My stay at the hotel was overall enjoyable, thanks to the spacious and clean rooms and the proximity to various attractions. However, the service could use some improvement, especially during peak hours. While the dining options were decent, I wished for more variety. The facilities, especially the pool area, were a highlight for me. I felt the price was fair for what I received, but the service aspect left a bit to be desired.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is situated just next to the Kyoto Railway Museum and Kyoto Aquarium, making it super convenient for sightseeing. The rooms were quite spacious and clean, contributing to a comfortable experience overall. However, I found the breakfast options a bit limited, which was a letdown. While the service was generally friendly, the overall atmosphere could feel a bit impersonal at times.
