    The breakfast at the hotel was excellent and offered a great variety of tasty options to start the day. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and accommodating, making sure that all my needs were taken care of during my stay. The hotel's location was fantastic, with easy access to key attractions in the city and convenient transportation options.

    The cooking facilities at the hotel were quite limited, which made it difficult for me to prepare my own meals. Additionally, I found that the rooms were a bit open plan, lacking privacy and a more cozy atmosphere.

    I got such great value for my money at this awesome guesthouse! The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and the futon was surprisingly comfortable. The location was perfect, close to attractions but still quiet. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making me feel right at home.

    The morning meal could use a little improvement.

    We had an amazing stay at Gojo Guest House! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They even went out of their way to recommend local cafes and walk us through the late-night entry process. The location was excellent, with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The tatami room we stayed in was cozy and comfortable, providing a unique Japanese experience. Despite being an old building, the air conditioning worked great and the rooms had ample space. We also enjoyed the convenience of the on-site cafe, serving delicious breakfast and drinks. I highly recommend Gojo Guest House for its great value, convenient location, and friendly staff.

    gojo guest house exceeded my expectations during my one night stay in kyoto. the traditional japanese house had a special atmosphere and the onsite cafe with friendly staff added to its charm. the map provided introduced me to a lovely coffee shop i otherwise would have never found.

    The guesthouse is in a great part of town, making it convenient for visiting tourist spots and exploring the city. It is close to bus stops and the subway line, making it easy to get around. The rooms are comfortable and the staff is friendly and helpful. The common area downstairs is a great place to relax and the café serves delicious breakfast. Guests can also enjoy the traditional Japanese-style rooms and the experience of staying in a 100-year-old building.

    The bathrooms are a bit far from the rooms, which can be a bit inconvenient at times.
