    pathetic breakfast
    tiny room

    the location is decent, but the single room feels more like a closet than anything else. i guess i expected a bit more for my 5-night stay, like maybe a complimentary upgrade or fresh slippers instead of single-use junk. the breakfast options were just pathetic, no real choices. overall, very disappointing indeed.

    inconvenient laundry

    I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at The Pocket Hotel Kyoto Karasuma Gojo. The cleanliness throughout was remarkable. the shared bathrooms felt well-maintained and luxurious. Plus, having a subway station right outside made exploring Kyoto so convenient. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive.

    Limited laundry facilities.

    clean showers
    noisy neighbors
    firm futons

    I appreciated the clean, well-maintained shared showers.

    During my stay, I was frustrated by the limited ability to open windows in the room, which felt very claustrophobic. Although the shared facilities were clean, I encountered some noisy neighbors, leading to an uncomfortable night. The futons were much firmer than I expected, making it hard to get a good night's sleep.

    It was a great match for my trip in Kyoto at a reasonable price. The staff helped me find my way around after I got a little lost. Make sure to double-check the location on Google Maps before arriving to avoid any mix-ups.

    accessibility issue
    luggage difficulty

    The Pocket Hotel Kyoto Karasuma Gojo offers clean shared showers and a very comfortable futon. The air conditioning worked perfectly, and the shared facility was well-maintained. Being close to public transport was super convenient for my daily adventures.

    Access to the nearest station could be challenging with heavy luggage.

    clean hotel
    super comfy futon
    great air conditioning
    shared bathroom
    small room

    Super clean hotel and the futon was super comfy. I was in a Twin Room with a shared bathroom, and everything felt fresh and well thought out. The air conditioning worked great, and I loved having easy access to shared showers. It felt more like a cozy hostel than a traditional hotel, which I kinda liked!

    The shared shower rooms were super clean and pleasant. I loved the comfortable futon. However, I'd have preferred a way to fill my water bottle without asking.
