Lovely little guesthouse. The staff were really kind. Very clean. Good value.

It was in a quiet part of the neighborhood but still in close proximity of Kyoto station. The proprietress converses really well in English, was friendly, and I really appreciated the extra mile of preparing my room in advance since she expected that I was coming in tired from an overnight flight. It's a really good for value property in Kyoto. Amenities included a towel, a toothbrush, a cotton robe. There's free coffee and tea if you wish to have some. There's also hand soap and toothpaste in the common washing area and a hair dryer, shampoo, and body soap in the baths. There's a laundry area, a refrigerator, and a microwave. In the room there are hangers, a television, and facial tissue. They empty the trash daily and fluff your beddings too. There's also a night light/small lamp in the room, a table, and a chair. The main door is never locked and there weren't time restrictions mentioned about bathing and hair drying which is common in other shared guesthouses. All these were positives for me since I start early or arrive late and don't need to be bothered about bathing schedules or being back at a certain time.

The shared bathrooms are mixed gender (very minor issue for me since the bathrooms are kept very clean and there's a deodorizer available for both cubicles) and if you're used to using a hair mask or conditioner you need to bring your own. Also, Google Maps might point you to the inn's door on the side of the major road. Go to the side alley as the proper entrance is there.

The staff were very helpful and polite, they made me very comfortable. For shared spaces and bathrooms it was exceptionally clean. It was near Kyoto station and right next to the bus stop so very convenient.
