Overall: I booked this hotel because it said it had a pool, but information they provide on Expedia about the pool is very misleading and had they been more honest I would have booked a different hotel. If the pool doesn’t matter to you then you might not care, but I want to warn anyone who is also using that as a deciding factor.

Pros: Clean, and convenient to transit.

The hotel sits on top of a subway station that runs two major lines, meaning you’re only a few stops away from most of the Osaka sights. The neighbourhood itself doesn’t have much to offer, it’s mostly hotels or offices,

Cons: Neighbourhood, Pool, Room Size and Hotel Processes

Neighbourhood: It’s got major roadways and not much that you’d want to walk around.

Pool: On Expedia they list the pool as an amenity, and we read all the fine print to ensure there were no pool fees, as we’d encountered that at other Japanese hotels. They just list it as a “1 seasonal outdoor pool on site” and provide no information in the additional fee section. However once you arrive they inform you that the pool is not included in your reservation, and they charge 1,000 yen for children and 1,500-2,000 yen for adults for one hour of use of the pool. For my family an hour in the pool You also can only use the pool starting on the hour, and will be turned away or only get the remainder of the hour if you try to book it not on the hour. I also think calling it an outdoor pool is misleading. It’s open to the sky, but is in the ce

Our room was on the 32nd floor. When we arrived it was hot. Tried to turn on everything but nothing would turn on unless you had a room key plugged into a slot by the door. The room was tidy and clean. The furniture though in the sitting/ living room. There was a couch that was big enough for two people to sit on. The furniture was actually quite uncomfortable. The facility does has washer and dryers in the basement. As per the rules listed if no one comes to get them seek help from staff. They’ll take care of it. Overall the hotel was good. The breakfast brunch was good too. Buffet style if you paid for it. And the hotel also has a mini mart across from the restaurant so you don’t need to leave the property. I would stay here again. Also within walking distance to Dontonbori .

We didn’t anticipate quite how small the rooms would be, but I can’t hold that against the hotel.
However, the check-in process for three rooms (4 people) was everything but straight forward. The first computer didn’t work and so we had to change computers, and repeat the process. Although there were people to assist they wouldn’t just check us in. It took 45 minutes before we had our key passes.
Additionally, the pool needs to be reserved and comes at an extra charge of around ¥2500 per person per hour!
In the summer heat that was a bit disappointing since I booked the hotel specifically for the pool.
Now, the rooms are tiny but the amenities are good. Beds are comfortable and the breakfast and dinner buffet is excellent.
Disappointingly, the reception staff also couldn’t book us a taxi. Giving us phone numbers for taxi companies, as non-Japanese speakers felt a bit half hearted effort (if not pointless).

My stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing. The room was filthy, with dirt and stains that made it feel like it hadn’t been cleaned properly in a long time. The overall condition of the hotel was run-down and unpleasant. On top of that, the staff were very rude and unhelpful throughout my stay. They seemed annoyed whenever I asked a question and showed little concern for guests. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean, welcoming, or enjoyable place to stay.

Hotel is in a great location right next to the train station and there is a Family Mart on the 2nd floor, 7-11 next door and Starbucks really close. You have to pay to use the pool, there's no daily housekeeping and the pillows are like rocks. You have to consistently wait a long time for an elevator. No one explains the hotel amenities to you. Bathroom had about a 10\" step up to get into it and the room was extremely cramped. Checkout is early at 10am and they charge if you're late. We basically had no contact with a staff member from arrival to departure.

It’s very convenient location. It’s connected from subway station. The subway station “Honmachi” has the exit (#18) for this hotel. No rain bother you. Even to Senba Building #10 ( which has lots of dining places) you can go with out rain bothering.
One thing bothered me was big height difference bathroom and room. Coming out from the bathroom is little hard for elderly people.

Great location right next to the train station. There is a Family Mart on the second floor of the hotel and a 7 Eleven right around the corner which we utilized often. They do have a restaurant and coffee bar on site. The area was walkable with restaurants and cafes nearby. We enjoyed the hot baths almost every night after a long day of shopping and exploring. The hotel was clean and staff were friendly and helpful. It was overall a pleasant stay.

Surprising that if you wanted to use the pool you have to pay but the Onsen was included. For Western culture travelers with kids/teenagers we would have prefer to have the free access to the pool.
Hotel was nice and comfortable.
The staff was friendly but not sure if it was the language barriers that make the process of things slow. Over all I would recommend the hotel.

stayed here for a week for our osaka/kyoto trip. The staff are all friendly and very prompt to respond to your needs. Train station is literally on the basement floor of the building easy access for going around the city. There’s family mart in the building and 7-11 right around the corner. I like the location cause it’s not in the middle of the hustle bustle of dotonbori and namba so you get a quiet at night but it’s a 10 min drive to all tourist destinations.
Only thing is like majority of hotels in Japan rooms are small so we got a double twin room. And the heat/air conditioning is centralized so if your like us who likes to sleep on a cool room then that’s something to consider. Otherwise, we were okay just opened the window for some cool natural air. It’s spring so I assume it’s still heating that they’re using.
Overall, I would stay there again on my next trip.
