Liked: Staff & service
Room Cleanliness: Not impressed. When I first entered the room, I found a used toothpick on the carpet near the door, which gave a poor first impression. During my four-day stay, I also noticed that one of the two beds was wobbly and creaked whenever my partner moved. Both mattresses were too soft in the center, and the pillows were very thin even though there were two per bed. Comfort & Facilities: The room temperature is centrally controlled, and renting a heater or cooler costs extra. There is no air filter in the room. In the lobby, there is nowhere to sit and wait, which was inconvenient. Location & Amenities: Great location—very close to JR Osaka and Namba Subway stations. The hotel offers free luggage storage, and there are hot baths available. Check-in and check-out were simple and efficient. Summary: Convenient location and some helpful amenities, but cleanliness and comfort need improvement.

The positives were the location, right near a metro and a short walk to Dotonbori where there are loads of bars, shops and restaurants. It was quiet at night. There are lots of free toiletries available including razors, hair ties, toothbrushes (all wrapped in copious plastic though). The downsides are the room is tiny with nowhere to store luggage or clothing. A main selling point for us was the rooftop pool but that is only open in summer, so we couldn't use it, and you can only use the spa/ public bath if you're prepared to go naked (we weren't). The pillows are hard and crunchy, I got a bad neck. My main concern was safety, it is very difficult to get out of the building, the lifts are very busy so it can take 20 minutes to get down to the lobby, and there are no stairs. If you are claustrophobic this is the worst place to stay. It was very overpriced, for what it was. The most expensive place we stayed in Japan and also our least favourite.

This hotel was really nice. The ease of access made it wonderful. On the 4th floor there are vending machines, his & her onsen's (no tattoos allowed), a 7-11 convenience store, a laundry (pay per wash & dry, usually busy in the evenings), & a cool vacuum sealing machine to help make packing your suitcase easier (300 yen per pack). The rooftop view is unmatched. Theres a pool and hot tub up there with a 40th floor view of Osaka which is incredible in the day, at sunset, & at night, & there is no charge, access is included with the room. There are a few restaurants, not really any vegan/vegetarian options but the 7-11 does have some. The hotel is clean, the rooms are lovely with space under the bed for your suitcases. Windows only open a crack for ventilation but the view from the roof makes up for that. Cleaning is by request only but they leave you fresh towels, robes, and amenities in a bag at your door every day and you just put your old ones in the bag and hang it outside your room for pickup. There are signs in english all over the room that have valuable information relevant to your stay. The tv home screen has an informative video that also has many informative tips relevant to your stay. I recommend you read the signs, watch the video, & familiarize yourself with everything when you arrive. Some signs are in Japanese, use the google translator app, its a huge help. The staff was helpful & friendly and check-in and out is super fast and easy! Lovely hotel!
