Taken in July 2019. I went into a random place and was overall satisfied. I went there without knowing that it was a crime-ridden area, but it was prettier and better than Namba (now closed), and I can still see it today.

A highly recommended youth hostel❤️The rooms are clean, have night lights and lockers, and the transportation is convenient. There are many supermarkets nearby. There is a main road when you go out. Although self-service check-in is available, there will still be someone to assist you when you press the service bell.

It's an old building that has been renovated, so the inside of the room doesn't look very old.I guess it's a hotel just for sleeping.There are no tea sets, refrigerators, or major amenities.We rented towels and yukatas, so we bought towels from 100 yen shops and nightwear from UNIQLO.The only good thing was that there were outlets near the bedside for each person.Five people stayed in a Japanese-style room.I also wanted slippers in the bathroom and a towel.Does that mean it's cheaper?If you just want to sleep, the location is probably good if you want to play around Tennoji.Just sleep, okay?
