APA Hotel Kyoto Eki Horikawadori

8/10 Good

"This hotel was nice and in a good location. Rooms were quite small and I did not get to use the onsen due to having tattoos and only being able to cover up two small portions with the patches so that was a bummer. Breakfast was good but not many options for non dairy/no meat diet."
