通学目的の滞在

着いてすぐ荷物を預けたく、電話対応時間9時〜と書いてあったが、9時を過ぎても電話に出る人がいなく、昼頃やっと電話が繋がった。その後早めにチェックインできたのはありがたかったが、連絡が繋がらないと不安になるので、改善した方が良いと思う。 なぜか滞在し終わって1週間遅れで、ホステルからチェックイン方法の連絡が届いた。 価格はとてもリーズナブルで、チェックイン以外はトラブルはなかったが、 二階のハンドソープがずっと切れてた。

施設とスタッフさんは良いです。

ただ、深夜に荷物の整理のために平気でする輩がいたのでうるさかったです。 ベッド蹴ったら大人しくなりましたが 安い場所に泊まるとこんなマナーのない輩がいてるのは仕方がないのかも知れません。

京都っぽい和風の宿泊施設

従業員は外国の方でしたが日本語できちんと意思疎通もでき、問題ありませんでした。 部屋も清潔で良かったと思います。 一点、洗濯物を乾かす場所の日当たりが悪かったので、翌日も衣類が乾ききりませんでした。 気にされない方は大丈夫と思いますがそこだけ残念でした。

goed verblijf

De dorm was prima,douche faciliteiten waren ook prima. Beneden was er een Japans café wat voor veel sfeer zorgt. Locatie was opzich ook prima, 10 minuten lopen naar het metro station, 5 minuten naar een grote supermarkt. Prima verblijf!
