tatami mats air conditioning famous spots unusual odor dirty shower shower baskets
the tatami mats felt nice. the air conditioning worked well in my private room. it was a pleasant walk to many famous spots. i could wake up and walk to yasaka shrine easily.
the room had a smell that bothered me. i thought it might be normal for ryokans at first. other ryokans did not have this unusual odor. i found the shower baskets consistently looked dirty.

Charming Stay in Traditional Japanese Style

equipped kitchen cozy common room free yukatas
I really enjoyed the traditional style of this accommodation. There was a kitchen stocked with coffee, tea, dishes, a microwave, a cooker and a kettle. I spent time in the common room upstairs (it was SO cozy!). Free yukatas and ear plugs were available, i thought that was a nice touch.
The soundproofing was minimal so it was a little hard to sleep at times.

The accommodation provides convenient access to major shrines. I walked everywhere in the area and it wasn't far from the train station. Exploring was easy due to its proximity to local attractions.

My room had a garden view, something I found very peaceful. The futon was comfortable, resulting in restful sleep. Natsuki at the front desk offered superb assistance. I appreciated that greatly.
The dryer cycle lasted only 15 minutes, which I found insufficient.

I found the staff very helpful. They spoke fluent english. my room was near yasaka shrine, a very convenient location. the proximity to a bus stop made traveling easy. It was close to many destinations.
the soundproofing in the building was minimal due to its age. i could hear a lot of noise, especially since my room was downstairs. this made it difficult to sleep well.
