Great location and very clean - we recommend it!
Excellent location, just a few minutes walk from subway, plenty of restaurants, great shopping, shrines and other tourist sights. The check-in process is on-line with a remote video-linked agent available to answer questions and confirm room codes etc. When we needed in-person assistance, somebody came to us very quickly. The property was very clean, and although quite small, was just big enough for our family of 4, for 4 nights. Only negatives were; the washing machine had only Japanese instructions, so we needed to ask for a member of staff to come and explain. Even then, we had questions once we started using it, so it needed more than one training visit! Also the spa facility, while good, is too expensive when you consider most other places don't charge. It would also benefit from more relaxation loungers, there was only one when we used it. We would definitely recommend this place and hope to return one day!

Excellent hotel!!
I took my family of 5 for a family vacation. This was a perfect location because it was close enough to all of the attraction the city has to offer, but it was just far enough where we were able to get a nice rest after a long day of touring the beautiful country. I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel, as it was a mini apartment where anything and everything was within a short walk, including grocery stores, coffee shops, subway station, and much more. It was nice and clean and my entire family truly enjoyed the place. My entire family fit comfortably and having the mini kitchennete was fantastic! We had a wonderful experience.

This is a hidden jewel. The condition of my room Is just outstanding - clean and exceed exception. Together with my two kids, we had plenty of space to relax. Only 5kin walk to the junction. Plenty of places for food. Very central to many must sees in Kyoto. I strongly recommend Minn Sanjo particularly if you are travel with your family.

This is a new Apartment Building . From the use of new concrete materials for walls ,to V shaped plastic wall joints (no caulking used) in the bathroom) the finishes are the work of artistian. You can imagine the good feeling of comfort because everything including furniture, bed and bedding is new. I wonder if I am able to live here again next time.

The apartment, lobby and entire place was amazing. Our room was great except all the linen and pillows. I don’t have the exact words to describe what we could smell, but it would be a mix of dead cat, feces, and sweat. We thoroughly enjoyed the place except when it was time to sleep. Would we stay here again, probably not… the smell was too bad.

Hope construction outside ends soob
There was construction outside and the walls were paper thin. Upon arrival people were working and on conference calls so it was very loud and trying to check in via video was very tough. This is the perfect location for sites and room for family.

Most uncomfortable night sleep I’ve ever had
The futon mattress was the thinnest and most uncomfortable we had during our 3 week trip in Japan. I communicated that and requested either a thicket or perhaps extra ones so we cousin double up. They said “no”. We had absolutely miserable night sleep. Terrible. Such an easy fix to just get thicker ones. Or extra ones. We would have paid for them. Instead it was just terrible. I would never stay here or anywhere that offered these terrible beds ever again
