In the heart of Dotonbori, literally have the Dotonbori river as it's backyard, from free breakfast and drinks. This place is a must for first timers and small groups. Free Pancakes, Sweet Matcha, Pepsi, Ginger Ale, Coffee, Tea!! The small but comfy and convenient kitchen/lobby with USB charging points was our favourite hang out after a long day of walking around Osaka.

Street was sketchy. Sex hotel a few doors away. Tiny rooms with no closet or drawer space. Bathroom is very small. No place to put luggage. Very hard beds and killed 2 spiders. They do not offer daily cleaning. Would not recommend.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
These rooms are very small for two people, even just for one. They’re significantly smaller than other Japanese hotel rooms I’ve stayed in and the room’s finishes, amenities, and cleanliness were not up to standard. It felt quite run down and worn throughout. It’s classed as a four-star hotel but it’s questionable if it even has the amenities to qualify. I’d only recommend this to traveling young adults who want to party in Dotonbori and are willing to “rough it out.” We checked out early and took the loss

Our room had smelled like a dog had been staying there. The dog-smell was so strong we had to air out the room and use deodorize spray to remove it. Also there was a piece of white chewed up gum that was not ours on the bathroom floor when we entered. It was clear the room was not cleaned thoroughly.

The hotel is located right on the edge of the very busy, interesting, and happening Dotonbori area but just far enough to be quiet. Staff were always friendly, helpful, and kept the facility clean.

My favourite property in Namba. Its dead centre of Dotonbori and also quiet and and very clean property. Tiny rooms but I was given a disabled room and big bed. Just few meters away from Dotonbori’s main attractions. Eventhough cleaning was not done daily, I was getting regular clean towels and bins were emptied. I will stay here again. 100%

Very nice hotel in a premium part of Osaka. Excellent Japanese/American breakfast, free coffee/tea and a free pancake machine (very neat), and good toiletries. Literally steps from the best parts of the city, and lovely staff. We made a mistake and didn't utilize the back exit enough which opens to a beatiful canal that you can walk on with shops and also brings you to the highlights of the city.
