I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The room was incredibly clean and probably one of the best I've experienced in Japan. It was lovely and cozy with a small balcony, plus having coffee available in the lobby was a great touch. The zen garden view from my room created such a chill vibe. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, making my stay even more enjoyable. However, the location made me feel a bit bad for the neighbors and it was pretty dead around the area. The proximity to the station and Kiyomizu-dera temple was convenient for my visits, creating a relaxing stay overall.
