Kind of an awkward spot for staying in Osaka, not close to any shopping/food hubs. But does have quite a lot of smaller restaurants around it that are really good. The biggest gripes are the lack of amenities(it’s a smaller hotel, failure to prepare on my end) and the only having one elevator. Sounds picky, but for a popular area, only having one elevator got annoying fast. Other than that, staff are nice and efficient, and the rooms are great for the price!

Room is kind of dusty. My girlfriend was itchy all the time. Other than that, it is as good as my previous visit.

Location was not bad. One thing to note is there are many APA Hotels in the area with a similar name. Make sure you have the right one saved when navigating to and from the hotel. Whilst they are all relatively near each other, it’s always handy to know which one is your temporary “home”.

Great hotel, amazing staff

This hotel does a lot of work with a small space, yielding good value for budget travelers. You can be safe and clean in the center of this vibrant bustling city for a price far below nearly any city in Europe, the USA, Australia or NZ. In exchage for living in a very compact room (or larger if you pay extra for more beds) you get: Clean premises and new or like-new functional elements, & an ice machine (or "ice engine") is available. Nearby, you may want to explore a spectacular Buddhist temple. Also in adjacent streets there are many varieties of restaurants and izakaya, self-service coin laundry in the hotel or on a nearby street, museums and many excellent transportation options to get around and beyond Osaka. Efficiency and automation are the key to this hotel, and the staff will help you competently in Japanese or English if you need help. This neighborhood is part of an area once known as regional hub for pharmacy companies, a tradition still carried on by some large pharma companies today. As a result, the neighborhood hosts relatively well-paid professionals, but not as many tourists as the famous districts in Osaka. The vibe is business/professional, tidy quiet and well-organized. I saw two police officers on bicycle patrol, a wonderful example of simple and efficient solution to the problem of solving the final 5 percent of social problems in this city that effective cultural education and personal citizen responsibility do not fully cover.

Hotel is in a very good location. Not for from the subway station and good coffee shops nearby. However, rooms are very small. Me and my husband had to change to a twin room just to get our luggage in as there was hardly any space to walk about in the double room. Rooms are nice and clean

About 8-10 min walk from the closest metro station. Quite a way if you did whole day walking. The rooms are extremely small, just enough space to make a step from the bed to the wall… the bathroom is as small as a small closet. The staff at the front desk not very friendly… we arrived at 2:45pm… they asked us to wait until 3pm to check in. When asked for recommendations or directions told us to use Google map. One thing was amazing is how clean the property is. Cleaning staff are doing a really good job!

Nice place

Thank you for a pleasant stay

Rooms: Dusty with some sort of weird vent that blows cold air from outside (in the middle of winter!) into the room nearly directly above the bed. Service: They don't clean at all other than changing towels and linens. The room clearly hasn't been vacuum or dusted, possibly ever. I tested out whether they clean by noting where the dust, hair, and other dirt was. The day they "cleaned" the room, all the dirt was still in the same places. They also don't replace the amenities properly. I use hair ties but half the time they aren't replaced even after they've "cleaned" the room. Location: quiet which is nice but far from subway and attractions Building: only 1 elevator for the entire hotel which has 14 floors, so it can take a while to use it and be crowded. The maids leave the doors in the hallways to the outside open the entire time they clean the floor; meaning hours of winter cold coming down the hallway and into the rooms. Bottom line: this hotel is worse than other APA hotels
