新しくてきれいでした。オペレーションがシステム化されているのでスタッフさんたちとの会話はそんなになかったのですが気持ち良い挨拶が交わせました。老舗のボロい旅館に泊まるより断然こちらのほうが快適です。ただし、朝食は私の口に合いませんでした。多分リピートするときは素泊まりです

5 / 5 Excellent

こちらで2泊しました。レビューでの評価が高すぎて、サクラなのかなと少し不安でしたが…本当によかったです。立地について、バス停前、コンビニ横、大きな駅が徒歩圏内でよかったです。壁も厚く、隣の部屋や道路の音は一切気になりませんでした。歯ブラシとタオル以外のアメニティも豊富で、宿泊費の分質を下げているということは全く感じませんでした。チェックイン前・チェックアウト後も快く荷物を預かっていただきました。注意事項としては、ルームサービスは歯ブラシとタオル・ゴミ箱の中身回収だけなのと、チェックインの支払いは機械を通して外国人スタッフとのやりとりです。多少日本語が聞き取りづらかったものの、すぐ近くに日本人スタッフも数人いたので何も不自由はなかったです。浴槽はないですが、きっちりとドアを締められる(洗面所がびしょびしょになる心配はありません！)清潔なシャワールームに、通常のシャワーの他、上・横から浴びられるシャワーの計3つがあり、背中までしっかり洗えます。値段以上のホスピタリティに大満足でした。また京都へ来る際はこちらを選ぶと思います。ありがとうございました！
