The hotel itself is ok but nothing great to look forward to. The surrounding area is run down and near a freeway overpass. They seem to largely cater to cost-conscious tourists. Would advise staying near Umeda station instead.

Nice hotel

Staff are friendly and polite. Rooms are clean, and it was helpful they provided a robe you can wear in the room and that coin-operated washing machines/dryers didn’t require you to have detergent. It’s very conveniently located, with numerous restaurants and convenience stores available in a short walking distance.

Simple stay, needed things are provided for a Japanese Hotel. As we had a corner room, the room felt more spacious but not sure if the other rooms were the same built or not. Was able to open up a medium size suite case in the open space and still be able to move around without feeling crammed in. Room was clean and did not have any issues. Will keep in mind as a good hotel for my next visit to the area again.

The hotel is a short walk from Shin-Osaka station, although we more frequently used Nishi Nakajima Minamigata subway station to Umeda (2 stations away) and Namba. The room is generally bigger than most hotels in Umeda and Namba, and cheaper too. They adopt an eco-plan where the room will only be cleaned every 3 nights of stay, but no worries, they provide fresh towels everyday. There are certainly not as many shops and eateries in comparison to Umeda and Namba, but quite a handful on the other side of the subway station, including a couple of supermarkets and fast food restaurants. The hotel staffs are nice, and facilities include coin laundry, ice machine, vending machine etc. A few convenience stores near the hotel too. Didn't try their breakfast, no comment on that. We almost had our breakfast daily from Komeda Coffee nearby. Will consider staying at this hotel again, especially if we are using Shinkansen.
