If you only have a few days to visit Osaka, this location is the most convenient option. The front desk is open 24 hours, staffed by kind and polite employees who speak English. I noticed that most guests are local Japanese, with not many foreign tourists. I recommend this place if you want to experience traditional tatami-style accommodations and a public bath, reflective of Japanese living.

Great service at a good price in an amazing location. Countless dining options nearby and clean facilities around the entire hotel. Only complaint would be the high noise levels at some hours of the night, but that’s because of the location and not something the hotel can control.

The breakfast female staffs were friendly. The male staff charged me extra hotel tax and gave no receipt, even though tax was suppose to be already included when I paid online - very sketch. Things felt older than expected, but the facility was decent enough for such a location.
