2-Starhotels in Osaka

Pros: 1. Room and toilet is clean and amenities are provided. Will not provide picture of the rooms as is exactly like in the picture. 2. Soundproof was actually good as there is a small balcony overseeing train station and I like the view of it. 3. Walking distance, approx 10 mins or more depending on your walking speed to Tsutentaku, Shinsekai or Donki. 4. I highly would like to say “Arigato” and praise the host for responding to all my questions before checking in and during my check-in progress (when I encounter issue). They respond to all my queries on time. 5. The train station located nearby has JR, Metro or Nankai lines, which can bring you directly to Minoh-Kayano Station, Tennoji, Namba, Umeda, Osaka or Kansai Airport. A proper planning is require to take your require train. Cons: 1. We have 2 medium and 1 small luggages and barely can open full 2 medium luggage despite having a closet. 1 small luggage can be open fully in the middle between the 2 beds but it will block the walking to the balcony (if require to go there). 2. The kitchen and toilet area, gets quite cold during the night and the heater cannot reach that area. Not sure if the floor has a warmer. 3. Despite there is a train station nearby, still require to walk approx. 8 mins above depending on your walking speed. If you are coming with JR train, there were no lift or escalator at the nearby exit to the stay. We had to carry all the luggages down till the exit. However, if you are taking Nankai lines to the airport, then no issue with the luggage as there are 1 lift operating at the nearby entrance. 4. The road at night gets quite lonely and scary if you are walking alone but I believe is alright in Japan. 5. No eateries/restaurants and convenience mart within the 5 mins walk. Overall, I enjoy my stay here and I always stay at this area during my travel to Osaka due to lesser crowd and convenience to reach airport. One thing to note, do complete all the pre-registration that the host has email you in order for a smooth check-in. Again, I would like to thank the host for the great hospitality and responding to my queries.

This was not my first hostel experience, and I have to say, I was a bit disappointed. Let’s start with the positive aspects first: The location was absolutely perfect — I don’t think you could find a better place to stay in Namba. Everything was close by, and getting around was very easy. Also, the staff were extremely, extremely friendly, and we received fresh towels every day, which I really appreciated. Now, onto the things that bothered me: First, the cleanliness: It wasn’t really clean. In the showers, there was always a lot of hair and dirt in the gaps where you enter and exit, which was quite unpleasant. During my stay, someone vomited in the public sink area, and it was not cleaned up overnight — it was still there even at 10 a.m. the next morning. Because of that, the house smelled strongly of vomit for a while. That night, and in general, there was often an unpleasant smell in the kitchen area as well. Without wanting to discriminate, I noticed that many older people were staying at the hostel (since apparently there was no age restriction). Some of them would loudly clear their throats and spit phlegm into the sinks, even early in the morning, which was quite disturbing and unhygienic. Another issue was the temperature: The room was extremely hot at night, and since so many people were sleeping in one room, the air became very stuffy. Even inside your capsule, it was uncomfortably warm. One last point: On the day of arrival, the address on Trip.com was wrong, which made it very hard to find the hostel. It took me almost an hour and a half to find it, especially because it was very hidden with no clear signage outside. I really hope that in the future, there will also be an age limit for guests.

Het is absoluut een toplocatie! Ga bij het verlaten van de winkel linksaf en ga direct naar Shinsaibashi. Hier vindt u onder andere drogisterijcosmetica, 2D-winkels en eten, en verschillende incheckpunten. Nadat ik de producten had vergeleken, kwam ik erachter dat de drogisterijcosmetica in Shinsaibashi daadwerkelijk goedkoper zijn dan die in Umeda. Als u in het weekend naar Japan gaat, kies dan voor capsulehotels. Ze zijn weliswaar betaalbaarder, maar de service en de klantkwaliteit zijn prima en ze zijn erg schoon. Beneden is er een 711. In dit gebied kun je volop genieten van heerlijk eten, zoals yakitori, barbecue en westerse gerechten.

This place is absolutely amazing! Everything you can make online, super clean and in a very convenient location. It looks just renovate and exactly like in trip photos. The only thing I didn't like was that the only showers for so many people are located on the 1st floor and you have to go up and down with the elevator every time. The price during weekdays is very cheap for Japan

You can’t beat this kind of place. Cheap and cheerful. One cheerful guy at front desk for sure is Ryo Sakamoto. Every time I went to the front desk, he would smile more. It seems like all guests make him smile.

De badkamer was schoon en mooi, en er was een bar op de eerste verdieping, dus ik kon een drankje bestellen en van buitenaf kopen wat ik wilde eten. Er staat wel een koelkast in de kamer, maar die koelt alleen, de kamer zelf niet echt. En het is zo klein dat je een klein flesje water moet kopen om erin te doen. In de tweepersoonskamers zijn handdoeken aanwezig, maar u kunt extra handdoeken krijgen als u erom vraagt. Ik denk dat je zonder zorgen over handdoeken kunt komen. De kamer is vrij klein, maar ik denk dat het voor deze prijs een redelijke en fatsoenlijke plek is om te verblijven.

Ik kwam op 19 maart tussen 18:00 en 19:00 uur aan. De hoofdingang was geblokkeerd en ik zag alleen een bordje op de zijdeur met de instructie dat gasten zichzelf moesten inchecken om een ​​toegangscode te krijgen. Gelukkig kwam er een bewoner uit de zijdeur en liet me binnen. Er was een vrouwelijke medewerker, maar die leek druk bezig te zijn met haar telefoon en deed niets om te helpen. Later kwam ik erachter dat het personeel bij de receptie tot 22:00 uur beschikbaar had moeten zijn om de hoofdingang te openen (zie de schermafbeelding). De volgende dag werd het personeel bij de receptie vervangen door een man die verantwoordelijker was en goede service verleende. Ik vroeg om een ​​extra kussen, omdat de kussens die we kregen te dun voor ons waren.

Guest House B is a bit of a walk from Namba Station, but I would still prefer staying here again. The hostel is very clean, well maintained, and organized, with everything provided — from toiletries and towels to practical amenities like a microwave, refrigerator, and even free coffee and water. I also really appreciated the women-only dormitory, which felt safe and comfortable. One thing to take note of is that cleaning starts daily at 10am and lasts until around 3pm, which means you’ll need to be up early if you want to shower or use the facilities before then. The cleaner also mistakenly knocked on a few guests’ doors before their checkout time, though this was a small issue compared to the overall quality of the stay. All in all, I found it a convenient and comfortable place and would happily stay here again.

Afgezien van de vochtige vloer bij de kluisjes (waarvan de oorzaak onbekend bleef en waar ik geen reactie op kreeg toen ik het meldde) en het lawaai dat me 's ochtends wakker maakte, was alles verder prima. Ik heb goed geslapen en de locatie is erg handig. Ik kon ook voor het inchecken en na het uitchecken in de gemeenschappelijke ruimte blijven om te werken (bedankt!) en te koken. Misschien zou de airconditioning in de gemeenschappelijke ruimte overdag uit moeten staan?

It's old and run-down , but the staffs are friendly and price is not high. A good place for short staying
