Experience of the stay
I stayed with my family of four.
In central Kyoto, hotel costs can be quite high, however,
it was reasonable here, and we stayed in a room for four.
The day we visited, it was pouring rain, and we ended up soaked and bewildered.
I called the hotel and begged for an early check-in.
For dinner, we paid an additional fee and had Sukiyaki in our room.
It was very delicious.
In the morning, there was a light breakfast available, and we enjoyed tasty bread, juice, and coffee.
There is no parking at the hotel, but we found a nearby parking spot for less than 1000 yen for two days.
Overall, the response from the hotel staff was excellent.
After returning home, I realized I had left something behind, and when I called, they kindly checked my room again.
Experiences during the trip
I took a bus from Hankyu Arashiyama Station, which is right by the hotel, to Atragawa Temple.
I met a cute Jizo statue there.
From there, I walked to Adashi Jōnen Temple.
I also visited Daikaku-ji.
I walked around the pond for an additional fee but got caught in the rain, which was quite unfortunate.
On the second day, I moved to central Kyoto,
and with my AMEX card, I visited Kodaiji Temple, where I could enter for free.
I had some cold, chilled ame.
After that, I visited the Kyoto Photography Museum to see a photo exhibition,
and for lunch, I had Taiwanese cuisine in Kyoto.
I dined at 微風台南.
Afterwards, I stopped by Futaba in Demachiyanagi to buy manju as a souvenir
and returned home.
