Actually a good location for in/out of town - a connection to make for the train station but from the hostel to train station is about 30mins. Clean and well kept, would recommend to friends.

3 August 2008
Very friendly and helpful staff members, was a little bit of the way out of central Kyoto but Kyoto was easily accessed by subway and train, so not a major. It gave us a all a real taste for the real Japan and the way that Japanese actually live. Overall first class and I would highly recommend.

The hostel is in a quite area and we thought it was a bit out of town. We stayed for 2 nights and went to another hostel closer to town. If you prefer a quite and relaxing stay, this is the hostel for you but if you prefer a bit of a night life, recommend chosing a hostel closer to town. The hostel was very clean.

All the facilities were there and it was not very busy so had the hostel to ourselves, would be lonely if you were travelling alone and the owners can be a tad overbearing. The hostel was very clean though.

Staff was very friendly and it was a quiet place for the night. It is a very small hostel so you feel familar very soon.
14 April 2008
Excellent location if you want a quiet atmosphere and don't care about being social. Excellent if you want to be immersed in local Japanese culture.
