I liked the size of the room, cleanliness, shower and tub action, big bed, washing machine, kitchen. Had a fun time. I would stay there again if I'm ever in the city again.
Arrival was great. We had a great experience . Hit water was broken and they kindly change us room . No drinking water at rooms for free so you have to prepare . Overall great experience.
the property is tucked in a residential area about 2 blocks from kyoto castle
has a bit of a hostel feel but had everything we needed just a little old looking
great stay either way
Perfect sized room for 2-3 people. Very comfortable and felt like a little apartment with all the amenities. The shower and tub combo was perfect to soak our sore amd tired bones.
this is a great property and well located. The only problem was the requirement to go to one place for the check in and the hotel is in a different location.
This is my first time in Japan and Im definitely coming back and staying at Stay Sakura. The staff is so friendly and the place is so comfortable and clean. I love the location. 10 our of 10 for sure!

Very nice for the price, only downsides are that the rooms are a bit cramped and there’s no dryer
Not too bad, very clean and the location is great! The room was very small and a little bit uncomfortable though. There was no space to put the suitcases and moving around the room was difficult because of the narrow space. I wouldn't recommend it for a long stay, but for a couple of days it's nice.
Apartment in a quiet area, close to station and convenient store. Comfortable beds with the exception of the sofa bed which as very uncomfortable. Mini fridge was a plus. Unit was very tight for three even for Japan standards. No space for luggage. Carpet was stained throughout the unit. Walls had pen marks. Overall okay.
Close to restaurants, convenience stores & subway stations. Big spacious room with couches, fridge, microwave, cooking utensils & washing machine. Good size bathroom & strong shower.
They charge you for all the little extras in the room (water, tea & coffee etc) if you use it, so bring your own. They do leave you detergent for 2 washes tho. You need to empty your own bins.
The foyer area stank like insect repellent but the room was fine.

A cold water morning
No hot water the first morning. There’s a button panel in the kitchen you were supposed to push to start the heater. No signage, no explanation. How are you supposed to know that? Also, Taxi drivers had difficulty finding the hotel, even with their card map

It’s pretty far away from subway station. Went as a family trip with stroller and kids it was at least a 10-15 minute walk to closest station. Staff don’t speak English so be sure to have translation app ready. They don’t make sure bed or clean the rooms on a daily and will charge you a fee if you need anything extra. The beds were comfy and it’s nice to have a laundry machine just inside your suit, however no dryer so make sure you time air drying. There’s a mini kitchen so if you’re looking to stay awhile this is a great hotel if you don’t mind the walk. Family mart and 7/11 just 3-5 mins walk away.
