Nice location since it was right next to a seven eleven and walking distance from the kyoto station. It’s also right near a bus stop and nice food places nearby.

Great location within reasonable walking distance of Kyoto station! Definitely showing its age though - AC was broken (flap would stay closed unless forced open manually)

This hotel is such great value for your money. I've also stayed in this chain hotel in Tokyo. It is very clean with comfortable beds and good wifi connection. They provide more amenities they similar American chain hotels. They are also located in popular tourist areas and close to public transportation. The double rooms are very compact. As a solo traveler I have found them to be comfortable.

Close to Kyoto station. 7 eleven right next door.
The rooms are not really soundproof, I could hear my neighbours laugh and cough, but at night was really quiet.
Rooms are really small (it was not an issue for me) but the bed is super comfortable.
