They should keep the air conditioning on or improve the system since it broke once while I was staying and it takes a while to cool the rooms. Pillows should be replaced since there’s no comfort.

Fantastic property at perfect location
We stayed 5 nights here. Location excellent next to the main railway station, walking distance to many of the impressive sights of Kyoto. Condition immaculate, likewise any other APA hotels, plenty, and I mean it, plenty of free amenities. The staff super friendly, polite and well educated (that's hard to find the opposite in Japan anyway). Extremely helpful and so used to people arriving before check-in time that they have an excellent system to keep your luggage until you return and have a room, and impressively secure too. Nice comfy beds, generally larger than the Japanese standard for a double. But of course being Japan, size matters. Bedrooms are quite small, not to mention the bathroom. Nevertheless I've been to many APA in this trip and a previous one some years back, all are the same, and so are other hotel brands, so this is not a downside at all, it is the fact. The only downside at this property is the breakfast. Yes, I can imagine for a Japanese national must be great, cooked from fresh in the moment, however for an occidental person... we could not eat that in the morning. We missed at least some toasts and marmalade. Only the coffee/tea and juice was there for us to be honest. In any case, meters away you have a 7 Eleven, McDonalds and more where you can get some sandwiches and eat in the hotel's restaurant with the coffee and juice they provide, easy. So do not pay extra for the breakfast, it will be useless and a waste of money.
