It’s basically a youth hostel
Staff are foreigners
No one seems to know what is happening or when.
There 4 nights, no rubbish removed , no room serving, no towels.
Doesn’t matter what sigh you put on your door , no one takes any notice or responsibility.
On the positive
Bed was comfortable and shower had good pressure. Unfortunately that is it.

Excellent location for walking to Kuromon market and Dotonbori! Another plus is that it’s located between 2 subway stations. Would definitely stay again. My only gripe is my room did not have a towel rack/hook.

Poor value for money. Room floor dirty on arrival. Staff not as friendly and courteous as other Japan hotels we have stayed at.

Find a better hotel
I’m not a picky hotel snob, yet this place really under delivered on so many factors. Laundry list below:
- Shower faucet did not drain, so we had ankle deep water while showering
- Room was microscopic, even for Japan standards. Not suitable for couples or anyone taller than 6 foot 2 inches.
- Bathroom is the size of an airplane bathroom
- Cleaning only once every 3 days
- Front desk is checked out and more or less clueless. Didn’t have basic information such as where to get luggage delivery service
- Worst part: there’s construction noises from 10-6pm, so don’t expect to sleep wel.
The only bright spots were its location and comfortable bed and bedding. Highly recommend finding a different hotel. I regret taking a chance on this one.
