Pretty standard hotel, but we weren't really prepared for the vibe of the Dotonbori neighbourhood. Thank god for the blackout blinds, and we were high enough that there wasn't any noise bleeding in, but be prepared for a Vegas-like experience when you get outside and start walking the streets. Neon signs, street food, night clubs - wasn't what we were looking for.

The first room was dirty and the aircon made awful noise, so staff put us in another room. Second room was not great, it was smaller and the view was right next to a wall. I asked for a different room on the opposite side where the first room was and they agreed. There was no bedside light, it was broken. Halfway through the stay, the safe in the nightstand started beeping constantly and would not stop, had to take the whole nightstand down to the front desk. Never got a replacement. Room was only surface clean. Corners, behind things, and under bed were very dirty.

Hotel is about a 5-10 minute walk from the station. The room was clean and perfect for our trip. The hotel does not service the room during your stay but they provide new towels and are able to clean your trash everyday. The area surrounding the hotel is dōtonbori so there are plenty of dining options near the hotel. Hotel area is very walkable but also near the nightlife scene so if you do not mind it, then the hotel is a great stay.

Good hotel and the location is amazing. The rooms are spacious for that price range. The check-in and checkout process is smooth. Make sure you checkout on time or you’ll be charged. The hotel is right behind Dotonbori area and Shinsaibashi shopping street. The area is packed with restaurants and street food vendors. You’ll never run out of options for food. Family Mart and 7-11 are few steps away and Don Quijote is across the street from the hotel in front of the parking lot. It’s open 24/7 so you can shop for chocolates and souvenirs if Osaka is your final stop. A lot of bars and nightclubs in front of the hotel for those who enjoy the late hour night life. I like the hotel because the rooms feel premium and quiet. I’m definitely coming back again

The hotel is old and small, bathroom is also small, the staff loiters the hallway by the elevator and they kept their things on the way like the linen cart for the whole day. Those linen carts blocks the way to the elevator and it doesn’t look nice. The only thing that is good is the location of the hotel, everything is nearby. Even the food for breakfast is not good. For the price that we pay, it is not worth it.

You can see Don Quijote from your window. You are in the heart of Dotonbori, specifically, one block from the main bridge with the Glico Running Man. That being said, it can be loud until midnight. The city starts late, and goes on through the night. If you are a light sleeper, I'd recommend requesting a room that is not facing the main street. Overall, it was a great stay. Short walks to the subway, and endless food options. Room was ok, the bathroom was clean, but I found some old slippers under the bed. There is no housekeeping, you have to put your trash and towels outside your door before you leave for the day. The attendant will replenish your towels and hang them in a bag on your door handle. Laundry is only available in the lobby and there is only 2 washers and 2 dryers. If you plan to visit adjacent cities in the Kansai region like Kyoto and Nara, making Osaka your hub is a great option.

Dotonbori Stay

Alrught, the location is the best part of this hotel. I will give it 10/10 on location. It is very close to Osaka Castle, Namba station, Dotonbori and Kuromon Market. I liked this part the most.

Let’s get into some of the other deciding factors. The hotel smelled from the minute we walked in, like there was a sewage issue or something with the plumbing, we were there a total of 3 days and 2 of those days had this smell even in our room.

The hotel staff was very nice, they held our bags for us after checkout. Customer service is great. The only issue was the smell.

Spacey and convenient

So much more space than other hotels we've been in at the same price range. The location was excellent. Default no cleaning which we didn't need anyway but they provided towels everyday without needing to request it so it's great. Only improvement is providing the number of towels for the same number of occupants.

A nice place to stay besides one bad apple...

The hotel was nice and in a good location. The rooms were pretty small but not out of the ordinary for Japan. Most of the staff was very pleasant and helpful except for one person. I didn't catch his name but he did work the evening/night shift. He was a short, fairly pudgy guy who wore glasses. We had wanted to send some of our luggage to Kansai airport before we left, as to make our way back to the airport a little easier. The hotel's advertisement in the room clearly stated that such a luggage service was available. We had inquired with one of the girls and she said that we would need to have whatever bags we wanted to send to the airport available by 11 a.m. the day before our flight. A couple of days later my cousin who is born and raised in Japan joined us for the weekend. Since he is fluent in Japanese I had him double check with this guy. I wouldn't say he was rude but he insisted over and over again that there is no such service. A blatant lie. In fact, over the course of our stay I witnessed luggage being being up and dropped off by a service. The other issue I had was that the website states japanese/english speaking. None of them seemed to really understand english. Other than that, it was a really nice place to stay. It's too bad one bad apple can put a damper on an otherwise nice stay.

Terrible experience. It was a headache to communicate with a non english front desk staff. Room was so small, amenities are limited, towels are so small and I got an eye infection probably from their pillows or towels. As much as it’s accessible to shopping place, the hotel area at day and night is not safe: it’s close-by prostitution clubs. I will NEVER go back to this hotel.

The property itself was great - the lobby was very nice, there are bikes to rent outside, staff were friendly and professional, and there is coin laundry available for use.
I had a room with no housekeeping, which was perfectly fine for my use – they left a new package of towels every morning outside the door, and you could leave your dirty towels outside to exchange, or just keep them in the room until checkout if you didn't use them all/aren't staying too long/etc.
I was easily able to store luggage before checkin and after checkout to get them off my hands to enjoy the rest of my day even if I couldn't access the room during the time.
The only caveat I would say is that location-wise, the Shinsaibashi area at night is quite different from daytime I would say. It is very convenient to go around, but, while it was never explicitly unsafe, if you are a solo female traveller, the crowds that are out at night could possibly make you feel uncomfortable, and might be something to keep in mind.

Construction right behind hotel be aware

Hotel was centrally located to all we wanted to see and do during our short time in Osaka. Hotel was very clean and seemed nice until the first morning we were there. There was a construction site behind the hotel with drills waking us up at 8am both mornings we were there. The hotel should have had a warning on their site or should have at least placed us on the opposite side facing away from the construction. If you want to be able to sleep in I would suggest not staying here for at least another year as they were just breaking ground.
