Usually don't bother with reviews. But this place was exceptional. High level of English. Very clean rooms. Very comfortable breaky room and view from the lounge/breaky room. Right on the canal. They arranged Yamato for my suitcases to Tokyo. Elevators not congested. (smaller hotel) laundry was easy and machines lock w a pin code and have detergent within the machine :) just everything was great for me. (Canadian from BC)

You get what you pay for

Location was convenient to dotonburi but the room had a faint cigarette smell despite it being a non smoking hotel - probably my biggest issue given I’m sensitive to cigarette smoke. Reception on arrival was not extremely friendly, they don’t have a lot of amenities (which is fine for the price point), and these rooms will be on the smaller side of what you’ll find. The luggage needs to be stored under the bed to really make the space work, and the shower/bath faucet is also used for the sink ( to give an idea of overall size)

Perfect location for exploring Osaka, just a few mins from vibey Dotonbori and Namba station which connects to everywhere. The rooms are very small, even by Japan standards, but clean, functional and safe. Even though it’s a busy area, it wasn’t noisy and the blackout blinds in the room were excellent. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

When we first checked into our room we noticed that there was a lot of hair and food crumbs on the floor, so we asked at the concierge if someone could come vacuum for us. They said no, but we could switch rooms (probably too late in the day for housekeeping - all good). The new room didn't have as dirty of a floor, but I wouldn't call it super clean (some visible dust, grimy bathroom floor), and the shower didn't drain. We think the concierge did whatever they could to help, but the housekeeping just isn't very thorough, and it's not an extremely cheap hotel so we wouldn't ever stay there again.

Fairly small but exceptionally clean, convenient, and just what we needed. Tv is able to show you traffic, weather, and if the hotel kitchen or laundry area is busy so you can plan accordingly. Onsite Laundry very helpful and easy. Staff friendly and helpful. Wish we could have stayed longer! Thanks!!!
