Hotel Monterey Le Frere Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, friendly staff, convenient location. More laundry facilities would be helpful for the size of the hotel, as 4 washers and 4 dryers is not a lot. One person had taken over 2 of the dryers while our clothes were still in the washer and we had to take the wet clothes up to our room to hang them up"
