"The room was a bit larger than most hotel rooms in which I stayed in Japanese cities (which are often quite small) and contained everything I needed; air-con, en-suite bathroom, fridge and kettle."

“For budget-conscious travellers, this could be a reasonable choice, though location requires some tube rides to Kyoto's eastern temples. While some rooms are reportedly larger and well-equipped, the experience seems inconsistent. The possibility of a smoking room and late-night street noise are definite drawbacks to consider.”

The en-suite bathroom was spotlessly clean. This was very important to me, and it exceeded expectations.
