"Everything was great; probably the most spacious hotel you'll stay in Japan. Perfect location - Arashiyama was our absolute favorite area in Kyoto. Breakfast was delicious and staff was friendly and helpful. One of the staff members even graciously helped us book a reservation at the beautiful Shoraian restaurant local to Kyoto, which was amazing. Our only wish was to have researched a bit more to know that there isn't an elevator or ramps for this 3-story building before booking, so a warning for those who are looking for something easier for older folks or wheelchair accessibility. It wasn't as convenient for our senior mom, but otherwise, zero otherwise!"
