K's House Kyoto -Travelers Hostel

Very quiet area. (Very nice) The smoking area is near our room. The smell seeps through the door as someone who has sensitive nose it was not great. But other than that everything is perfect!!!

- super social hostel, everyone was very chatty and friendly - staff were very helpful and accommodating, gave me loads of recommendations and extra sheets when i was concerned about the lack of curtains - the place was very clean, the staff cleaned the bathroom, kitchen and rooms everyday - very close to kyoto station - lovely coffee spots close by - 7/11 close by - amazing nepalese place close by with great lunch deals - easy subway to the gion district and other areas - shared kitchen, hang out space and laundry room

The house was relatively clean, with the rooms and bathrooms being clean. It was more of an upkeep kept by the people staying there but was still kept relatively clean. The beds were comfy, with plenty of room in the space for people! The showers were clean with a great shower head and had soap, conditioner and shampoo provided. The heater did well at keeping the rooms warm. Got plenty of storage for even big bags, just bring a lock but you can put everything in there. The wifi was great throughout the place, and a big common space and kitchen fully kitted out with utensils for cooking and 3 fridges. It was ¥500 for wash and drying your laundry and you could get change down at the desk if needed, just get in there early or late as you then might have to wait for others. Overall staff were polite and there from 8:00am-9pm for any needs, you can get free adaptors and chargers etc. Overall would recommend for a decent and clean place.

First of all, all the employees there can speak decent English, and all of them are very friendly. I really like how they guide you through the check-in process and everything, and all the facilities provided by the hostel. They even got a dedicated shoe storage space and shoe dryer!!! I stayed in a 6-person mixed dorm, and each bed has 2 type-A plugs. The shower room is so clean and well-equipped. Body soap, hair shampoo, hair conditioner, and hair dryer are provided. Each floor has its own shower room, so everything is so good. On top of that, there is a common area on Level 2, and you can freely use any of the facilities (kitchen, fridge, cooking utensils, washing machine, etc.). Do note that you need to pay for the washing machine, but it's fine. They also provide slippers for all guests. The most caring part of the hostel is that there's Braille at the lift!!! I would 100% recommend this hostel and come back again in the future.

The hostel was very clean & modern. The kitchen was spacious and well designed. The terrace was cool & had a great view. I enjoyed the common area - it was comfortable and guests didn't have to sit on the floor like in other more 'traditional style' hostels in Japan.
