I stayed for a couple of nights (October 2015) in the male dorm on the first floor. The bunks were the best I have ever stayed in, spotlessly clean, working individual power sockets and reading light, I felt very at home. There's probably about 10-14 bunks in the male dorm, the females I don't know. Both male and female dorms basically in same room just with a thin partition wall (does not reach ceiling) and password access door. I think there were another 2-3 people in my dorm, very very quiet. Great sleep.

There's a small individual locker in the room you can use but passport and a few small electronics is all it will hold, will not take a day pack of anything like that ( or a laptop). I left some of my stuff in my bunk, no issues. Also a fridge at bottom of dorm you can use.

The only person on reception when I arrived was an elderly Japanese lady, we couldn't communicate a word but she was very nice and I got a good feel on arrival. Plan on getting any travel/transport/sightseeing info elsewhere if you don't speak Japanese (main train station had an unbelievably comprehensive tourist information). 

The common area had a couple of washing machines and dryers - coin operated. The common area had a computer or two but it is a tiny area 4-5 people and its bunged. I ended up sitting in the little restaurant bit just of reception as common room is a bit naff.  I wasn't sure if you were meant to or not but it was only me and the elderly lady so not exactly busy. No one seemed to mind.

There are two very, very nice showers on 1st floor, for me I had access whenever I wanted due to low occupancy but with a full dorm you may wait a bit.

I stayed mid week and wanted to extend my stay into the weekend, there was no chance, booked solid. The lack of people mid week had given me a false sense of security. Seems it gets busy busy in weekends, not a shocker I guess. If you think you'll stay into/over the weekend book it up as soon as. 

There are good areas for food within walking distance, a metro station 5-10 mins walk away (just check route, most likely you will need to change). The closest bus stop I could get coming out of town was on the other side of the river, then it's a nice 10-15 minute walk. I liked this as it gave me the opportunity to grab a beer in some of the more lively hostels nearby on the way back in the evening.

I would stay here again for sure.

Clean comfortable dorm. Good location. Minimum english.

I stayed for 4 nights during new years and had a lovely stay at Kinta. The street it's located on is quite pretty and I enjoyed some morning walks in the area and by the river. The inside has a very Japanese aesthetic in that the walls have no paintings and no clutter. I would recommend this guest house. Easy access to the Gion district.

Pretty street, calm guest house

This hostel is located in the prettiest area of Kyoto! 
The small streets with almost no cars, every house with delicate wooden doors and windows, an occasional geisha passing through, the lanterns lit at night.. It is wonderful! 

There are convenience stores and restaurants a 5 min walk away and the Gion area for bars and restaurants is also walkable from here, 15 min. 
The riverside is also beautiful to walk at sunset. 

The staff doesnt speak english but we understood each other. 
There is a kitchen +common area (where you can eat) +washing machine you can use. 

The beds in the dorms are really big and spacious, with a curtain each for your privacy, plus power plug and night light. 

Wifi works better at the Ground floor, although it also works at the dorm. 

There is just one toilet and 2 showers for the 14bed dorm (7 male+7female), but they were always free when i wanted to go. 
There is also a small fridge in the dorm and lockers. As said in other reviews, it is the same room for the female and male dorms, there is just a paper-thin wall and a door with lock in the middle separating them. 

We had a very pleasant stay, maybe we will be back! 

Quiet pretty hostel

I stayed here for three nights. Bunks are spacious, location is great and the place is very clean. At nearly 6 foot (182cm) I was expecting to feel cramped but this was not the case. Shower facilities are private, there are small lockers for valuables and laundry facilities. The only thing missing is wifi.
I wouldn't hesitate staying here again and even for a longer period, great value!

A Great Little Hostel

This is one of the cleanest hostels I have been in and the bathrooms were definitely above average 
The wifi didn't work in the bedrooms
The location is great 10/10
The owner is not overly helpful or friendly, or easy to find at times... 
If you are an independent person happy to look after yourself and need a place to stay,  it's great 
If you have any particular requirements or aren't able to speak any japanese or hail your own cab etc etc not for you as this lady cares little for you, but oddly it's kind of part of the kyoto old school charm
