Overall, my stay at Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama was a pleasant one. The hotel offers a variety of convenient amenities that truly enhance the guest experience. From soothing bath salts to a selection of teas, razors, bath clothes, and a free coffee stand, the hotel goes above and beyond to ensure that guests have everything they need for a comfortable stay.The rooms at Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama are average in size, which is typical for accommodations in Japan. While they may be smaller than what some travelers from the US are accustomed to, the rooms are well-appointed and have all the necessary amenities. I appreciated the presence of a couch, refrigerator, massage pillow, and TV in my room, as they added to the overall comfort and convenience of my stay.One area where Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama could improve is the internet connection. During my stay, I experienced frequent disconnections while on video calls, which made it difficult to communicate effectively. Additionally, streaming video content proved to be a challenge, as even low-quality videos struggled to load properly. It seems that the hotel may have a preset setting to limit user data usage, which can lead to inconsistent and frustrating internet connectivity for guests.In conclusion, Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama is a lovely hotel with many positive attributes. The convenient amenities and comfortable rooms make for a pleasant stay, but the inconsistent internet connection is a notable drawback. I would recommend that the hotel address this issue to ensure that guests have a seamless and enjoyable experience during their stay. With some improvements in this area, Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama has the potential to be an even more inviting and accommodating destination for travelers.

The wifi is very slow. It should be a shared SSID for the whole building, no dedicated one, but otherwise it's pretty good.

The lift lobbies all had a puke inducing chemical smell. The rooms itself were okay.The location itself is quite close to Kitahama station. If you want to take the Midosuji line it’s a bit of a walk

When I returned to the hotel, I found the used condom bag on the floor. It was really disgusting and I was so dumbfounded. When I told the counter, she just said sorry and took it away. It was super disgusting. I was really unhappy. We had to pick it up and throw it away ourselves. Okay. Dumbfounded⋯⋯

Near Kitahama Station, the neighborhood is very quiet. The room space is limited, but the bathroom is very comfortable. There is a bathtub and shower. Each person has a large towel and a small towel. There is a coffee machine and drinking water in the lobby. You can also get tea bags, bath salts, etc. in the lobby. .

Good place, quite a nice breakfast. Strange thing is that they don't wash the cups when you ask for room cleaning.Very very very slow lifts.
