JP INN Kyoto Ekimae Izutsucho

The room feels like a mini small apartment very small) Have kitchenette and washing machine. The bed can be folded, so there is room for a small table to eat. Also have small nice balcony. The hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood and only 15 minutes walk from the main train station. Close to bus stop (minutes aprox) for other site seeing in the city. They have all the amenities needed for staying. Really recommend, great value for money.

I love how complete the facilities are. You got a kitchen, toaster oven, microwave, fridge, even a washing machine. It is such a game changer. The size is pretty compact but since we came with backpacks, we have no issue with the room size. I love the fact that we could do our laundy conveniently. There are also some convenience stores nearby if you need to stock some foods. There's a vending machine just outside the building. I also love that the building is in the residence area, so it is pretty quiet.

I stayed for 14 days in this cute little apartment, located less than a 10-minute walk from Kyoto Station. I chose an apartment with a small kitchen, on the 4th floor, which also had a terrace with a beautiful view of the city and the surrounding mountains. The kitchen was well-equipped, having everything we needed to prepare a great breakfast: pans, utensils, an induction stove, a hood, a mini electric oven where we cooked pizza and hot sandwiches, as well as a microwave. The host provided us with free oil and spices, which was a nice touch. The bathroom was stocked with shampoo, shower gel, and conditioner, all offered for free. The apartment was clean and had a washing machine, with laundry detergent provided by the host. Although room service is not offered, it wasn't a problem since we could request a Dyson vacuum for free to clean up. We also requested new linens, which were provided immediately, and we changed them ourselves. The beds were very comfortable, as were the pillows. The check-in process was extremely simple, and the person at the reception was very kind. We recommend this accommodation to everyone, as we have nothing but praise for the setup, cleanliness, and location of this apartment!

Despite parking issue due to the property being located in a narrow street, the JP INN Kyoto Ekimae Izutsucho was clean, well maintained and featured all the items both solo and group travelers would need for a stay.

So amazing I extended my stay. Wonderful location walking distance from Kyoto Station - which was my preference for getting around with ease. I loved that there's a washer in the unit. They do not do daily cleaning during your stay (which was common throughout Japan) but provided all the supplies at the front desk also cleaning supplies including vacuum. The bed was very comfortable and bathroom facilities excellent.
