Sometimes we have barbecues in front of the store, but sometimes it's late until around 10pm, and there are customers who use the street and park in front as if it's theirs, and it's hard to get close to them because the smell seems to stick to their laundry, which is a nuisance. is.However, it smells delicious, so I would like it to be cooked a little closer to the edges.

I got this place for around 2980 yen and honestly I cannot complain. The staff especially Jen and Honoda were some of the friendliest I've ever met in Japan so far. And the staff in a hostel make all the difference if it's good or bad. Don't count on it but when I was there they offered us light snacks and drinks had I so chosen. The facilities, like the shower, bathroom, and resting areas were all clean. And the resting area felt like just the right amount of beds as to not overwhelm you. I will be honest my beds curtain drooped a tad but that's probably for the better to let the sunlight in. I only had two complaints which resulted in a loss of a star. #1, the sleeping area, although clean, had a feint strange smell, maybe a window needed to be open I'm not sure. My nose felt stuffy when I woke up too. This wasn't really a big deal I slept great the beds are awesome. But what isent awesome and I desperately ask the staff to resolve is the pillow. This pillow is the worst pillow I have ever slept on bar to none. I pretty much just put the big blanket underneath it so I can tolerate the nights sleep then sleep with the small blanket. If youre sleeping here, ask for an extra or two you'll thank me later

Don’t get me wrong I loved the hostel when I stayed there , the only thing that really bothered me was a worker name Sumera she was really inappropriate towards because I am jewish and from Israel , never encountered such hatred and antisemitism.If I was the hostel owner I wouldn’t hire her in the first place

Thick layer of dust, snot and nail clippings on the floor next to the bunk bed. A respectably sized patch of dried-up vomit on the underlayer mattress. The staff was nice, even the one who tried to scam me for 3000 yen even though the price on Agoda was around 2400.All in all, a classic Osaka experience, 10/10 will probably never return. It's an ok place to save money on a bed though.
