Kyoto Hostel Ryokan

bathrooms very clean Stuff super friendly and helpful nice atmosphere

room not very big for 4 people and advertised with common area and kitchenette, but unfortunately that was in the common area ground floor, the room only had 1 area for beds a good 10min walk from central station but nothing much around it, it's not in the main part of the city where all the fun is, but very quiet road stuff was not present at reception even though during front desk hours and even after email about time of arrival for check in - had to call and pay for international phone call, not happy about that.

The train station is within walking distance so it was easy to go sightseeing.

When I checked in they charged me an additional 200 yen per night (600). Said it was taxes that weren't covered by my booking. No mention of that on booking.com. My first night I was the only female in a room of 7 guys. The room smelled really bad the whole time I was there.
