Pleasant stay
One night only. Staff allowed us to leave bags for free in advance of check in, allowing us to explore Osaka without carting bags around. Pleasant staff, central location in Shinosaka.

OK hotel for a short overnight stay
Fine basic hotel for an overnight, small room, not much by way of facilities, but cheap, clean and quite close to shin osaka station. Nothing to celebrate, but fit for purpose.

Smaller rooms, doors open in, so a little cramped. Wish A/C was colder. 7/11 on first floor 24 hours was amazing. Lots of elevators, very wonderful staff!

The staff were very friendly and the location was very convenient for transportation. They also have a konbini right at the bottom of the hotel which is very nice.

Property is okay. I booked room with breakfast and paid extra for it. As i went for my first breakfast i told them that i had gluten allergy so want to avoid food with gluten. They refuse to serve me breakfast and told the money i paid will be refunded but never got refunded. Every other place i stayed the restaurant just show me food with gluten and i eat rest. I am not sure why they wont serve me food for gluten allergy.

Nice place to stay
Overall stay was great. Space, facilities including washing machines, 7-11stores, breakfast restaurant etc, were easy to access.
Just the Wi-Fi was very slow for the first few days then got better.

Unfortunately the mattress was extremely firm making it feel as it I was sleeping on the floor. No A/C available even though property details say it does have A/C . When turning on, it was only blowing warm air. Staff indicated it couldn’t be changed and only option was to open room window which would be uncomfortable due to outside noise
