Shizuya Kyoto

Stafnya, baik pria maupun wanita, sangat ramah. Kamarnya agak kecil, tapi sangat nyaman. Kekurangannya adalah hanya ada satu kamar mandi, jadi harus antre untuk mandi. Tempat tidurnya kasur, jadi kalau Anda tidak terbiasa dengan tempat tidur yang keras, saya sarankan untuk tidak menginap di sini.

Terima kasih atas perhatian dan layanannya yang penuh perhatian, dan karena telah mengizinkan saya mencoba takoyaki Anda, yang sungguh fantastis. Rasanya seperti di rumah sendiri. Saya mungkin tidak akan bisa mengucapkan selamat tinggal lusa, tetapi hari ini saya ingin menyampaikan rasa terima kasih dan rasa hormat saya. Saya pasti akan kembali suatu hari nanti. Terima kasih atas perhatian Anda.

One may struggke to find the entrance since it is "hidden" between 2 buildings, but the inside buildings (both, one is exclusive for women and the other is mixed) is carefully kept. The lounge has big tables with sockets to charge your devices. Also, access to a pseudo-kitchen is provided, where you can prepare instant coffee, tea,... The staff will kindly break down to you everything you need to know about your room and provide you a code to enter your room.

Cozy, quiet hostel with modern design. Everything was organized and super clean. Friendly and kind staff. Free tea, coffee, miso soup. Definitely would come back.

I found this kind of accommodation rather often in Japan recently. Compact and it reminds me of rubik cube somehow.  The wall is very thin and it is not soundproof. It is very noisy because of other guests. Usually people don't pay attention to the sound when you open/close the doors or lock/unlock the keys. Each time other guests come back or go out, you will have to hear the noise. Therefore, ear plugs are provided. :D Main building - Only female accepted  There is only 1 bathroom but it is big (Typical Japanese bathroom)  3 toilets Smaller Pantry Washing machine Relaxing area in front of reception Annex 3 bathrooms (One of them is huge) Kitchen  Public space Laundry machine Public space can't be used during cleaning time. Although Google Map shows the correct location, the entrance is very difficult to spot as the sign / logo is very small.T he door of the entrance looks like it is locked but just slide the door if it is inside of their business hours. It is not locked.  If you usually stay in a hostel, you should consider Shizuya hotel, you can keep your privacy even when you choose a dorm.  It is very modern and clean. I stayed in a single room but shower and toilet are all shared. All amenities are provided in the shower space but I found a hair dryer in the room I stayed in, too. Other than the hair dryer, there are so many things equipped in the room like a small fan, hangers, air cleaner (?). I actually didn't check what they were but I found some small electric devices in the closet.  Linen is the only amenity you can get. You can rent bath towel, face towel and toothbrush (all JPY100 each) You can't eat anything in the room. If you get something to eat, you have to eat it in the public space in the annex/main building. If it is annex, you can use the kitchen too.  Microwaves, coffee machines, plates, cups, instant miso soup ... they actually have everything. Public space in front of the reception (Main building) is just chilling out space but eating is allowed. Location is pretty good.  I walked from Kyoto JR station as I didn't have a suitcase with me. If you don't get lost, it should be about 10-15 minutes walking. Once you get to the hotel, it is still walking distance to Gion.  There are convenience stores nearby (Family Mart and 7-eleven) Reception isn't 24 hours. (0900 - 1900) If you have to check in outside of their business hours, you should let them know in advance.  They accept luggage before check in/after check out

蛇口をひねると全て地下水、塩素との入っていないお水、冷蔵庫にいつも冷えてて美味しい。 お部屋はとても狭くて隠れ家な感じだけど寝に帰るだけなので全然気にならない、なんだか凄く良いニオイがします。
