This hotel has everything you need. Onsen, pool (was closed), 7-11, ATM, public laundry area, etc. the room is cleaned everyday. Very small but they provide everything you need. There’s no view, your view will be internal building. So it’s a place just to sleep and go out to explore. Close to the station.

The facilities of this hotel is really beyond words! However if they could improve their bedding and pillow it would be perfect. I had stiff neck due to the soft pillow and sunken mattress… my room was the corner room with sliding door, the door doesn’t sound proof at all, I can hear all the noises at night. I’m puzzled as hotel can spend so much on their facilities like onsen etc, why can’t they provide proper bed and sound proof door

Small room, but clean. Luggages have to be placed under the bed if you want to have a little bit of walking space. The elevator system irritated us so many times. It’s so unefficient that tourists need to line up for the elevators…

Property is fairly new. Provides free public bath access. Great amenities. A bit of distance from Namba/Dotonbori centre but easily walkable. The hallways are not air conditioned so it could get hot/cold depending on the outside weather.

In the heart of Namba. Never stayed at an APA hotel and resort before. There are 6 of these hotels in Osaka alone. A large hotel with hundreds guests. Elevator constantly stopping on different floors so takes a while to get to your hotel room. The laundry was in constant use and we unfortunately didn’t get a chance to use the onsen, however this seemed busy too. Hotel had a large line for holding luggage prior to checking however the process was simple and effective. Scan the QR code, fill in your details and leave the luggage with staff. You then collect your luggage from the lobby at check in (it is not in your room). The room, on the small side, but had everything you need.
