My worst experience in a APA hotel unfortunately. My room was the tiniest as possible and it got hot. They control the AC so in winter time they won’t allow you to use the cool mode. I had to leave the window open. The is ok but very small. It’s well located by the metro station just downstairs but with no elevator or escalator so let me tell you with your suitcases you will feel it. I couldn’t experience thr restaurant at the top because it was closes or fully reserved. The one downstairs is good and healthy. All restaurants are very strict on time. Outside of the window opening you won’t have your breakfast. The staff was not helpful with my ac situation and when i lost my receipt to log inin their system…

During cooler seasons many hotels in Japan including this one turn off their central AC to save energy. I and I’m sure many other people still prefer a cool room. Unfortunately because the AC was turned off the room was always hot and when I talked to the staff they simply tell you to open the window which only allows so much air to come in. I feel that if you pay for the room you should be able to have full control over things like that. At night I would constantly toss and turn because of the warm temperature.

Very convenient area close to the subway. Staff were super customer service and went over and above what i would expect.

Near the subway but far from both dotonbori and Umeda so had to rely on it. Bed was extremely uncomfortable. Spa is ok but tiny The room was the smallest I’ve ever been in and I paid the most for the entire trip. Totally not worth it
