Doutonbori Apartment review

The location was very good - close by Dotonbori. It is also very convenient to both Namba Subway and Nippombashi station - about 5-7 mins walk. Check in instruction was easy although we took quite a while to find the apartment. The apartment we had was a 3 bedroom with a small kitchen area, a toilet and a separate shower. It also comes with a washing machine. You can carry the home wifi as a pocket wifi but with limited data usage but as we rented an unlimited wifi, it was OK for us to leave it at the apartment. The actual apartment is suitable for 5 persons and the only concern was it can be a little noisy at night with the karaoke bar nearby. But overall, I think this is a good apartment which fulfill your most basic needs. There is an elevator to our apartment at 5th floor.

We, 3 adults with 1 kid, have stayed in one-bedroom apartment (4A). The overall apartment is very impressive, very clean and new. Location also tremendous, very close to subway, Nippombashi and Namba. Apartment is surrounded by restaurants and shopping area, closed to Glico sign. We all have great experience here, and wish to come back again.

숙소가 너무 귀여웠습니다. 정말 현지인들이 사시는 집처럼 아기자기했어요. 그리고 도톤보리랑 너무 가까워서 좋았습니다. 시설 밑에 스시집이 있는데 거기도 생각보다 맛있었고 주변에 편의점이 다양하게 많아서 특히 더 마음에 들었습니다. 다음에 오사카에 간다면 한 번 더 여기에 예약하고 싶네요:)

I really love this room - 4B for 5 ppl. Location is Superb!! It’s in the middle of Namba.Only 7-10mins walk to Glico sign. And very closed to Nippombashi station. Lawson is located on the right hand side of this apartment around 300m walk. Owner is very good English speaker. He always keep in touch with us until we checked out. Everything in the room is very convenience. Aircons are in every single room so no need to worried about the temperature. All the lights are dimable. Room is very clean and tidy. Highly recommended for this place !! See you again next time!!!
