Helt OK rum när allt annat i Kyoto var upptaget”

Bra hotell i utkanten av kyoto”

Ett hotell med bra atmosfär, trevliga rum och bra personal. Ligger precis snett mittemot jr stationen Seta där det finns två convenierstore. Dock så finns inga restauranger i närheten. Tog oss ca 15 minuter med tåg att ta oss till Kyoto station vilket var helt okej dock så var det lite klurigt att förstå vilka tåg som stannade på Seta station. Frukosten var inget speciellt men håll en mätt ett tag.

We have reserved 1'st time.”

The rooms and facilities are satisfactory. The parking cannot be booked on NET. We want you to be able to make reservations for parking on NET.

Not Good.”

The room was not really that clean. We booked 2 rooms. 1 non-smoking and 1 smoking but both were on a smoking floor. The smoking room was filled with yellow stains (maybe from nicotine). However, it was the same for the non-smoking.

Unfortunate experience ”

The positives first - Good location, near station and good access to Kyoto and various locations around Lake Biwa - Affordable, especially compared to other hotels in area So room was basic but fairly in line with what you'd expect in a budget hotel. Very small but again you get what you pay for. It would have been fine had we not made some discoveries. After arriving, I did cough somewhat and wondered about dust. Apart from the window area (which hadn't been cleaned properly in a long time) the room did not first appear too dusty. This leads to two main negatives: 1. Having dropped something under the bed, when I retrieved it, I discovered a thick layer of dust and a number of trash items including a very dusty, brown stained hotel slipper and some rather oldplastic packaging. These were just at the edge. I did not check for anything else but could see a lot of dust snd dirt. The space under the bed was only 1-2 inches but clearly enough to collect dirt and trash. It was very unpleasant. 2. As it was late at night we did not report this. I found sleeping difficult. When we checked out in the morning I handed the slipper and packaging to reception staff and expressed how dirty the area beneath the bed was. They muttered sorry, reluctantly took the items and then just stared at me. I was really shocked by this response after this very unpleasant find. The slipper in particular was utterly filthy, indicating the state of the under the bed area, but the staff did not care. I'm quite happy to accept basic in a budget hotel. However, uncleanliness and indifference are unacceptable whatever you pay. We will not return. A proper apology and some recompense would have gone a long way, but now we will avoid this chain.

Great location ”

All pictures are accurate. The room is standard for Smile Hotel/ business hotel in Japan. Near the station. Very quiet.

Cleam Room and Polite Staff”

The room is clean and the staff are accommodating and polite. There is a convenience store nearby but you have more options for restaurants when you go to Kusatsu area or Kyoto.

hotel near train station”

overall is ok and nearby have many facilities

Utmärkt”

Good location as it is very near the train station (5mins walk away) and there are quite a few good restaurants around the area too. Nice scenery from the room. Friendly service staff as well! Thumbs up! Definitely will go back there again!

Utmärkt”

Location is away from city centre (about 15-20min train ride from Kyoto station) , but there are a few restaurants that open late into the night and the Lawson + 7-eleven kiosks. It is value for money, considering that the hotel serves free breakfast daily which is really great.

Nice Bed, Cosy Room, Friendly Staff”

Stayed just for one night, room was small but most in Japan are. TV and AC were good. Windows were openable in my room which is nice. Good food options nearby. Easy to park which was 800yen overnight. I would stay here again.

Value for money”

Value for money but a bit far from central of kyoto.

Free Coffee and Good location if you using JR Pass.”

2 mins walk from Seta Station. From Seta station to Kyoto Station only ard 20mins. Simple but nice breakfast . Free coffee from 3pm to 10pm for guests. Happy with my 3 nights stay. Highly recommend.

Near Train Station”

The place is no frill ind of hotel. It is located about 3 minutes walk from seta station. There are a few eateries nearby and convenient stores. Staff did not speak much english but very friendly.

good place”

very near to train station. May take a while to get to Kyoto but it's a good option to stay in which is more affordable. breakfast is good (and free) but runs out when there are a lot of guests and there are a few places to eat nearby.
