Perfekt lรคge, charmigt stรคlle, men ganska obekvรคmt
Lรคget รคr perfekt! Vi รคlskade att promenera runt i omrรฅdet, sรคrskilt tidig morgon eller kvรคll, nรคr det inte รคr lika mycket folk och bilar รถverallt. Vandrarhemmet ligger pรฅ en lugn gata dรคr dock biltrafik รคr tillรฅten. Vi stรถrdes inget av larm utifrรฅn under natten, men vรคggarna รคr tunna sรฅ du kan hรถra din granne snarka. Man kan fรฅ รถronproppar gratis.
Bo hรคr om du vill fรฅ en smak av den japanska gamla stilen fรถr en billig peng. Vรคlj ett dubbelrum med trรคdgรฅrdsutsikt om du kan. Vรฅrt โtwin roomโ med varsin enkel futon (madrass) hade utsikt mot ett plank. Futonerna รคr tunna och de vackra tatamigolven nรฅgot ojรคmna sรฅ tyvรคrr blev det en ganska hรฅrd sรถmn. Vi la till slut madrasserna pรฅ varandra och sov pรฅ dem bรฅda tvรฅ. Det blev trรฅngt men bรคttre komfort. Dubbla futoner borde erbjudas mot en extra avgift!
Vi behรถvde aldrig kรถa till dusch eller toa. De var alltid stรคdade. Dock mรคrker man att det รคr ett hus med fuktproblem dรฅ nรฅgon av duscharna och toaletterna har lite lite mรถgel pรฅ vรคgg eller tak.
Boendet har ordet โryokanโ i namnet och tidigare fanns en badtunna fรถr gรคster. Den verkar dock ha slutat anvรคndas under pandemin. Synd! Det enda som nu pรฅminner om ett ryokan รคr den gamla stilen, inomhustofflorna och att du fรฅr lรฅna en yukata (enkel kimono av bomull) under vistelsen. Du kan inte kรถpa till nรฅgra mรฅltider pรฅ boendet. Namnet รคr alltsรฅ lite missvisande.
Totalt sett prisvรคrt, enkelt och charmigt boende med bra lรคge. Kan tรคnka mig att รฅtervรคnda!
Mainio hintalaatusuhde, ihana paikka ihanalla alueella. Pidin kaikesta, yรถvyn uudelleen. Ei sovellu liikuntaesteisille jyrkkien portaiden, kerrossรคnkyjen ja korkeuserojen vuoksi.
Nous avons passรฉs une nuit dans ce Ryokan. Trรจs propre, les espaces รฉtaient bien pensรฉs (mention spรฉciale pour la douche qui permettait ร un grand gabarit, je mesure 2m, de prendre sa douche confortablement et sans aucunes gรจne).
Si lo que es buscas es vivir una experiencia en algo verdaderamente tradicional de Kyoto, esta es una buena opciรณn. Sin embargo puede ser algo incรณmodo si eres grande o alto. El lugar estรก relativamente cerca de templos y paradas de autobuses.
La casa es preciosรญsima, estรก ubicada justo en una de las zonas mรกs aclamadas de Gion; la cocina estรก sรบper equipada y tambiรฉn hay un Onsen que puedes utilizar por una hora durante tu estancia con previa reservaciรณn.
El staff era raro, te sentรญas supervisada todo el tiempo, incluso el hostal estรก lleno de letreros que te advierten que estรกn bajo vigilancia, fuera de ello, sรบper recomendado.
While I didn't have the full ryokan dining experience here, it was still super-convenient to be walking distance from many of the sights I wanted to see! I only stayed one night, but I wish I had more time to interact with the friendly staff I did meet. Cute fish in the aquarium at the front!
Good to experience something like the traditional Ryokan. Perhaps a sign requesting guests to note that walls are of course thin so could they be more quiet late evening, would help better sleep.
The surrounding area was great. We climbed up to the mountain observation deck, I forget the name, sorry. Tons of local shops and still within walking distance to kyoto station(for us anyways, we walked everywhere). The mats were rough to sleep on but they offered us extra blankets to we were able to add some extra padding. Unfortunately no extra mats though.
Still a minor language barrier but the staff do their very best to decipher and help if they're able to.
