は気をつけなければなりません。シャワールームは一つしかなく、早いもの勝ちです。清潔かどうかで言えば、良くも悪くもないという感じ。夜が少し寒いです。（10月下旬） 正直もっと設備のいいゲストハウスやホテルはいくらでもあると思いますが、アットホームで古風な雰囲気とフレンドリーなスタッフ、共有スペースでの交流などとてもいい時間が過ごせます。
