The property was so filthy. I had to sleep with the lights on. This place was disgusting. The toilet had layers of filth. The bedroom floor felt like it would break at any minute. The most disgusting hotel I experienced in all of Japan. I was not expecting such an awful experience while visiting this country. Spend the extra money for a better experience. I spent $10 more and got a much better room.

I was taken back at how different the hotel appeared compared to the photos. It was easy to find especially if you are traveling by train as it is walking distance from the train station. The staff weren’t mean at all. Inside the hotel there is a subtle moldy smell. The room smells just as bad, but the worst part was the bed. The beds are uncomfortable to sleep on and the sheets are stained although it appeared to be washed. The bathrooms are shared amongst everyone on your floor and also looked very shabby. I’m not the type of person to complain either. I laid on the brick hard bed but staying awake, I couldn’t take it anymore. I got up at 4am, returned my key and walked out to look for another stay. Sadly I didn’t get my refund even tho they were very dishonest with how they advertised it. I managed to find a capsule hotel that was 10x better and only $10-$20 more per night. If I can’t even sleep there then what am I paying for? A charity hotel?

This is a perfect place for real backpackers and is the most affordable option in osaka. I can’t believe the negative reviews. Who pays so little and then writes a bad review for this place. It came with everything a person needs for an affordable price. Shampoo soap towels private showers sheets pillow and privacy many hotels dont even have these things. For the price id say 10/10

1. Requested non smoking and yet were placed directly beside a smoking area, so our room stunk. We literally had to go buy air fresheners to make our room marginally comfortable to breathe in. 2. Amenities were so I credibly dirty. Shocked at the condition of the bathroom and shower area. 3. The beds were unbelievably uncomfortable. I've slept fine on futons before, this was the thinnest mattress I've ever seen. It was also stained with who knows what. Never ever stay here

The room was basic but had everything I needed in a room, the common bathrooms at the lower floors are slightly inconvenient but I can't complain much as the room prices are very affordable and spacious for the money. Might stay here again if I'm in Osaka. One of the hotel staff is able to speak in basic English so it will be convenient for foreign guests.

The worst hotel I ever been to
1. The hotel was extremely dirty, the room walls had a lot of stains and it smell very bad, I had to buy an air freshener, the bathroom smell was horrible, and the shower room had a lot of fungus 2. I found insects on my room, when I told the staff about that so that they fumigate, they only gave me an insecticide for me to do it on my own. 3. Some Horrible staff, specially the woman, one day while I was sleeping she started knocking on my door very loudly and I woke up, she said that I had to leave the hotel, when I show her that I still had one night left she barely said sorry and then she walked away

The hotel has an old, faded ambience from generations ago, but everything stlll works well and the single rooms with AC and fridge offer good value for money - as long as you don't need fancy design or modern surroundings
