Cheapest place you can find in Osaka. No complaints about the price. The hotel has a lot of additional amenities to complement that price. For example they have a whole kitchen with refrigerator, stove and everything you need to make yourself any meal you want.
Highly recommended if you don't mind a bit dirty premises and just wanna have a place to sleep at night.

Great location, great staff, enjoyed my stay. The rooms have old stains but oh well. Would book again!
Very helpful and accommodating staff. The onsite baths and laundry we're above my expectations. I enjoyed the 24 hour access and how nearby it was to food and entertainment.

You get what you pay for. If you are looking for fancy, this isn't it. It's close to the metro, donki and Daiso. Good location, nice staff and no curfew.

It’s a pretty small room and not ideal for most people traveling with partners. They have larger rooms but I’m not sure how they are.
But for Osaka, it’s a really cheap hotel. It’s also in a great location by the Dōbutsuenmae subway station allowing you to get to Tennōji station quickly.
The staff is really nice and they try to help you out when you need it!

Good for the cost of stay in an old hotel. Room was clean, comfortable, quiet, with mini fridge, tv, self control remote heater ac, japan style comfortable futon on japanese straw mat floor. Bonus, 4 minutes walk to Spa World onsen.
Is better than what I thought. They have individual showers in 3 floors and also you can take a shower in the onsen if you want. So it's a good place to stay for a pair of days.

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.
My room had very stained walls, curtains, and bed spread. Bed and pillow very firm and uncomfortable. Not at all like the photos. The shower had a lot of rust stains. The common areas were dirty, dusty, stained and the furniture is so old it's uncomfortable. Staff was not friendly when I checked in/out. Air conditioner had dirt and mold inside it when i turned it on. Nearby area is fine. Location is good.

Hotel had lots of posters to suggest where to visit - traveller friendly. Not the cleanest
The staff was friendly and there was a lot of information about the surrounding areas all over the hotel. I didn't give it full stars because the bathroom areas weren't that clean. That said, it's in a great area, next to a few train stations and a lot of shopping. It's worth it.
Pros
1 You can stay multiple nights at a very reasonable price.
2 Convenient transportation
Cons
1 The baths are switched between men's and women's depending on the time.
2 The toilet in the room is flushable but there is no hot water in the bathroom.

The hotel room had stains on the wall and a tiny pillow that wasn’t greatly comfortable to use. The area is really good around it with immediate access to the subway line, and the free onsen is a nice plus, it is just the cleanliness thats the biggest issue I have. It’s good for what it is and especially the for the price.
The location is good to transit many iconic locations by train. However I didn't find the room pleasant. The wooden furniture were chipped, small fridge exposed dusty wires, walls not even sound proof and was given a pillow made of beads to sleep.

The room was relatively clean upon entry. I did not choose to have my room cleaned during my few days stay. Showers are available 24 /7. Complimentary hot water and cold drinking water in a small but workable kitchen..pots, a few bowls, common area fridge and small room fridge. Laundry on site. Spa with a few hours of access each day. Located right next to a train station. Only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the dryer didn't dry all my clothes after 80 minutes and i asked for a complimentary coin to finish the drying of 1 pants, and a few smaller items. The non-regular manager was there and refused.

This place is admittedly cheap but damn... all you get is a room with two beds (super uncomfortable), room kinda dirty, there's air-conditioning so that's fine but the toilet attached to the room only has icy cold water and no hand soap. A hotel without even soap? I asked for it as i thought it was a mistake but nope. No soap.
Location is good though. You should see at as just a place to sleep.
