The camp is great. The metro station is right next to it. Room was clean and there were fresh towels every day. The only problem was that you couldn't ventilate and after a while it became very stuffy. Room was also very small.

For our stay in Osaka, the location and price were the most important criteria and these were met here.Daikokucho Metro Station can be reached within a minute. Family Mart directly opposite.Room was clean, but not cleaned, which surprised us. There is no view and we didn't discover a way to ventilate the room.

4/5
3 nights with a foreign tourist. It takes less than 5 minutes from the Daikokucho Station platform to the hotel entrance. It takes less than 15 minutes to reach the room from around the Dotonbori Glico signboard. Sukiya, Family Mart, and Origin Bento are all within a 1-minute walk, so you can quickly and easily procure meals and daily necessities. In the room, priority is given to business functions. Just sleeping is enough. VOD available for free viewing. Other comments point out things like dust, hair, and poor cleaning, but after cleaning our room a total of 9 times, there was no problem at all. It would be foolish to demand high-end services at APA prices. All the staff were nice. The air conditioning works well, and I'm happy with the attention to detail, such as the shower opening facing the wall so that the water comes out first. The hardness of the bed is also perfect.

The elevators for customers and employees are the same, so there is some conflict with the cleaning staff, but the rooms are clean. Best of all, it's in a great location where you can ride the subway without needing an umbrella. There is a family mart in front of me. The windows are frosted glass and there is no view. It's a bit disappointing that I can't even open it.

The location is perfect, just a few seconds from the exit of Daikokucho Station on the Midosuji Subway Line. The room is small and you can't open your suitcase, but if you're on a business trip or traveling alone, this is what you need. Not suitable for family trips etc. The hotel staff's response was pleasant and wonderful. The only thing I was disappointed about was that I had breakfast at the offal yakiniku restaurant on the first floor, but it smelled like yakiniku...well, I can stand it, but the BGM was so loud with hip-hop music that it was annoying...it's just the taste of the yakiniku restaurant staff. However, I wanted to eat breakfast in peace and quiet. The food was delicious, so I guess the BGM was okay...but overall I had a comfortable time! Thank you to all the staff!
