HOTEL TAVINOS Kyoto

Location of the hotel was a short walk over the bridge to the underground Station. Supermarket and bike hire over the road. The room were dark due black walls. Your beds were two mattress put down on a large piece of wood and bed sheets would come loose and mattress can move. The storage under the bed was great tho The staff were very helpful and greeted you everytime you enter level 3 area.

The location is ideally good, 10mins walking distance to Shijo (the famous shoppingstreet all the way down to Yasaka Shrine). The hotel interior design looks dull and black, walls are painted/covered w/ black wallpaper. If you are quite not comfortable with dull environment, better select the other hotel. I am moderate with the environment as I switched side of the bed during my 2nd night, as I dint have a good sleep on my first night where the bed facing to the door directly. Slept quite well for the rest of the 2 nights later. Hotel provided free mini bun for breakfast until 10:30am. Amenities r provided, very convenient and handful. It is a Self-check in system in TAVINOS, and there are 2 kiosks available for you to do so. Please note that, there is a tax surcharge during check-in. There are 2-3 bus stops right in front of the hotel. One of my to go is city bus 80/205. Convenient & efficient bus schedule. Would come back again if there's another time travelling in Kyoto again (cause is budget friendly)

The location was great as it has access to trains and busses nearby to use. Very close to shopping areas as well.

Very clean and comfortable. Appreciated the coin laundry and complementary coffee and tea. Great location as well.
