They kindly listened to everything from the preliminary consultation to the whole stay. It seems like a lot of foreigners use it, but the room was clean and I stayed there for two nights without any complaints.It was a hotel that I would like to use again!It's about a 15 minute walk from the station, but it's easy to get anywhere and there are many taxis available. There were many convenience stores and takoyaki shops nearby. At night, the street was relatively quiet and I didn't hear any noise.

I took advantage of my children's summer vacation to go on a trip to Osaka.The interior was stylish and the cleaning was thorough.The location was perfect for sightseeing and eating out.When I asked questions via chat, they responded kindly, politely, and smoothly.There is also a kitchen, refrigerator, and washing machine, making it very convenient for long-term stays.The next time I go to Osaka, I would definitely like to stay at this hotel again.

While this hotel is more like an airbnb, it is an amazing place for the price. When the staff are available, they are extremely helpful and have great recommendations. The room was also perfect, even though the bathroom is small, it's functional (with nice bidet), but the tub was a joke (lol, i'm 6'2). I booked the balcony studio with a kitchen and washing machine, which came in handy. I was pleasantly surprised, and it's in a great location close to the fun but not too close that you hear noise. I will be returning as this place has everything, and the kitchen comes stocked with supplies and a microwave. It felt like I was back home!

I booked a sixbed room for my family (2 adults and 3 kids) really nice family room with a nice round table and 4 chairs.And at a very good price. Staff was the most friendly I’ve met in the 4 weeks in Japan. 5-10 minute walk from Dontonbori streets. In my opinion one of the best places in Osaka. If I go to Osaka again I would most likely use NICO again.
