Kitchenette shown in pictures is a shared one and not particularly clean. Room so small that suitcases would need to be stored outside of room when futons deployed, Bathroom tiny cubicle in corner, Room facilities quoted on tiny table at floor level in corner and not very useable. No clothing storage. Air conditioning did not work. To sum up totally uninhabitable for a couple. Checked out after five minutes in room and lost my money.

Convenient
Location was ok, about 10 min away from Kyoto Station. Not so much to do there at night, but there's 7-eleven nearby which proved very convenient. Everything was very clean. Room size was ok but the bathroom was a bit small. There's not much interaction between guests, and one should keep quiet at night. The owner was very nice. Overall, it was a good experience.

초여름이라 그럴수도 있겠지만 조금 습한것 외엔 좋았습니다. 여름 이용시엔 제습/ 난방 등을 돌려 습기를 제거하는 것이 더 쾌적할것같네요. 주변 도보거리로 교토역과 빵집, 이자카야, 버스정류장, 지하철역, 박물관 등이 있어 이동이 용이합니다.
