On the day we went, the owner came to welcome us using Thai. Coming to Japan for the first time, I still don't know where to start. Luckily, he can speak Thai too and can live easily. If I come to Osaka again, I will definitely stay at the same place. Highly recommended. Easy to travel, close to convenience stores.

Hard to complain about a hostel at this price point. You get what you pay for. The room was more spacious than some other hostels which is great. Everything is made really cheaply including the bed which is made of plywood so not very comfortable. The room was clean, so where the showers but the toilets could use cleaning more than once a day because of the amount of people. Not every floor has a toilet for each gender.The location is convenient. However it is located in one of the „roughest“ neighbourhoods in the city and probably all of Japan. Being Japan this means it is not actually dangerous or comparable to bad neighbourhoods in other countries. I would advise anyone however to read about the surprisingly dark history of this area. While a lot has changed here in the last 10-15 years, it is still a very poor neighbourhood that has recently been „overrun“ by tourists. Keep that in mind and be respectful to the people living around here. Also do not be surprised to experience a Japan that you might not have believed even existed. There a many great cheap restaurants with lovely people in the area, if you treat them with respect you can have a great time.

Price 2.5 -3 It's cheap so it's worth it, but pay a little more~~^^Anyone who sees a cockroach, buy a lottery ticketThe bathroom shower is outside the room. The soundproofing is not good and it feels like a school trip.

The price/performance ratio is super high. For a hotel in this location (it’s not really a hotel, it’s a bit like a capsule hotel.) the sanitary environment is pretty good. The only drawback is the stratification of men's and women's toilets

There is a cockroach in the room. This the the third month I stayed in Japan, and the only place that have cockroach in it.The air conditioning unit is dripping. Luckily my electric appliances were not near it when I realised.Others are written in descriptions, shared bathrooms and showering rooms. Your room only has beds, kettle(1) is shared in common area. They provided ear buds because the sound proving is horrible.Worst place I stayed. If you don’t mind the above issues it was nice for a cheap price.It was my fault that I picked this place, don’t be me.no refunds too. Silly me.

Considering it's very affordable it's good. However, the first room allocated to us smelled of cigarettes and we had to insist on being able to change rooms. In addition, the cleaning of common areas leaves something to be desired. The location is good for public transportation and close to Namba. It is a disadvantaged area, which should be taken into account when traveling in the evening.

Impossible!There is no pillowcase! There was a towel of the wrong size!What a hotel!When I turned the pillow over, it was covered with dirt and I was very worried about putting my head on it.I would not recommend this hotel.

My room was on the 8th floor, but there were cockroaches.I think it can't be helped since they are probably cutting labor costs to the bare minimum, so accommodation costs are low, but I wish they had taken at least some insect-proofing measures considering the location.There are no staff at night, and there are no extension phones, so you have to deal with it yourself.It seems like it's only a matter of time before bed bugs appear.I would like to warn you not to use it again or to refrain from using it.
