Nice big common space, beds were comfortable, rooms were nice, AC for each room was really nice, there's a nice cafe on the first floor that serves lunch, not far from the train and tram station, close to a supermarket, good for those who want a more quiet place to stay, and had good hair dyers for use.

A little far from downtown, the bathroom wasn't cleaned every day, and there was the same guy (a staff person?) sitting in the same spot every day (for 4 days), practically 24/7, in the common space with earphones doing something on a tablet - it made the space uneasy and somewhat uncomfortable to use.

The property sends all details before you check in. I was able to easily go in when I arrived. The nearest train station is less than 10minutes away and the neighborhood is peaceful. There is only 1 toilet for each gender but I never encountered issues with it. Three shower rooms are available in the floor where I stayed in. Toiletries are provided and hair dryers are available but towels are for rent. The beds are big and comfy and I loved that the room is spacious. Each bed also has curtains for privacy. I was able to pack my things and fix my luggage inside the room. Property is quiet, except for night when there's a gathering in the common room. They offer a free bike rental but I wasn't able to try it since was a short stay. There's also a restaurant in the first floor which opens at 11am.

The noise from the common room can be heard in the 4th floor. No lockers are provided. It wasn't much of an issue for me but it would be good to keep in mind if you need to leave valuables in the room.

I absolutely loved this hostel! It’s one of the best hostels I have ever stayed in. There’s an elevator. The hosts are very kind and very generous. We needed an extra bed arranged unexpectedly and they arranged it for us without any trouble. The place is really clean and super super spacious. The common room is amazing with access to lots of games and amenities such as microwave and cutlery. The bathrooms are clean - the showers are great with amazing water pressure. The place is located quite centrally - close to station and only 15 mins from Namba and very easy to connect to the airport from there too. There’s a family mart not too far from the place and a laundry service place closeby. Thank you so so much to the hosts! We had the best stay!

It's perfect for solo or group travel. You could reach or connect by using bus, train, and it doesn't take much time to travel between center of Osaka like Namba station or Umeda station. I could enjoy a short walk during night time to Mitsuyoshi Taisha and the night view was fantastic. There's shopping street where you could enjoy local foods and purchase necessities as well. I decided to stay here to join football matches in Yanmar Stadium Nagai and it's perfect choice. Guesthouse allows you to have flexible schedule, arriving late is OK since it has private entrance. Also thank you the owner for accommodating my early checkin! :)

I couldn't complain about anything. The experience here was perfect!

Location is great, very close to the train station. Free lender bicycles that I REALLY appreciate a lot. The common area is SO big! and the restaurant on the first floor is really good.

If I need to no mention something to improve, it might be lack of touches in the building to me make it warmer (I mean, like a guesthouse). It is comfortable, but some decoration or human touches might be even better. However, everything was great.

It was quiet, clean and comfortable. Pleasant lounge and a nice kitchen zone. Easy check-in, you just get some codes and instructions in advance. A decent supermarket very close to the guesthouse. My bed was comfy, but squeaky. It can be a problem if you are concerned about not distributing your neighbors. And yes, having booked a “room with single occupancy” you finally get a bed in a dorm. That was a surprise. 10-minute walk to the metro station and then a 20-minute ride.

Everything was just fine, but maybe they should make the booking process and room description more understandable.

I like the tram and also it’s a 10 mins walk to kohama station but not recommended if you’re elderly. Lots of walking.

The shower area is haunted. Heard noises and one of my travel companion heard a hello right outside while she was showering. The room smells damp. But had no disturbance in the room while sleeping.

The bikes provided were amazing. We used them since it seemed like there was high vacancy at the time we went. The shower and bathroom were exceptionally clean and up to date. Many amenities were provided. The beds were very comfortable and private. I was not able to get a rental towel though.

I didn’t explore every aspect of the guesthouse, but the most important thing is that I felt comfortable as a guest. Staff and hosts are nowhere to be seen, it’s their way to be saying, “be my guest”. Perhaps it is also a way Japanese people express politeness not to disturb their guests. Maybe I see this as more positive than lack of help. Maybe I like it this way more than staff watching my moves 24hrs.

Clean room and facilities. The room I stayed in had 4 beds but only 1 other guest and myself were staying in it so it was nice, almost felt like having your own room and for this price, it is a great value

Not much to say about what I didn't like. Location wise it is in a quiet neighborhood a little away from the city centre but it is close to a train line so you can get there easily.
