    The room didn't have enough space to store or luggage that wasn't in the way

    Staff are friendly and patient. Need was comfortable, and all the amenities provided were a good standard.

    It is a biiiit of a walk to the closest metro station, around 12 minutes. Wasn’t a problem for us, but might be for some people.

    It was clean and comfortable. There is also an onsen (people with tattoos can use it , if they cover the tattoos). The location is in Umeda, which is a very cool district.

    Nearest public transport and shops were at 5-10 min walking distance.

    Great hotel in Umeda. Tasty breakfast buffet with a lot of japanese options. Also free public bath (men and women separate). Room was clean, quite small, but this seems to be standard in Japan. In the hallway there is free cold water, and the option to use washing machines was convenient.

    We did not fully understand how room cleaning is functioning. I think it cloud be briefly explained during check in. Also, vending machines are weird. They only vash for 30 minutes. When I added more money with attention to prolong the time, it just took it and did nothing.  So, I needed to add more money again after it finished. As I see everybody was starting mashine twice because of the short cleaning time.

    I like location of hotel. It is near Umeda Station. Streets around the hotel are lively with a bunch of restaurants and shops. Room was fine, sink in bathroom could be bigger.  Breakfast was ok.

    But theres a distance issue for us to travel either JR station or Metro station to the hotel, and we’re accompanying with elderly, which find hard to walk to.

    Hospitality from the staff is the best. Breakfast was also delicious. I love hotel has provided large public bath.

    It took us more than 10 minutes to walk from the closest Metro station to the hotel, which I knew before I reserved the rooms. The weather was too hot so we took a taxi instead. If you would like to visit Osaka in the summer, please take note of it before making reservations.

    The hotel was newly renovated. The staff members were professional and friendly. You could find convenience stores nearby. It was very convenient that we could reserve for breakfast on some specific days, which was flexible.

    The rooms were not very clean. The box with charging ports were dusty, there was also a thick layer of dust above the fridge. Carpet isn't vacuumed properly as when we combined 2 beds, there were litters which indicates that cleaning is not done thoroughly.

    Hotel offers a selection of skin and bath products in sachets at the lobby.

    Not much really... at this point it is small details... water bottles in the room would be nice. The tv is quite old and does not allow streaming services (i.e. netflix) to be used. Got used to getting our bags brought to our room when we left them prior to check-in. DETAILS only to make perfect.

    Staff was very nice. Free drink machines in the small venue near the lobby (coffee, tea, soda, water, etc.). Rooms were large, clean and had everything required. Laundry on the 2nd floor is very nice to have. 10-15 mins from Osaka station by foot.
