교토 게스트하우스 호스텔 아야메

This place is lovely!!

The hostel was great it was just very inconvenient with the narrow stairs especially when getting up and down with big luggages and heavy stuff (though we received help from the host when we checked in) i fell down like twice LOL. But everything else was nice. If you’d like a break from all the chaos, this hostel definitely provided me and my friend peace and quiet.

The owner is very cool. I like the hotel right after arrival because the good smell.. The pillow and bed is so good that I asked for brand before leave. And the room itself is very enjoyable. You can see the culture and history behind while enjoy the modern facilities.

I loved staying here! It was my first time staying in a traditional setting in Japan and it was a great base for exploring Kyoto. Just a 5 min walk to the train station and bus station, thats all you really need. The room we booked was so spacious and lovely, it smells of tatami. The beds are also quite comfy. Only things that are not so perfect is the personal sink is tiny (but they have larger communal ones available. downstairs) and its location is by the main road so you hear traffic in the mornings. The staff are friendly as well and helped moved our luggage up the stairs. We also liked having a laundry machine available and we just dried our clothes by the terrace.

It's a wonderful and beautiful hostel where I spent some peaceful days. I feel truly enriched and hope to come back again.
