The owner is amazing, rooms are super clean and you are right beside the tsutenkaku tower, the owner also took me to some nice restaurants and karaoke bars that I wouldn’t have known about if it weren’t for him! 10/10 couldn’t recommend this place more!

歯磨きセットは持参すべし。通天閣のすぐ近くだが意外と騒音も気にならず、かつてのドヤ街のイメージが嘘のよう。料金に見合う品質で寝具も綺麗。また利用したい。
外観。一階が受付。事前に連絡しないと係員とミートできない。
受付脇の階段を昇って三階が客室へ。二階は住人がいる模様。
