Clean room with all the expected amenities. Very friendly staff, I’d always get an “ohayo” or “konnichiwa” when walking past. Very convenient location, just 1 stop away from Osaka station, although Osaka is so pleasant that I’d usually just walk 15 minutes instead of taking the train. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting Osaka.

Excellent and very convenient location. Guest bedroom and bathrooms very small, but with all needed commodities for a comfortable stay.
Great property and great location with the train right outside and a 7/11 right down stairs as well. Friendly staff and extremely helpful!

Very very small room when advertised that 4 people can sleep there, what about luggage? No toilets in the hotel including facilities for babies. Location as the best point for this hotel, close from tube and bus stations.. walkable distance to science museum

Hotel 👍Perfect location is a beautiful hotel the room are very small !!!
The bathroom are small to but extremely clean the room service cleaning is absolutely as is best perfection Bales but ok costumes service reception is unspeakable exquisite 👍I personally highly recommend for short visits to Osaka 👍👍
The space is just right for the 3 people. Bathroom space just enough for you to move sometimes you will hit the wall for some reason lol. Cleanliness is my main priority. The bed is good for us if other firm isn’t good for them for us just right. 7-11 and restaurant for ramen just around the property and it’s beautiful. We had a great time there.
Really close to the subway and bus stops, also has a 711 and Starbucks outside. The bathroom and room definitely had a bit more space than other hotels in japan.
