Good location.
Posted 30 Nov 2018 on HotelsConvenient location, friendly staff,cheap bike rental. It is a bit run down. The staff are very helpful but I would spend a little more and get a much better value elsewhere.

Charming!
Posted 1 Nov 2018 on HotelsExtremely helpful staff who called up Shinkansen services to locate a lost bag. They went out of their way to find it and where incredibly friendly throughout the stay! Traditional style house which adds to the feel of staying in Kyoto, good central location within easy walking distance from buses and subway networks to all the various temples you might want to see. Very simple! It seemed like they’d been doing it well for a long time :)

A bit run down in places, and the double room was quite cramped with an old bed, but apart from that our stay was okay. Staff were helpful and the building was beautiful and well positioned to Nijo Castle, bus routes and Kyoto Station (by bus/taxi).

Worst hostel I've stayed in ever.
Posted 2 Jun 2017 on HotelsThe front desk workers were all catty, rude, spoke little English, and weren't helpful at all. They wanted us to wait ten minutes to check-in after we had been waiting for hours because they were "busy doing something". The walls are paper thin, not enough toilets for the amount of people staying there. Don't stay here. Overpriced and you can find better.

Friendly staff, interesting place to stay
Posted 28 Feb 2017I had a fantastic stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The building is quite small but i enjoyed it because it was still in the traditional Japanese design. Its a short walk to various forms of public transport and close to various sights to see.

Great hostel in central Kyoto near both castles. Nuri and the staff were friendly and accommodating. My only complaint was the size of the bicycles for rent, but you can rent down the street.
