A-yado Gion in Montreal, Japani

This hostel is very well located if you want to hang out in the evenings (the buses in Kyoto stop around 22:00, so if you want to hit some bars, you'll probably want to stay near Gion) but a bit far from the train station (about 20-30min bus) , which makes it a bit less easy to explore the city. Very clean, and a helpful staff, but no cooking facilities.

Right, our hostel is we ll located! there is the nearest bus stop and station for 10 minutes by walking. And the major station, "Kyoto Sta." is a little bit far by bus. Cleaness and helpfull staff is our great pride! Thank you for the comment!!

A-Yoda was very clean and the staff was super friendly. They let me borrow an iPhone charger for two days since I left mine back in Tokyo. I really liked that they had snacks and drinks for purchase in the common room. It made meeting other backpackers over a cheap beer very easy. My only complaint was my snoring coughing overweight French bunk-mate who slept in his underwear. What can you do, though? The location is perfect for hitting the Gion nightlife and very easy to get around the city.

An iPhone charger is really important, since we all the time use iPhone. We have to let electricity go into that! The common room is also important, since we cannot live without a good meeting! Sorry for another thing... Thank you for the comment!!

eveything is good it's just lack of a kicthen.

Sorry. We don't have a kitchen. It's a warm place in the heart of a home. Yes, we are like a warm home, we don't have a kitchen, though. Someday we will improve it, if we have the chance! Thank you for the comment!

I love this hostel. It was in a great section of town. We were able to walk to multiple temples (and shopping) easily. The staff is wonderful. They're very friendly and helpful. If you need to know how to get anywhere they're always ready with a map and directions. They also take their cleaning very seriously. This was the cleanest hostel I've ever been in. I thought the beds were very comfortable. Every room is a dorm room, but each bed has curtains attached for privacy. Best hostel in Kyoto

Everything was really fine, only my matress seemed to be a little bit old as it was too soft in the middle.
