This is a seemingly new hotel located close to Kyoto castle and many cafes around, and metro is a 10 minute walk away. The check in process was smooth.
However, surprisingly the hotel has some issues no one mentioned. First of all, out of 4 power outlets near the beds only one was working. Want to charge your phone? Get out of the bed. Don't understand how come the hotel electrician is not paying attention. Secondly, the WiFi was horrible. It kept switching on and off, signal strength was jumping low to high every few seconds. Before the checkout I had to have one small file sent - and the checkout is at 10AM already, so no traditional beauty sleep till noon for you. I was wandering around the room, then went to the corridor and ended up at the reception desk, where the nice and polite receptionist was only able to 🤷 about my troubles. After around 15 minutes of fruitless attempts instead of packing my stuff I returned to the room to quickly put everything in my bags only to hear the knock on the door: "if you don't leave the hotel ASAP we will charge you for an extra night". Uh ok.
Well, what can I say? Maybe it was just silly me with my silly little issues. But I am not staying here again.
Oh, yes, forgot to mention: if you leave in a hurry, be aware, there is no toilet in the hotel outside the guest rooms.
