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.

The location is perfect. It is walkable and around less than 10 min walking distance to the subway station. The staffs are kind and I enjoyed their big bath room. You need to prepare the charger as most of outlets only have two poles. Drinking water provided is not sufficient for three people. The room can contain 4 to 5 people for a family with up to 2 to 3 kids. We can see people walking on the street from the window. It is a memorable place.

Solid property in a great and convenient area. The rooms are quite dated and a little dirty but it's also the cheapest place around, didn't bother us much. Staff was really friendly and the traditional breakfast (paid) was great. They offer a free luggage keep that was super convenient as well.

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.

How lovely everyone was. How good the food was. We booked a meal and although normally you don't eat in a separate room they do so for us anyway. There was plenty of space for luggage. Comfortable futon floor beds. Room service everyday.

The staff were very courteous and spoke English very well. They laid the futons out for us while we were out, and I'm not sure if it's part of the room cleaning, that we never put the sign out for, but they never picked the futons back up. Not a big deal, We didn't spend too much time in the room anyway. We weren't able to check out the bath house or sauna house as the hotel is right across the street from Dotonbori street and we spent every day walking around Osaka.

I liked how close it was to everything although I think I'd like something a little farther away next time. I had a view of Dontonburi market from my window and the traditonal breakfast food was decent but def cheaper to go somewhere else but is convenient since its right on the property. Staff was great but there was one night where the elevator didnt work and of course I was on the 5th floor and the onsen looked sad and not kept up well. They put community brushes in there which i think is disgusting and it just didnt feel clean in there. The room itself was great though and sleeping in the futon was comfortable.

Fint sted for en familie

To voksne og to tenåringer bodde her 4 netter. Tradisjonelt japansk rom i 3.etg. Koselig onsen i kjelleren som ble benyttet hver kveld. Fint sted med god beliggenhet nær Dotonbori område og Nipponbashi metro. Vi bestilte tradisjonell japansk frokost en morgen, som var god. De andre dagene spiste vi på små steder i byen.
