The room was wonderful, bed was clean ans comfortable, and i loved the shower/bath in its own room. Makes for a nice spa like evening after walking 30k steps. 5 minutes away from kyoto station and lots to see and do in the surrounding area. They also have a hotel onsen for patrons. I will come back on my next trip to Kyoto.
