Too far from Osaka

I telephoned the contact number the day before I arrived. I was given a padlock number. When I arrived at the guest house, I unlocked the padlock to discovered it was like a bedsit accommodation. It was not a guesthouse or even a hotel. There was nothing much to do in Kitanode and it took about 1.5 hours to get to Osaka. So all in all I wouldn't stay here again because it was too far out from Osaka and as I was on my own I felt isolated.

Good accommodations, meh neighborhood

The guy who runs the place speaks very little English and doesn't respond to emails, but it ends up working out if nothing goes wrong and there's no confusion. I had a bit of a runaround but that was my fault. The place is right next to the railroad tracks so there's a bit of sound at night, but it was spacious by japanese standards and well stocked. It had a full bath, which made me all kinds of happy. The heating wasn't really up to American standards, but a European who is used to wearing sweaters and whatnot indoors may not mind. Overall, I liked it and it was one of my favorite places to stay in Japan, but I could easily see it being a bad experience for someone who is more sensitive to neighborhood factors. It's a 480 yen ride each way from Namba station, which effectively means that for most people you're going to spend a few more bucks a night here than other places, and there aren't a lot of restaurant etc options nearby, either. That said, the place itself is pretty nice.

不快

前の道が舗装されておらず坂道だらけの立地。コインパーキングからも遠く部屋がエレベーター無しの三階だったので階段を荷物を持って上がるのが大変でした。 部屋も布団、床、浴室等に髪の毛ホコリ カーペットは染みが有りスゴく不快な気持ちで過ごし外出する際も 一々南京錠をかけて外出しなければならず不便でした。 まさしく民泊のワンルームです。

간사이공항에서 난카이선을 타고 텐카자야에서 환승하여 키타노다역까지 40분정도 걸리는 교통의 편리성과, 일반적인 풀옵션 원룸에 가깝다는 점. 전철역과 슈퍼가 5분거리에 있어서 시내로의 이동과, 맛집탐방이 아니라면, 식사하는데 불편하지 않음. 어차피 눈 뜨면 나가니까..ㅋ 럭셔리와는 거리가 멀지만, 실용성은 굿!!

主人很用心的準備一些細節上的東西,而且可以煮超商買回來的食物,民宿在北野田車站旁,離超商很,很乾淨。幾乎所有需要用到的用品督幫你準備好了,若有考慮一家三口到大阪玩,想省一點住宿錢,不怕多一點點交通時間的話,我非常推薦住這裡。

自宅でくつろげるような感じ

関空への前泊で利用しました。初めての利用で迷ってしまいましたが、スタッフの方が宿の玄関先で声を掛けてくれたおかげで助かりました。  レジデンスの一室を借りることができるので一人では十分な広さでした。       部屋はまあまあ清潔、洗濯機、簡易キッチンもあり必要最低限のキッチン用品、調味料もあるので長期滞在には向いていると思います。wifi無料で使えました。共同ではなく個室ですのでくつろげました。                      最寄駅から途中は坂や階段があるのでスーツケースを持って歩くのは疲れましたが快適だったのでまた関空利用の際は宿泊してもいいかなと思いました。   スタッフのお兄さんが親切で重いスーツケースを持って3階まで持って行ってくれました。ありがとうございました。
