Staff were lovely and the hotel was so clean and comfortable. Location was central to a lot of shopping and dining options. Would absolutely stay here again. If you're considering a capsule/hostel stay in Japan, I'd highly recommend this one.

Perfect for solo travelers coming to Kyoto. Great location, great accommodation. Occasional noise from folks getting in late, but that’s to be expected. Easy access, clean showers, nice coworking space in the lobby.
