Small basic room that had everything you need and still enough space for the luggage of two.

Location is close to public transportation and has plenty of convenience stores around. Only thing that might be worth mentioning here is that there where a few homeless or drunk people in that area. Never felt unsafe or got spoken to though. But might be of interest to others.

The property is really clean and well-maintained. You can also see that the facility is new. It is also pretty accessible with multiple stations in the vicinity. Definitely a place to recommend for solo travelers.

The hallways at the floor/s above do not have heater so it’s pretty cold when you go out of your room and go to toilet from time to time.

This place is great for an affordable option for travelers visiting Osaka. It is located 6 minutes away (on foot) from the metro and JR stations. Tsutenkaku is 15 minute walk away. The room was clean. The double room we got was relatively spacious. The common bathrooms and shower rooms were okay. There is a coin operated washer and a dryer in each shower room, and washing detergent is already provided. Overall, I would say it's a great pick for a budget stay in Osaka, which you can use to explore the area.

The shower room wasn't the cleanest. The drains in bathroom sinks were a bit slow. There was a bit of traffic in the shower room, and there was a small queue to the washer and dryer, so it might not be enough for the amount of people staying at the hotel. There was a bit of noise coming from the area outside of the hotel.

I loved the room we got! This really felt like a hotel, in comparison to some of the guest houses / hostel-esque places we stayed in. I loved that it had a window, and it was so comfy! It was such a nice way to round out my Japan trip :) It is also close to anything in Osaka!

Upon arrival, we were locked out of our hotel because the email confirmation that we received upon booking gave us the wrong code to the hotel, and when we contacted support they spoke ZERO English. This wasn't a huge problem, because Japanese was my second major in college. Although, this would have been really disastrous had this been any other country. Also, the location is a bit grimy. Not much of an issue if you are planning to just use this hotel as a home base! It was a real treat in comparison to some of the hotels we stayed in. I only rate this a 9 because I have an affinity to somewhere I stayed in Ayase!

Everything met or exceeded my expectations. Room was small, but a little larger than expected so that was a bonus. The beds were well designed with luggage storage at the end. The bedheads had USB and 100v charging ports. There was a small fridge that added to the comfort. The hotel is thoughtfully designed and was generally very clean and tidy, however some of the shared bathroom facilities could do with more regular wipe ups during the day (or provide a cloth for guests to do so). The linen was also very clean and comfortable. The area wear the hotel is situated is very close to a subway and JR station, and only a km or two to walk to more interesting areas. There are 24 hr convenience stores nearby. While Nisihinari as an area is not that appealing due to the many alcoholics that spend their days drinking in the street and small bars, they are mostly harmless and don't bother the tourists at all. Though viewed negatively by Japanese standards, the area is still safer than most Western cities I can think of.

My only real future concern is the mattress used. Despite being a new hotel, the mattresses are already sagging to the point that they bottom out if you sit on the edge. While comfort is adequate for now, I feel they may need to be replaced in the next 12 months to continue to remain comfortable for quests with heavier western body types.

Location, simplicity

Great location for trains and subway for exploring Osaka .The shared shower room was spotless and ample products were supplied. There are male and female toilets on each floor. The washing machine and dryer were great too.

I arrived very tired and realized that I had to supply more details to confirm my booking. Trying to do this in the rain was annoying. I couldn't get in as you need to add a hash sign after the code supplied. Luckily a passing man helped me and all was then ok . Maybe add the # in the confirmation e mail

Great internet and smart TV. Quite area that's a 5 minutes walk to multiple stations that will get you to all around Osaka. Plenty of Convenience stores and about 15 minutes from one of the touristy area. If you stay longer than 3 days you can get new towels every day and you can request for you room to be cleaned at a specific time during the day. Recommend going for the double bed option if you are bigger.

Very modern, new and clean. Rooms, hallway, bathrooms and showers are very clean and new. The rooms are comfortable and smell like a new clean hotel room. Pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness!

While the inside of the hotel is perfect. The area is not. It's in the slums area of Osaka. A lot of homelessness, garbage and can be sketchy to check-in after dark. Preferably don't walk through this area alone, especially if you are a single female traveler.

Room was spacious enough, toilets were clean, overall very quiet at night. Overall very good as the metrostation was nearby!

Some minor stains on bedsheets, the windows are not soundproof and you can hear people outside (if they were loud) but it didnt bother our sleep. There was shit on the males shower room like wtf (obviously was from other quest and nothing the hostel could have done bout it).
