2/10 Poor

AVOID STAYING HERE AT ALL COST. it was so unsanitary that i got BUG BITES, all over my body. me and my sister ended up cutting our stay after we found out we got bug bites. we found a cleaner hotel to stay at. we were on the third floor and they have super STEEP stairs for our luggage to go on our floor. we didnt even attempt to bring it up since we know we were going to get hurt trying to carry it upstairs. absolutely horrible.

Nice and very affordable. Small but comfy bed. Nice staff. Got nice recommendations of where to go in Osaka. I enjoyed my stay, and I might come back specially because it's very close to the train station.

4/10 Fair

100円でタオルをレンタルしたのですが、たぶん前回床でも拭いたのか、タオルがところどころ拭いた跡で真っ黒！ 持ってきてなかったので、まだマシな部分を使って拭いたのですが、予算が無いと思うので、このように汚いタオルは足拭きマットかなにかに利用して、レンタルタオルは100均ショップかなんかで買って用意しておいてくださるようお願い申し上げます。

素泊まりだけなら旅慣れていたらok
夜、他の宿泊客の声や荷物の音がうるさすぎる(部屋の外)、部屋の空調が寒く、あまり寝れない。タオルやドライヤーなど有料。チェックインは1階のカフェみたいなカウンター、外国人スタッフ対応だったが、良かった。他の口コミもあるが、駅から徒歩3分くらいでアクセスは良いが、場所が入り組んでわかりづらい。

ソファーつきのダブルルームに宿泊しました。広さも十分で安眠できました。ゲストハウスなれしてる人向けかもしれません。全体的に清潔で、とても快適でした。

カフェとして見つけてホテルとして利用しましたが、予約のミスをしてしまったのにも関わらず、迅速で丁寧な対応をしていただき、設備なども綺麗で大変満足致しました。 オススメの場所です。 次回はカフェとしても利用したいと思っています。 --- I discovered this place as a café but used it as a hotel. Despite a mistake with my reservation, the staff responded quickly and courteously. The facilities were clean, and I was very satisfied. I highly recommend this place. Next time, I would like to use it as a café as well.
