“Very dirty hotel. You get what you pay for.”
They offered a free shuttle back to Kyoto station and free luggage storage before check‑in and after check‑out. The hotel’s price is noticeably lower than nearby options. The staff were polite but very strict about check‑in times. We arrived at about 1 pm, asked to leave our luggage until the room was ready, and the employee abruptly told us, “Your room is not ready. Check‑in after 3:00.” He didn’t even know my name or reservation details, so it seems they enforce the 3:00 rule strictly. We stored our bags and explored Kyoto until 4 pm when we returned to check in. On the 7th floor (the top), the elevator exit smelled like a restaurant dumpster and the hallway carpet was stained. Our room had wall stains and a dark red/brown spot on the carpet under the bed. The shower had black mold, someone’s beard trimmings on the sink, and a previous guest’s fake eyelashes on the carpet. The handheld shower nozzle was misconnected, so switching from the shower head caused water to spray everywhere. Both bath towels were tiny and rough; one hand towel had a large dark stain. The bed was a slight step up from the floor, and the mattress was extremely firm. I usually sleep comfortably on any surface, but my spouse was disappointed that the reviews claiming a soft, comfortable bed were false. There were no nightstands or side outlets, only two loose power outlets and two USB‑A ports in the center of the headboard—plugging anything in risks hitting it while tossing on the uncomfortable bed all night.
