Great stay. The room was big and spacious for Japanese standards. The location was also quite good since it was 5 minutes from the nearest bus station and subway station. The surrounding area was also quite quiet. The staff was friendly, understanding, and helpful. The laundry coin machines were easy to use and located at the lobby. The bedroom was clean and comfortable too, and the hotel provided good pajamas and footwear for the room. The bathroom was divided into three different areas (toilet + mirror and common area + showering area with shower space and bathtub), which was very good. This was a great experience, and I would most likely stay here again if given the opportunity.
The view from the room was not that pretty.

Great location in/ near Gion in quiet neighborhood. Konbini nearby, multiple bus stops close by. Walking distance to several large temples. Large room with microwave, kettle and fridge. Comfortable bed , large for Japanese standard.
Cleaning only every 6 days included, for additional cleaning you pay 2,000 yen (approx €12 ) additional. We were only staying for 2 nights, but anything more than 3 nights without cleaning is not acceptable for me. This is not a budget hotel, so why? For luggage keeping we had to transfer to the (main) buikding about 400 m away. Fortunately a good English explanation paper available.

The hotel and accommodations were simple but very nice. Very clean and in quiet neighborhood. The location was excellent. A short walk and you are in a charming small covered street with a handful of shops and restaurants. If you walk another few blocks you could be in the older historic quarter that was packed with shops and restaurants. Easy walking distance to the Yasaka Shrine. Highly recommend.
No complaints. The property was as expected. The price was a little bit high (for us) but it was during the height of cherry blossoms. Nice clean and quiet neighborhood.

the room was decently big (we had a shoebox in tokyo so this was considered big), very clean and modern looking. there are two hotel legastas, this one is further from the station whereas the other is just across the street. the toilet is a separate area from the sink and the shower which i liked, more hygienic! i really loved this toilet. staff were very nice as well. definitely not a big chain type of amenities but you have everything you need here if you are just using the room to sleep, rest and shower.
5 min walk from the station, if you want to leave luggage with the hotel you have to walk to the other branch closer to the station

Location of the hotel was fantastic. It’s tucked away in a quiet residential area however only a minute away from the nearest station. Walkable distance to sanjo if you don’t want to take public transport. Great Chinese restaurant next door and a good supermarket for food options too.
Aircon was leaking a bit from time to time so I just put the bin underneath to stop the water from going into the carpet. Staff forgot to change my bin one day even though I left it outside for them to take. The room doesn’t get cleaned everyday, only once every seven days so if you are a messy person probably not the best option.

The room was nice, comfortable, clean. Location was great, no more than 5 min from the nearest train or bus station and the area felt very safe and quiet so I didn’t mind wandering back to the hotel late at night.
The only mildly frustrating thing was the location we stayed at was often unstaffed. When we wanted to forward our luggage or had any questions or requests for the staff, we almost always had to walk to their main location. Thankfully it was only a 3-5 min walk so it was only a mild annoyance. I would happily stay here again.

This place was lovely!!! For the price, you get a really great sized room! A view of Kyoto (if you’re on the front side of the building.. unsure of back side) and really friendly staff! There is a washing machine and dryer available for 300 yen. The room was clean and air conditioned. It’s well located by a subway station, and not too far to walk from busy areas! Would highly recommend!
Not the worst problem but we arrived at 12:30pm and sadly didn’t realise that the place is unattended between 12-3pm so we had to roll our suitcases over to the other hotel LEGASTA nearby.. not too far but just something to bear in mind!

Super convenient and quiet hotel. We got a nice room on the upper floor with an amazing view. The size of the room was amazing! We loved the shower room (even though we couldn’t manage to fill in the bathtub). Washing machines are available.
We needed to arrange for yamato transport for our luggage but it was a bit tricky as staff didn't speak any English (and we don't speak Japanese) so it took some time for us to understand that we needed to take our luggage to the main hotel (this is an annex) situated a few minutes away. This ended up being a happy inconvenience as at the main hotel there was a young woman who not only helped us to arrange the yamato transport but also recommended us 2 amazing spots for dinner and drinks which really made our night.

The room was very nice with everything you need for your stay! It was spacious even for three adults. The bathroom was very nice and the possibility to dry your clothes after washing them in the hotels laundry room was amazing! It was quite clean with a few dustbunnies here and there but overall very good! Definitely great value for the money! The location is just perfect! Walking distans to Yasaka Shrine, pontocho street and everything around there! Very pleased with the visit, highly recommend!
The beds were a bit hard but the pillow and duvet were amazing!

Good location in a quiet area, about 4 minutes waking from Higashiyama metro station or 13 minutes walking from Sanjo station. It's about a 15 minute walk from Yasaka-jinja and Gion. Good-sized room with private bathroom including a bathtub with controls (with usage explained in information booklet). The person at reception when I checked in even spoke Spanish.
Minor detail: I chose the "double" instead of "twin" room option: the mattress was actually two single mattresses put together, but it was comfortable enough. Otherwise, all great!
