    The place was close to a few convenience stores/ restaurants /grocery stores We stayed at this property for seven days, arriving just before the weekend. At first, the hotel was fully occupied, but by the end of the weekend all of the other guests had left, and we were the only guests remaining for several days. Unfortunately, once the other guests checked out, housekeeping appeared to stop altogether. For multiple days, common areas were not cleaned, and garbage left behind by previous guests remained on the property. The toilets were dirty, and there was hair throughout the bathrooms and other areas that had clearly not been cleaned properly. Another significant issue was that the lock on our room door did not function properly. Because we could not rely on the room being secure, we felt compelled to carry our valuables with us whenever we left the property. We raised these concerns with Booking.com, and the situation was eventually addressed. However, the host was difficult to deal with and was not particularly accommodating or responsive to reasonable concerns. Overall, the lack of cleanliness, security issues, and poor customer service made for a disappointing stay.

    Nothing Photos lied, do not trust this place! Is not clean and not worth the money you spend. One of the worse stays I've ever been.

    DO NOT STAY HERE!!! BLACK MOLD IN THE CEILING, WATER POURING FROM CEILING INTO BED. Absolutely wretched!!!

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    I booked this place 3 months before the visit. The room was ok, but there was black hair on the towel and sheet when i lifted the blanket. Also, there was dust and hair on the floor. Not sure if they cleaned it after the previous tenant. I stayed there until the last day, and then I was asked to move to another room because they expected new guests and needed my double room. Why are other guests more important than me?

    Kyoto Guesthouse exceeded all expectations, delivering an experience that seamlessly blended comfort, convenience, and autonomy. From the moment you stepped into your room, it was evident that the photographs had undersold the space. What appeared compact in pictures revealed itself to be remarkably spacious, offering ample room to stretch out and unwind. One of the highlights of your stay was the self-service aspect. From check-in to check-out, the guesthouse placed the power firmly in your hands. Clear and concise instructions were strategically placed throughout the premises, ensuring that every step of the process was intuitive and hassle-free. This autonomy allowed for a sense of freedom and flexibility, enhancing the overall experience. Moreover, the guesthouse's 24-hour accessibility provided peace of mind, especially for those planning nocturnal adventures. The assurance of being able to return at any hour without the fear of being locked out added an extra layer of convenience to your stay. Location-wise, the guesthouse proved to be strategically situated, offering proximity to both train and bus stations. This accessibility made exploring Kyoto's myriad attractions a breeze, allowing you to seamlessly navigate the city's enchanting streets and historic sites. The presence of a nearby Family Mart further added to the convenience, ensuring that essentials were always within reach. Beyond the practicalities, Kyoto Guesthouse also impressed with its attention to detail. From complimentary bathroom toiletries to a high-quality hairdryer, every amenity was thoughtfully provided, elevating the overall comfort of your stay. The commitment to cleanliness further underscored the guesthouse's dedication to providing a top-tier experience.

    Check in was easy and the staff were friendly. Beds were sizeable and comfortable, and shower facilities were good. The room was directly above a karaoke place, so it was quite loud late at night when trying to go to sleep.

    Owner was lovely, the room was clean and comfortable, the shower was great and the location was pretty good for the price ☺️

  • Engine customer Mar 2023

    unfortunately no good point the Google location is confusing. the room is not actually a room. looks like a detention facility in movies. the shower room is crazy. worst of all, the room had no good lock. the security was zero. the cleanliness was bad. the Karaoke shop underneath the room was absolutely noisy and you cannot even take a rest. Booking.com should not put these low quality places on the list.
