I would rate this hotel a 2/5 stars, and the 2 stars is because of the great location in relation to everything.
Pros:
-It is located very close to Kawaramachi Dori so you're just steps away from all of the shopping, and just a few minute walk from Gion.
Cons:
-I understand that hotel rooms in Japan are small, but this was the smallest hotel room I have every stayed in. Having the sink in the walkway by the front door is so inconvenient.
-You pay the bill upon check in, and the assumption is that all is settled. After the first night, I received a note under the door stating that I owed money. I had paid in Yen, and it matched the amount that I had originally booked months before. Because of the language barrier, the front desk person kept on repeating that I owed them money but couldn't explain why I did.
