Easily the best and affordable option especially if you plan to go solo. Staff was extremely friendly and You’re given a tour. You’re a 3 minute walk from a shrine and around 10-15 minute walk from the shopping strip if you want to look at high end designers or anything in between such as gifts or food. The floor I was on was quiet for the 2 nights I stayed. Bathrooms are public bathroom style so don’t expect much privacy if people walk in to brush their teeth or skin routine. They do have a tiny bar and a small hang out lounge. Check out the roof especially at night to see how beautiful Kyoto is.
