Great hotel at affordable price and great location
There were hardly any space between the desk and the bed, which made using the chair and the desk uncomfortable, and not really doable.
Otherwise the room held the general APA hotells standard. Great simple rooms at a resonable price. They have everything one needs.
I think the location is great. Going places couldn't be more convenient with a tube entrance just outside the hotell. Namba and other destinations reachable within 30 min.
I wasn't able to use the bath because of a wound, but I would have appreciated the bath otherwise. It's just great.
I noticed that noice isolation is quite poor (isolation from traffic and such), so maybe consider the higher floors.

Could be better
Overall a good stay with easy to access train station directly in front of hotel entrance. Biggest issue was the very badly orientation of the furniture was extremely cramped and uncomfortable. Due to fear of damaging furniture I was unable to move anything and had to deal with the poorly designed room.

Disappointed for the first time
The staff were helpful and friendly as usual across the APA brand of hotels. They were very efficient in assisting customers to check in and check out. Location was handy and easy to go about. But there were cockroaches crawling on the desk and mirror at night even my room was on the 19th floor. This wasn't something I would expected. Some large scale pest control has to be done as this would only be the tip of the iceberg. I was generally satisfied with my past experiences with APA but a bit disappointed this time around.

Nice Stay
Just needed a place to sleep during my solo trip and this hotel was very clean, but kind of small to move around. It was still manageable and I liked how there is a subway station right in front of the hotel so it is very convenient!

This was exactly what we're looking for. A nice room with a private bathroom and separate beds for my son and i. We also had a microwave, refrigerator, and induction cookware with plenty of dishes and even a rice cooker. The facility is obviously older so it's nothing fancy, but an excellent place for a longer-term stay. It's just a few minutes from the nearest metro station and there are many dining options all around. If that's not enough there's a lovely park with a walking trail just down the street.

The room felt dirty and cluttered with little room in general. Mood in shower. The check-in process was not smooth at all and originally staff were telling us they couldn’t find our reservation. Staff also refused to call us a taxi when leaving hotel.
