Room was small but that’s normal here in japan and i actually liked it as a solo traveler. Staff was very helpful as well with assisting me with taqbin stuff and was overall very polite. It’s also close enough to the station.

Made a right choice
Stay was amazing, high quality for good price. Location was 7-10 mins walk from Kyoto Station and bus station (amazing). When booking at APA make sure you know the exact address where to go for check-in as APA is a chain of hotels and find the right one can be tricky. You can leave your luggage with them after check-out with no extra charge. Overall stay at this hotel was exceptional in all means. The hotel has Money Exchange booth.

I stayed in three APA properties on recent trip. The one in Kyoto provided best service, and staff speak good English. The room was sadly the smallest among the three, but it was a nice stay.
