Location is incredible! I didn’t interact much with the staff but they were always at the front desk with the exception of late late at night. The rooms are decent, a little run down and small(tight corners more than anything) but definitely did the trick for the price and location. I’d stay again!

It was very conveniently located a couple of streets away from Dotonbori. Once you get the hang of where you’re going from the train station, you’re only a 3/4 mins walk away. Staff were extremely nice and there is free snacks/ drinks in the lobby

The beds were small but comfortable. The hotel was clean and staff were very helpful. The hotel is centrally located so it’s very close to the running man sign, lots of restaurants and stores and train stations.
Should we every go back to Osaka, we would be happy to stay here again.
