I loved the style of the hostel, it felt all very authentic Japanese, from the outside to the common area. Clean rooms and big beds + fantastic location. The only thing I would add is a real kitchen. But food is fantastic in Kyoto and I enjoyed eating outside.

Nice hostel with perfect location and a nice common zone to use the internet. It would be great if it had breakfast (free or paid). There is a supermarket 50m away so it is not a big problem. They do offer coffee and a vending machine.

Overall, this is a great hostel, in a good location within the city. The hostel does not have any food or drink available, there's a kitchenette and fridge available. The shared bathroom space and showers are very clean. The bunk rooms are also very clean and well kept with lock boxes in each bunk. The shared space is very comfortable and open, and many guests sit in this space and talk during the evenings. The staff were very nice and are available 24/7 if needed. Overall, the hostel is very quiet, and I had an excellent experience staying here.

If you looking for a hostel in Gion but quite area and has walking distance to metro station, then this is a perfect option. The location is 400m from the train and bus station, its also kind a in the middle of Nishiki Market and Gion, so make ur move easier. The room is so comfy, the bathroom also super nice. The service is great. We looove the living room, its so convenient with enough seats. Also they have washing machine, big fridge and kitchen. One more thing, they also rent Yukata and bicycle with very good price. So, i can say that this is the best budget hostel in quite area in Kyoto.

Beautiful place to stay! Has a warm and charming atmosphere. This hostel will hold a special place in my heart. Very clean! It was one of the cleanest places I have stayed in. The futons were so comfortable and had a pleasant sleep. As well as because the neighbor surrounding the place is quiet. Great area to walk around in. Minutes away from several historical sites and fantastic eateries. If you'll be visiting Gion, this is the place to stay! Right around the corner from bars and shops. I was sad to leave this place when it came to check out. Will make sure to be stopping by here again in the future.
