I'd have to say that this property was quite disappointing. There was a strange smell throughout the whole building, the bathroom was impractically small, the air-conditioning either did not work properly or was set to change to 28C after a set time, I'd have to wake up several times a night to change it back to cooling. One of the staff members spoke rudely to my children.. And the list goes on. I would never stay here again.

Thank you for staying to our hotel and your review.We apologize for the inconvenience caused during your stay. Our hotel is in the center of Dotonbori. So, all rooms are little bit small. We will discuss with our staff ways to improve the air conditioning system. Dotonbori Hotel Group have three sister hotels in Osaka. Our sister store other than Dotonbori Hotel has recently opened, so we believe our customers will be able to enjoy their stay here comfortably. We are looking forward seeing you again.

I thought this hotel was really unique in that they had a lot of free activities such as free bike rental, free drinks in fridge and free ramen and wine from 1030pm every night. The hotel itself is quite old and dated however the room we had (twin single beds) was quite spacious compared to some of the other and more expensive places we stayed. On one of the nights I made a noise complaint because some idiots were hanging out talking and carrying on in the hallway with their children screaming at around 11pm at night. I appreciated that the staff attended to my complaint straight away and from then on I had no further issues on any of the other nights we stayed. Just a warning though - if you tend to sleep in there is a construction site right next door. They normally start making noise around 8-9am. This didn’t bother us much because we were up most mornings pretty early to start activities. Also the location is awesome we were super close to Dotonbori river and the Glico man and also the main shopping district, also really close to Namba station and Namba JR which was handy for us. I would stay again based on location.

Thank you for your comments and support! Convenient location is a great feature of our hotel! The hotel is adjacent to the Dotonbori business district! This will not only make it easy for you to taste authentic food. The drugstore department store can satisfy every customer's shopping needs. In addition, the evening ramen noodle and the various lending services at the front desk of the hotel are also a major feature of the hotel! Finally, our hotel will also improve its own shortcomings in the future work. We will continue to work hard to provide each guest with a comfortable and clean living environment. Do not live up to the high expectations of the guests! We are looking forward to your next visit!
