Lovely hostel in a beautiful building - inside and out. Location was convenient, close to Kyoto Station and every attraction was easily reachable by public transport. While the room itself wasn't big the bed was spacious and comfortable with a shelf. The other facilities were great as well, there were several showers and toilets on the floor - all clean and well equipped, same with the kitchen downstairs. Bonus that there was a wonderful sento closeby. Overall I had an amazing stay, really enjoyed it!

the property had such a lovely, traditional house aesthetic which felt very cosy and comfortable yet the facilities were modern and kept clean. the dormitories are quite tight in space however this is more than made up for the fact that the bed space is very big, and you have a little desk, mirror and storage space in the bunk so it feels like a little room rather than just a bed. the staff are very welcoming - the stairs to the upstairs rooms are very steep and narrow and i had large luggage and the lady who checked me in helped me carry it up! the co-working space is also very nice and clean - it is stocked with free tea, coffee and sugar as well as space heated and heated blankets we could use (which were much needed because of the winter chill). its in a very central location, just a ten minute walk from gojo station which takes you to kyoto station, and a two minute walk to kiyomizu-gojo station which takes you to gion and fushimi inari! theres also a little collection of shrines nearby which are a nice small visit. i definitely recommend coming to this place, it is such a gem!

while i was there one of the washing machines was broken, which meant that everyone staying there was sharing one washing machine. it would have been nice if it had been fixed quickly or replaced, but not a huge issue!

The hotel is tucked away in a quiet alley, making it very peaceful. The design is beautiful, and the old building has been well preserved. Oh, and there’s also a really cool public bathhouse nearby — highly recommended for a unique experience.

The room I stayed in had a slight smell of smoke. Also, considering it has a shared bathroom, the price is a bit on the high side. Other than that, everything was great overall. I’d also recommend not bringing large suitcases, as you’ll need to climb a very steep staircase to reach the room, which can be a bit dangerous.

Cozy, modern, looks like the pictures! Capsules are spacious. Kitchen clean and well equipped! Very good internet and calm and pleasant co working space. Close to many useful bus stops, and a walk away from many good tourist attractions. Placed in a pleasant and calm street, with a river close to it.

I wish the co working space had more options for relaxation. A couple of comfortable chairs or a couch with a backrest would've been really nice after a long day when you just want to relax.

The beds were comfortable, and it was peaceful. Bathrooms were clean and maintained well. The building is a little old and corridors narrow. Downside is that the building has no elevator so be ready to carry the luggage up one set of stairs. The place to keep luggage was congested - you would end up blocking other people's movement if you want to take stuff out of the bag. The location is very close to subway and accessible to the city. They have Yamato services and stored by luggage 2 days prior to my arrival.

The hostel was very nice. My room was spacious. Best of all, I've been to many hostels and had never had one with water pressure in the shower this good. I did use the laundry machine and the dryer didn't dry my clothes completely even after an hour, so I hung my clothes to dry in my room, but otherwise the place was great. The building is quite old but I think my neighbours were pretty quiet so I didn't have a hard time sleeping. No traffic sound coming into my room either.

The hostel is located on a small cozy street in a wooden building. It looks very authentic. On the ground floor is a common room with small kitchen. The space is very comfortable for work. Upstairs are the rooms with slided doors. Every pod is very big with spacious bed, long table/shelf, two sockets, light and side space for personal items. The shower has shampoo, conditioner and body shower. The basins are located in the corridor. The location is very close to Kyomizu Temple and historic streets, also close to Gion. For those who are interested, there are also public bath just 5 minutes away from hostel. The towels are for a fee but the umbrellas are free to rent. You can also buy other amenities at the desk.

It wasn’t very clean. The staff is cleaning constantly, the problem lies mostly on hostel guests, unfortunately not everyone is trying to keep it clean. And another discomfort was a huge column in front of the bed and because the space between beds are narrow, it was quite tricky to climb out of pod and around the column.

The sleeping area is spacious and the bed is comfortable! The bathroom and showers were always clean. The hostel is also nearby downtown and the river and I loved walking along the river when I go around the area. The staff were also kind enough to help me out when I asked for help wearing yukata.

I went during summer and airconditioning in the room was not the best, but also not that bad that you’ll lose sleep at night.

Very lovely hostel with great facilities. The room was spacious, quiet and comfortable. Perfectly located near the Gion area. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The shared kitchen and workspace were really good. I would highly recommend it, excellent value for money!

Absolutely amazing experience staying here! It’s a mix of convenience, comfort and traditional vibes in Japan! Bed was comfy and the room was just stunning, walls are thin but we had no issues at all with noise! Facilities were amazing it’s like modern meets traditional! It had a communal kitchen/sitting room area downstairs which was also brilliant! Would definitely stay again!!!
