“This hotel struck me as a particularly good find for solo female travelers, offering a sense of safety and genuine immersion in Kyoto's atmosphere. While a bit removed from the main train station, the quiet neighborhood and kind owner create a welcoming environment. I think the clean, well-maintained rooms and readily available laundry facilities enhance the overall experience, making it a practical and pleasant choice.”
