I was pleasantly surprisef that when I got off exactly from Dobutsuen-mae station (Midosouji line) via exit 3, when you look at your righr side, you can alreasy see the entrance of the hotel,though i didn't see elevator in exit 3, so be prepared to carry your luggage going up the stairs. anyway, the hotel have elevators so no worries. they also have available amenities & free unlimited coffee. the hotel also have access to the family mart nearby. and i noticed that there are at least 2 family mart nearby & lawson.. there is also a 24-hr mega don quijote just a street away. if you're thinking of taking a train going to airport (KIX), you can take Shin-Imamiya station(JR line) & check the schedule of the nankai-limited express or just take the ordinary line which stops at every station. but do take note that you need to enter the west gate,w/c is around 400m and not the one across the hotel (east gate) cause that was my mistake & i needed to go up & down the stairs. but I think you can also enter via east gate, but not sure what platform to take to easily get to airport. if you will arrive earlier than your check in time, you can also leave ypur luggage in their reception. you just ask their staff.. the room size is just right for me since I am travelling alone. I was able to open my medium size & small luggage at the same time when I was packing. so quite spacious if I will compare it to the room I got in Kyoto

I only stayed 2 days so everything was ok during my stay

I booked on the day and for a last-minute booking found it very affordable. Staff were very helpful and had some English, they also kept my bags in reception before checking in and after checking out. They have some nice facilities like a built in Family Mart (you get 10% back on food and drink with receipt), laptops you can use, laundry room, microwave. Good location, very close to metro.

The towels were rather thin, and would have liked a daily clean of the room/change of towels. The electricity in the room runs off your keycard, so when not in the room doesn't work which means the AC and fridge won't work when you leave - would have appreciated being able to keep drinks chilled while out.

- Superb location with 2 local metro lines (Midosuji & Sakaisuji) right at the doorstep and Shin Imamiya JR just across the road. - Immaculate room with an attached bathroom. - Directly connected to a Family Mart (although the private access hardly works). - The room is dirt cheap. Note: Osaka Nishinari-ku (西成区) does look a tad bleak and dodgy but I didn't run into any problem.

- Spotty internet connection. I practically had to tether my laptop to my mobile every night.

The staff are the highlight of this hotel. Always attentive to help you. Even though their English Skills were not that great, they managed to communicate through translation apps and provided the information that I was looking for. The room, was average and as the hotel is on the main road, there were occasional loud cars and motorbikes that were a nuisance during the night. But at the price point, I will not complain. After one day, I got used to the sound. And the plus point is that this is right across the street to the JR train station gate, which made it extremely convenient. I also used the washing machine and dryer. They also have a laptop for the guests to use.

Clean hotel, friendly staff, good price. Easy to get to. Have a convenience store connected to the ground floor, guests can get 10% back on all payments there if they show a receipt. The hotel serves free coffee and tea. I think this is a super good combination for breakfast and dinner when you are busy - you can walk directly into the store from the hotel, and walk directly back into the hotel into the small dining area with some microwaves.

Hotel was right next to the train tracks, and I could hear trains in the night. Still slept OK with earplugs, but worth pointing out.

Staff is super friendly, and the location for the local attractions is great. Family Mart is in the hotel lobby, which is very convenient.for a couple of nights the hotel is worth its money.

The hotel towels contained some long hair inside, but the room overall was clean. Additionally, the building is just in front of the rails, so you will hear all the trains till late time and from early in the morning. Only one pillow, which is so thin, that you can barely call it a pillow..

Perfect location for my needs. Located right next to Shin Sekai, and literally next to the underground and JR stations, and about a 5 minute walk from the Nankai line. MegaDonkiHote less than 1 minute walk away too, and you can seee Abeno Harukas from outside too! Complimentary amenities and tea/coffee/water is a bonus too.

More accessibility for visitors of guests, in order to provide a better social experience. Not necessarily in the rooms, but the rules about visitors are not stated immediately.

first let's make it clear that this is a very cheap, and no-frills hotel, but I had a very good time: the location is great, the value for money is great, all services are available, the staff is friendly and cooperative. I was satisfied, and extended my stay by 2 days. I had already stayed in this hotel a year or so ago.

all good for me, but I repeat:this is a cheap and no-frills hotel, don't get the wrong expectations.

Location was great. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and everything worked great. The room had a great desk aswell.

Since it is right by the street and the train station, it was quite noisy. Lots of sirens and trains going by every 5-10 mins. Sound travels through the building quite well. I travel with ear plugs, so sleeping was not a problem for me.

Location is really good! Shin-Imamiya and Doubutsuen Mae Stations are a few steps from the hotel. You can also get to Shinsekai and Abeno Harukas walking for a while. If you miss the last train to or from Namba, you can get there by foot, around 25min. There is a Family Mart attached to the hotel and a Mega Donki in the corner.

The towels were too thin and the bed too short but for the price it was acceptable.
