The amenities like the spa and laundry room were great. The double room we got is quite small, barely big enough to fit two people. We had to put our luggages under the bed. Normally that would be okay if we had a dresser to put our clothes but there were none.

This hotel is lovely and in a convenient location but all amenities were an extra fee! exept for the public bath, all other services were an extra cost like the pool! It was just dissapointing that we have paid for the room and that was it. The pool was about 15AUD per visit unless it was after 7pm which put it up to 25AUD per visit! It was just kind of a shock, and they were very onto people who didnt pay to use the pool as well. While we were there a lady got kicked out of the pool area with her young child beause she didnt want to pay to use the pool. And for the price you pay the pool is Very underwhelming. It is just a bit bigger than a spa. Apart from that thw rest of the hotel is lovely and my brother got a massage in hia room for a very lovely gentleman who did a very good job.

Staff not friendly. A check in staff provided confusing and contradictory information; the staff had just told me that he was going to upgrade me to a better room with view for free since I had paid a higher rate; then, a minute later, told me that there was no room at all for change or upgrade.

Small rooms

Nice location, convenient to train and metro, great ac. Room was really small. Luggage had to go under bed. Check in was automated. No personal contact. Elevator lines super long at night. Extra charges for pool, hot tub, and gym. For four of us, we had to have connecting rooms. Wouldn’t be good with small children.

Walking distance to all the markets you will want to visit and more food options then you can imagine in surounding neighborhood! A breathtaking roof view! 7eleven on 4th floor with laundromat and Guest only public baths. Proximity to subway to connect to rest of Japan and or to get to the landmarks. Possibility of adjoining rooms if you want to travel with family... friends... kids. Will be returning and referring....

I will start with the good. The property is very clean, excellent location and the AC is cold. Very very easy to get to from Osaka airport, just grab the limousine bus and your basically there. However, they advertise a swimming pool and hot tub. But hold up, the swimming pool costs extra and is not open until the 4th of July! The hot tub is also not a hot tub but a kiddie pool! So be warned! We had grabbed this place for those amenities and when we realized what they were we were disappointed.
