Staff were so friendly, polite and helpful. We were trying to find an onsen with a sauna, and the lady rang around for us. The place is very clean. Good location to food,station and attractions

There are many mosquitoes and the room is very small and stuffy.
Traditional japanese style room with matresses on the floor. Big room! Cool place, would go again!

Einfaches Zimmer, relativ sauber, in Ordnung.
Sehr einfach aber zweckmäßig, wir hätten auch relativ gut geschlafen wenn andere Hostelgäste nicht um 3 Uhr nachts eine lustige Gesprächsrunde eingeläutet hätten (durch die Papierwände hört man natürlich jeden Schritt und jedes Wort, was auch okay geht aber nicht um die Zeit). Zimmer war sauber, Dusche leider nicht, die Haare im Ablauf waren auch sicher nicht erst seit einem Tag dort. Mit dem kontaktlosen Check-hat alles prima geklappt, Handtücher waren leider erst etwas später verfügbar aber nicht dramatisch.
Small house East (best) side of Kyoto, it's is a small shopping street and I found the location excellent to go anywhere. Its an experience to stay in such building and also very good value for money. However, it come with the traditional houses' features including a complete lack of sound proofing. Bring hearplugs and stay quiet at night for the other guests. Was totally worth if for the price but set your expectations accordingly.
