My family lives in Tokyo, and we always stay in Kyoto for two days on red days. Although this time it is the May Day peak, the housing prices are still high. But it was the one I was most satisfied with. We stayed as a family of 3 and the sofa switched perfectly to a bed at night. The surprise was the kitchen and tableware, which were very thoughtful. The groceries we bought at the supermarket in Kyoto were exactly the same as those in Tokyo.
Therefore, this place is very suitable for families, especially families living in Japan. Another surprise was the antique shop in Gion. I will come again next time.

Amazing

It is located on Hanami-koji Road in Gion, and is easy to find.
Be sure to pay attention to the check-in at the front desk⚠️, it is fully self-service.
You cannot check in early, it is only possible at 15 o'clock.
It took a lot of time to figure out the check-in: you need to scan the code with your mobile phone camera, fill in the 4-digit password given by the hotel email after the pop-up window appears, and then follow the steps.
There is usually only one hotel waiter, but it seems that one person is responsible for cleaning the entire apartment, so he is often not at the front desk.
The apartment is very new and clean. The 35-square-meter room has a kitchen for cooking and windows that can be opened for ventilation.
During the stay, the room will not be cleaned. If you need to change towels, you can ask the waiter.
It is very close to Chion-in, Yasaka Shrine, Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and Takashimaya.
There is a fresco nearby where you can buy vegetables and cook.
Self-guided tours are recommended.

Japanese style and facilities, tatami, experience Japanese style, the bed is quite comfortable, better than expected. There is a car to pick up the hotel when you get off the bus. The hotel has many rules, so just be careful when staying for one day. You can see the lake in the room, and the environment is good. At 8 pm, all restaurants and pubs around the hotel are closed, so you have to hurry to eat. Fortunately, there are convenience stores nearby where you can buy food and hot meals.
