Comfy beds in this unexpected night stay!

We had to find a place on the very night of our stay since we missed the shinkansen to go back to Tokyo! This tiny hostel is kinda far from Shin-Osaka Station, especially with all the luggage we had to carry, but we were warmly welcomed. It was a bit like a maze inside, which I personally liked (it had a lot of character and our stop there made for a fun bit of adventure to tell!). We slept soundly: the place was very clean, the shower's water was hot, the room was even kinda spacious for japanese accomodation standards! And, most important of all... the beds were extra comfy! Thank you!

Great place, close to metro, INCREDIBLE HOST!!

The house is in a kind of traditional Japanese style with sliding doors, a nice high-tech toilet, and comfortable showers. There is also a kitchen and a living room that can be during the day. Kei, the host, is always available if you need him. He was extremely accommodating. On our way to his place, we had lost our phone on the subway. He immediately took down a detailed account of what happened and advised us on what to do. The next day, he made a call to the subway station on our behalf (we don't speak Japanese) and over the course of the next couple days, gave us continuous updates on the situation. He finally tracked down the phone to a lost and found office in a particular metro station in the city where we went and picked it up! We thought we had lost it for good! Would definitely stay here again, no question.

Lovely little hostel

My brother and I stayed here for 3/4 nights at the end of February. It is extremely welcoming, the staff were super friendly. At this point of the trip we were trying to save some money, this place was perfect for this as it had good kitchen facilities and a big supermarket close by. There was also a launderette around the corner. Although not super close to transport, the metro was under a 10 minute walk away and Shin-Osaka train station about 15 minutes. This was perfect for us as we had already visited Osaka earlier in our trip and used this place as a base to go out to different cities from Shin-Osaka station everyday. It worked out perfectly. Would highly recommend, for a cosy, homely feeling place.

Friendly Hostel

The staff are so friendly! If you want the experience of staying in a Japanese house, as opposed to a hotel or a capsule hotel, this is a great place. The beds were comfortable (they have futons too, which I would have preferred, but I booked late). They also had a communal basket of shampoo and soaps as well as towels, which is always a plus in hostels. I wish we were staying longer. This is a great hostel if you just need a place to stay (not a full scale hotel) as you are passing through or sightseeing in Osaka. I usually stay in business hotels, but opted for this hostel during a transfer through Osaka since it was cheaper. Just a heads up, it is a bit of a walk from Shin Osaka (NOT the same thing as Osaka station), so having directions printed out (or on your phone) is helpful. We took a cab (about 1000 yen from Shin Osaka) simply because it was late and we were lazy, but the walk back to the station in the morning was easy.

Nice hostel with many amenities 참 괜찮은 곳이에요!

Stayed five nights for Kansai tour. I fully enjoyed my stay here. There were many amenities including towels, bath, kitchen et cetra. The staff was so very nice that I could get all information I wanted. Around 8 minutes by walk to Nishinakajimaminami station of Midosuji underground line. Also Minamikata station, too. This red Midosuji line is highly recommended and convenient to look around Kansai area. 주요관광지를 방문하기 아주 편한 미도스지선 역주변이고 편의점과 슈퍼도 역에서 가까웠어요! 무엇보다 주인분이 정말 친절하셔서 지내는 내내 마음이 편했어요. 규모가 크지않고 방이 세개정도라 조용히 지낼수 있어서 더 만족스러웠습니다. 수건이나 치약, 칫솔, 드라이기 등도 비치되어있고 공짜고 샴푸, 린스도 다 있었어요! 정~말 정말 좋았어요!

ありがとうございました！

夜遅くのチェックインでしたが、連絡の迅速さがありがたかったです。また、夜間の移動でかなり寒かったのですが、お部屋に入ると布団が敷いてあり、更に暖房まで入っていてすごく助かりました！外国の方がほとんどの利用者で本当にゲストハウスって感じでした。今回子どもの七五三のための遠方からの宿泊だったため素泊まりだったので良かったですが、がっつりお昼ごろからチェックインとなると、普通の家をゲストハウスにしている様子なので壁一枚隣が他の方の利用者で騒音など非常に気を遣います。また、一階は外の部屋以外部屋の番号が書いてなかったので間違えてトイレかと思い開けてしまいました。中の方が寝ていたので気づかれずに済みましたが、部屋の番号を書いて頂けると有り難いです(T ^ T)ですので総合評価星四つとしました！
