移動に便利で、静かな街並みにあるナイスな宿でした。

連休中の2泊滞在しました。宿は綺麗で、ロケーションは最高です。自家用車で行ったので、駐車場に停められることを優先して決めました。宿の近くにはコインパーキングがたくさんありますし、朝7時までに出庫するとお得な値段で停められてラッキーでした。また、居酒屋がすぐ隣にあるので、地元の人の会話を聞きながら、お得な値段で楽しめました。(小さな店なので予約がお勧めです。)

朝食付きのプランにしましたが、宿の中での飲食ではなく、歩いてすぐの喫茶店を使う形式でした。ところがこの喫茶店の開店が10時なので、朝早くから目一杯京都各地へ行く予定だった我々には使いづらい物でした。この点は注意が必要です。
