There were no shelves or places to put your stuff. Everything had to be on the floor. Only 3 hangers for 3 people and no hooks to hang towels in the washroom. You have to pay 2200 yen to use the big spa bath where other hotels are usually free. The hotel is clean and good location.

The hotel was clean and staff was wonderful. The rooms were small but ver clean and comfortable. Everything you could need is close by. The train station is just feet away and universal studios is as well. Starbucks and 7-11 also super close. The aquarium is just a short taxi ride away and Osaka city shopping just 20min on the train.

My family loved staying at this hotel. Location was perfect. The park and City Walk was accessible through the hotel's back entrance. Also staff was friendly and helpful upon our arrival. They helped us check in early for a nominal fee--which I really appreciated after a long day of travel.

Jr station is just right there so very convenient to get around. Only bad thing to say was it is jr rail so we needed the metro pass to get access to the other osaka lines but nevertheless it was still convenient. Also very cool is its close to the harbor for captain line for a 10 min ferry ride across the river to the aquarium and the tempozan market
