See review for accurate building address
DO NOT GO TO THE ADDRESS LISTED ON HOTELS.COM. Go straight to this address to check in: 542 wakamiya-cho; this will take you to the check in office, and they will tell you where to go for your room which is about a block and a half away. This hotel is a solid 3.5. The adage "you get what you pay for" applies here. My room was upstairs and the stairs were very narrow and steep; lugging one small suitcase up was perilous. The bathrooms are shared but there are three toilets for the 4(?) rooms in the building. There is a shower stall and a soaking tub. The soaking tub would be nice if there were English instructions on using the tankless water heater. This is an old style building so gives you an "authentic" experience for your stay in Kyoto, but in exchange lacks many of the amenities that comes with a standard hotel. There was a small kitchenette though so that is a point in its favor. Check in and check out, once I was provided with the correct address, was pretty simple and easy. I only stayed here one night and it was comfortable for that night, but any longer may be a challenge.

ゆっくり寝れましたがエアコンの音やドライヤーの音結構大きくてびっくりしました。人の話し声や階段の上り下りの軋む音も凄く聞こえるのでそういうのが気になる人は違う所を行かれるといいと思います。そういうのを気にせず畳部屋が好きな方は過ごせると思います。6.5畳くらいはありました。

Bonne localisation, très central. Accès à une cuisine complètement équipée. Par contre, le futon était très mince, impossible de dormir sur le côté. Aussi, on entend tout ce qui se passe dehors et ailleurs dans le hostel. Très mauvaise insonorisation. La cuisine et les salles de bain ne sont pas chauffées, elles sont directement dehors.

昔ながらの家なので人の話声やドアの開閉音などが聞こえましたが、他のお客さんも気を付けていたのもあってか、レビューほど騒がしくはなかったです。響くのでドライヤーなどを使う時は気を遣いました。古き良き京都の町屋に宿泊できていい体験になりました。

Small room. Long check in process
Check in needs improvement, the reception was not onsite and you have to walk 5 minutes to it, but took us 15 mins to find it, the actual checkin process was really long as well and took 10 mins. The accommodation was okay, theres only one toilet and most of the times we have to wait really long before we can use it, the room was so small

방에 들어간 순간 우리 아들은 귀신이 나올것 같이 무섭다 하면서 샤워도 하지않고 손발만씻었다 취소할려고도 하였으나 밤늦게 도착했기에 어쩔수없이 잤다 방은 여기저기 구멍이 나있었고 문은 닫히지않아 문사이로 찬바람이들어오고 정말 최악인 여행이었다 게다가 여러개의 게스트 하우스를 운영하는 사장과 직원은 대단히 불친절했다 또 사진과 다르게 타올은 돈을 내고 사야만 했다 완전히 사기당했다 친절한 일본인이 아니라 불친절한 사기꾼인 일본인의 인상을 가지고 돌아왔다

어미니티를 모두 구입해야함. 가격에 비해 너무 많은 옵션을 따로 구매해야함
인테리어나 모든 면에서 꼭 경험하면 좋은 교토의 호텔이지만 비용에 비해 옵션이 너무 복잡하다.

伝統的な建物での宿泊のついて
ホテルに慣れている人にとっては音に戸惑うと思います。 構造上人が移動するたびに音が発生し、その音によって目が覚めたり眠れなかったりします。 耳栓の貸し出しはありますが神経質な方は厳しい環境かと。 またトイレとお風呂も共用のためタイミングによっては使えない状態が続きますが、幸い近くに銭湯があるため、お風呂は銭湯(430円)で済ませてもいいかと。 立地は申し分ないです。 音が気にならない方であればおススメします。

Don’t stay in room K24!
Have stayed in ryokans our whole trip and this one was the absolute worst. The place itself is fine (same as most of the other typical cheap ryokans) and the staff are lovely and very friendly, however the room we were staying in was terrible. Every time someone moved in the room above us there were terrible squeaks in their floorboards (our ceiling) which were loud enough to wake you and give you a headache. Also the wall to the outside street was literally paper so every car, bike and person going past could be heard. This room was very loud and very distracting. I can usually handle some noise and light during the night but this was ridiculous. I’m glad we only stayed here for one night!
Nicole, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had a really lovely stay at Koto an, the staff and home was lovely. The only down fall was really loud guests arriving at 3:30am on our second night who continued to talk and move around upstairs for another hour into the early morning. The house is very old so the floors creek a lot. I would definitely stay again but would ask the home stay to consider having check in time window boxes as it was really unpleseant to be woken at such an early hour and for the guests to be able to continue loud conversations as they prepared for sleep. Thank you for having us.
