Definitely a good overall stay, only went back to sleep so it wasn’t too bad but the sheets did give a bit of a weird smell. For the price though I wasn’t complaining much and would use again.

Loved it! Very nice place to stay!

The hostel was great! Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was small but beds were big and it was all the space you needed. Showers upstairs were spotless and very nice. Great place to stay and very affordable!

Excellent hostel. Even though there were lots of people in my room the beds are separated so well with 'wooden walls' that you don't really hear the other people. Clean place, nice staff and generally a fantastic hostel. One of the top 10 I've been to, (and I've stayed in many).

良く眠れました

コロナ禍以降初めての大阪泊で、前回泊まった似たようなドミトリー式ホテルより設備は劣るのに倍以上の価格で、インバウンドや万博で需要が桁違いな上に物価もあがり、時代が変わったんだなあと感慨した。 狭くとも清潔だし空調も効いてるし良く眠れました。

共用ドミトリーは掃除はちゃんとしてあるんですが、構造上どうしても天気が悪い日は壁側が若干湿気を感じるので、ハンディファンを持っていき、換気を確保して寝泊まりしていました。 宿に関しては基本不満は無かったです。シャワールームも綺麗だし使いやすかったですし。 台所もガス火なので、料理すごくし易いんですよね。生活はすごいしやすいです。 費用はかなり抑え目なのに、全体的に清潔なので、地域性を考えても泊まりやすく、短期間でリピートしてしまいました。 今回は日中の出入りも多かったのですが、変なルート行かなければ、そこまで変な場所では無いです。少なくともここの宿は、JR新今宮方面からだと変なトラブルに巻き込まれることはまず無いでしょう。 逆に早朝行動があった自分は、男で仕事道具も持ってたからか、日雇いのお誘いもかかることはありましたが……まあそちらも理解があれば、やんわり断ればいいので、治安云々は気にしなかったですね。 ダウンタウンではありますが。

シャワールームは広くて使いやすいです。 また耳栓が置いてあるのはとても良かったです。 寝室はベッドまで土足ということもあり、あまり綺麗ではないです。シーツも被せるだけなのであまり衛生的ではないです。 リビングなどはかっこよく今風で自由な感じで使いやすいです。 綺麗好きにはお勧めできませんが、ドミトリーをよく利用する人は特に気にならないと思います。 海外の方もいて楽しく過ごせます。
