I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which is located in a peaceful neighborhood that's very close to the lively Fushimi-Inari shrine. The rooms were comfortable and had a modern touch. However, I found the dining options a bit limited, especially for breakfast. The amenities were decent, but not all were included in the price, which felt a little off for the overall value offered.
