I intended to book spacious hotels during our trip to Japan, and this hotel exceeded my expectations—it was very spacious. My teens and I were wowed the moment we opened the room door. It felt like a one-bedroom apartment. Everything was brand new. There was plenty of space for our large suitcases—we had four.
We really enjoyed the fully equipped kitchen with a large sink, a big bathroom, and a round table with three chairs. Each night when we returned, it felt like coming back home—very comfortable. There was also a nice balcony with a view.
The complimentary breakfast was very good, and the staff were helpful with plenty of supplies provided. I especially loved the bathroom’s heating system.
Although the washing machine was a small top-loader, I was able to dry my clothes either in the shower room or on the rooftop—everything dried in one day, much less hassle than another hotel we stayed at in Tokyo.
Overall, we loved this hotel. The location required a bit of walking—about 8–10 minutes to Namba Station—but we were okay with that. I would gladly choose a spacious room like this over a small, cramped one right next to a station.
Also, having a 7-Eleven right across the street was a huge plus!
