The property is on the older, but very functionable. It was great having 3 bedrooms for a family of 5 and there were attractions, supermarkets, transport and restaurants very close-by. It is approx 30mins away from central Osaka by train. There was a washing machine but no drying facility other than the balcony. The TV only supported local TV and we were unable to connect our laptop to it. We had an incident on check-in whereby there was another family in our room. They got the room numbers confused and managed to enter our apartment with their code. Luckily we were both staying for 3 nights and simply swapped rooms, both of us notifying the facility of the mishap and we had the booking details swapped. Communication from the property was excellent and they were very quick to respond.

I loved this place. I was skeptical as I am not a city girl. But I left our rental car in the parking (which is behind the building FYI don't make the mistake and pay for parking up front!) and hopped on the train as it was only one block away. Wow I became addicted to the trains after this. I loved it. There is a nice wagyu restaurant (izakaya) near by "Chikko Yokocho"

Spacious and perfectly located!

Very spacious. In an excellent location to walk to the Osaka Aquarium (and adjoining shopping). Walked to the ferry and crossed the waters to Universal Studios Japan - it was perfect!! The only (minor) shortfall is the washing machine. Compared to the other places I stayed at with an all-in-one (I may have been spoiled by those), this unit has a top load washer.
