My family and I recently stayed at a hotel in one of Osaka's best nightlife areas, and it was a fantastic experience. Despite its prime location, the street where the hotel is situated is surprisingly quiet and not congested, allowing for a peaceful night's sleep.
The hotel itself is not overly luxurious or flashy, but it embodies the idea that simplicity can be elegant. One of the standout features is the coin laundry on the second floor. For just 500 yen, we could wash our clothes, which was a lifesaver during our two-week trip.
The rooms were spacious and comfortable, super clean, and equipped with a small refrigerator. The toilet being in a separate room from the bathroom was incredibly convenient.
One drawback was the gym. It's quite small, with just one multi-equipment machine and a few treadmills. For someone who exercises daily, it's not ideal, but it didn't detract from our overall experience.
In terms of service, it was excellent, consistent with the high standards we've come to expect from hotels in Japan. Overall, I would rate this hotel 5 stars for its combination of location, cleanliness, and convenience.
