The atmosphere, especially of the public areas, was charming and rustic, and storage was generous. Staff was friendly and helpful, and had good recommendations. Also it was great value for the money.

The staff were very friendly, however the wooden beds made for an uncomfortable night alongside a very hot room with only one small fan. The back of my bed had a gap in the wall to peer outside that was right to the street. Didn't sleep much at all

We had such a nice stay at Pax while in Osaka. Moka greeted us warmly upon arrival, sat us down and explained the rules of the hostel. She is friendly, kind and made us feel right at home! The hostel rooms, kitchen and bathrooms were extremely clean. Hank was great to talk to and provided us with guidance and local suggestions. The bahn mis and coffee were delicious and the overall vibe of the place was cozy and welcoming. We met other travelers and everyone was friendly. Can’t wait to return some day!

Great hostel, loved the hosts and staff. I feel like other travelers can sometimes make or break the hostel experience, but I felt like everyone was quite respectful of each other and overall had good vibes during my time there.

Cozy and welcoming!

My stay at PAX started with a welcoming staff who carried my luggage up to my room and also Introduced me to the local area and provided me maps and suggestions. PAX is a relaxing space with records and a slide you can enjoy! WiFi is Strong and the beds are comfy. I highly recommend this hostel!! It’s about a 5 min walk to the subway. Thanks for a great stay! Much love ~Michelle~

Perfect stepping off point in Tsutenkaku

Easy to find hostel with a cafe and record place down the bottom that serves really great coffee and such yummy food! I had the vegetarian banh mi two days in a row and it was so nice. Oishi! Check in was easy and the reception offered to take my bag up the steps to my room which was really nice. Really friendly and easy going staff, mainly Japanese and good English (I will learn more Japanese for my next visit I promise!). I was in the female dorm and the bunks were quite private and comfortable with a lock box, a little shelf, a light, a plug and some hangers on hooks. I had a little trouble getting up and down the ladder cos my fat thighs kept getting stuck, not sure why the wood goes up so high cos I found it a little unwieldy with my uncoordinated body hahaa. The bed was comfortable but got a little warm in the middle of the day when I slept in cos I was next to the window but it wasn't really an issue. All the facilities are very clean and well looked after. Only one shower in my area but I didn't have a problem accessing it (luck, perhaps?) and there is a very cheap onsen close to the hostel.
There really wasn't much to fault whatsoever and they were really kind to me about a massive stuff up I made due to a change in my circumstances so I recommend this place wholeheartedly. Other guests were very nice too. Thank you!

Feels like home~

The staff were really friendly, makes you feel like home. Such a shame that my stay was so short and couldn’t interact more with people there. Only down side is that, if you have many baggage it would be very tiring to move everything by the stairs. Location wise was so good! So much food and so near to Spa world! I can go in the middle of the night and walk back after. So awesome!

Nice hostel at tsutenkaku tower

- the Staff are super lovely and willing to help with anything including food recommendations and bike hire!
- everything is nice & clean. the bunk beds have screens between them so your own bed is pretty private. bags are stored at the end of the bed, which can be squishy but there's just enough room. If you're uncoordinated maybe try to get a bottom bunk because the ladders to the top bed can be awkward and I came away with a few bruises.
- the 2 six bed dorms share a kitchen area and bathroom with 2 toilets and a shower. However in my 3 nights this was fine and I never had to wait long to use anything.
- on the nights I stayed the hostel was pretty quiet - downstairs closed up at 10 and there weren't any other guests in common areas after that however I think this hostel might be around the corner from a police station because one of the nights there were loud sirens going off nearly all night which I think kept waking up our entire room
- lots of food shops around, a fun little area to explore with a public bath close by if you want to experience that - but it's also close to subway line to get around.
- they have a washer and dryer for small loads, but there is also a coin laundry in the st if needed
- would recommend

A cosy hostel for travellers

A nicely decorated hostel in a convenient location, around 5-10 minutes walking distance to nearby train stations. Staff are very friendly. The lounge on G/F also offers coffee and music for you to enjoy. Highly recommend to those who like meeting new friends during travel.
