Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is quite ideal for exploring Kyoto and enjoying food trips in Namba and the surrounding area. The rooms, while a bit small and stuffy for two people, offer basic comfort. The service was friendly and prompt. The dining options were decent with a standard buffet but lacked variety. Easy access to public transport and dining places nearby makes it convenient. However, the rooms are slightly cramped and lack adequate space for movement.
The hotel is conveniently located near Yodoyabashi subway station, making it easy to explore Osaka attractions. The service is accommodating and provides easy access to the subway. The dining options offer a variety of Japanese dishes, but the air-conditioning cannot be adjusted. Overall, a decent stay with a few drawbacks.
The hotel is conveniently located near the Yodoyabashi subway station, making it easy to get around. The rooms are on the smaller side, and some may find them stuffy if the window isn't opened. The service is friendly and accommodating, although language barriers may arise. The dining options around the hotel are varied, offering a range of choices for guests.
The hotel rooms were all class even compared to other hotels in Japan, though the bed was too small to fit both of us comfortably, especially for the price of 17.000 yen per night. The service, particularly during my first day's breakfast, was a bit rude, and the owner was unhelpful when I asked for an umbrella on rainy days. However, the location was fantastic being easily reachable from the local train station and close to Dotonbori. The dining experience was splendid, with an extensive buffet of hot/cold East/West food and excellent quality and variety throughout the week.
