Guest Reviews

Samantha (6/5): - É vicino alla stazione, le camere sono abbastanza confortevoli, doccia in comune pulita. La stanza che ho utilizzato è stata rinnovata, pareti un po sottili perché sentivo le conversazioni al telefono del vicino. Ottimo che puoi lasciare la tua valigia lì a fianco alla reception fino a quando vuoi senza dover pagare nulla.
Kaydell (6/5): - If you're like me and just need a bed to sleep in, its perfect. One towel per guest policy. Wifi was awful and wouldn't work in my room but luckily I had my portable wifi 😅 Right next door to the station, great location. Staff were helpful and spoke great english. For women bring hair conditioner, they have shampoo and body wash in the shower room. The hair dryer takes a lifetime to dry your hair so maybe bring your own but its not necessary. Familymart next foor and a lovely ice cream hut. Have fun! Osaka is amazing ✨️
Anthony (2/5): - I set up a NON- smoking room. Also advertised was AC. The capsule was in a general smoking area and a door that when closed, still has a one foot gap on top to allow circulation ( no AC) so the room was smokey. I notified staff and they tried showing me another capsule to stay in to which all are under the same circumstances. General smoking area and no AC and door gap which allows smoke to come into room. I demanded a refund which has already been a challenging process. I had to get another hotel last minute. Very misleading set up. I do not recommend for anyone as a non smoker
NATALIA (2/5): - At the time of checking in staff was not friendly, they gave us only one key to the room even though we asked for additional keys for the each guest, it was 3 of us adults staying there. Room was very loud, you can hear loud guests outside in a hallway, our room was across from laundry. Room itself had a terrible smell inside from tatami floor. Bathroom is outdated and had a mold. Outside of hotel near the entrance smells like urine and we saw a couple homeless drunk people sitting on the ground. I would never stay there again, and will not recommend it to anyone.
rakhi (10/5): - It was great
Regina (10/5): - Nice bed
Yara (8/5): - very well connected to public transport
Verified traveler (6/5): Great price, but quite noisy. - Very nice and convenient location. However, you get what you pay for. The hotel is right next to the train tracks and so the sound of the trains going by can be heard from very early in the morning until late at night. In addition, I could hear the coin laundry very clearly in my room at all times of the day.
Phillip (10/5): - I really didn’t mind the dorm room style unit. I had a bed, table, mini fridge, and a personal bidet. Only thing is the sinks in the hallway to brush your teeth and a separate floor for showers. But that wasn’t a big deal. It’s a short walk to the metro and from there it’s 2 stops from Dotonburi. About 15 min walk to Shinsekai (like a miniature Dotonburi). I appreciated walking back into my room after walking the streets of Osaka.
Anfernee (8/5): - Is concubine convenient
Zachary (4/5): - Mold in the shower room, and not enough space but other than that great location near everything
Artur (8/5): - 1 metro line to Namba and Umeda
Juan (10/5): - Was verh simple and easy to navigate.
Jany (4/5): - Communal washrooms were not sanitary. The door between rooms has a gap in between so you can hear everything outside. You can also hear the train pass by.
Runa (2/5): - IF YOU WRE A WOMAN DO NOT BOOK HERE!!!! If you are anyone who prioritizes their safety, sleeping comfortably, and enjoy a clean environment, this is not the place. The entire hotel reeks, the blankets barely cover you (I’m 5’5”), and there is no sink or shower in your room. The women’s community showers do NOT have a lock on the entrance dood, nor do the stalls; anyone could walk in on you at anytime. The showers themselves are also dirty. The mat to enter/exit the showers are completely soaked, I stepped on a used press on nail in the shower, and the shower itself kept making banging noises. The staff do not clean your rooms, and the rooms smell. This place is genuinely horrible and ghetto. I wish I never booked here.
Daniel (8/5): - Great place to stay for singles and foreigners
Paula (4/5): - Poor cleaning. Noise continuously from outside the rooms. Beds are comfortable
Rajendar (4/5): - Not suitable for adults, room is too small, you have to contort yourself to enter the bathroom, which makes it dangerous to use. Rooms are not serviced daily, if you want a fresh towels you have to take your used towels down to reception for exchange of new towels. Only paper cups provided for tea/coffee, which are used for the length of your stay. Walls are very thin you can hear next door very loudly, which affects your stay/sleep. Pay the extra money for a better hotel.
Daniel (8/5): - If you don’t mind taking the train a lot then it’s not a bad location but it’s right next to the line so it’s hard to sleep early or sleep in. You can hear it from your room.
PRISCILA (6/5): - One can smell people smoking in their rooms while walking in the hallway. You can also hear from your room people talking in the hallway while they pass by.
Barrow (3/5): Terrible not again - The room itself is cold and dirty. You’re sleeping on a thin mattress on a metal sheet. The room says you get a private shower but the shower is on a totally different floor. There is also a decent sized gap above your door so you can hear everything going on in the corridor. The only positive is it’s the train station
Ellis (2/5): - It's cheap for a reason there are people nearby sleeping better on the streets
Jan Hiu Túng, (6/5): - Non smoking room still can smell the smoke. I think it’s the circulation of the toilet. I didn’t like that smell.
Micki (10/5): - It is a good strategic area to stay for me. I would highly recommend to most who just needed a strategic place to stay. Will rebook in the future
Sandra (4/5): - The pictures were misleading. The bunks we okay but the pad or mattress we were sleeping on were awful. Hardly slept both nights of our stay. The showers were the best part, the water pressure was the only saving grace of the property. The bathroom had a stench everytime we went. They also weren't in an easy location to eat before going about our day. We were able to eat in the vending room area but there were only 2 chairs and 1 table. No one else could eat near us. The lobby had bunches of seats around a big table but no food or drink were allowed. Overall, I would recommend not to stay here. The beds, lounge (lack of), and bathroom were just too much.
Catherine (6/5): - Positives- staff and reception were helpful, convenient for PT, essentially right next to a variety of station for different lines on Osaka Metro. Negatives- Property was in the middle of renovation so some awkwardness is forgiven, but showers were on a completely different floor to majority of the guest rooms, women’s shower facilities were lacklustre, area around was quite dodgy, and there was no sink in the guest room even though there was a toilet, which we found unsanitary. The room was barely big enough for 2 people.
Joshua (6/5): - Good for a budget hotel
Romeo (10/5): - I Love to stay hopefully when I come I will book here again.
Jordan (4/5): - The private room is not bad per say but here are the flaws as a whole: - no shower in washroom - top floor shower area is dirty - internet disconnects constantly and is slow - you need to bring used towel to staff to receive a me towel Honestly would not stay here again unless they fix those issues.
Paul (2/5): - Most run down place I’ve ever stayed, pondered leaving but my stay was short. Stayed on third floor hostel area. Vintage pod in private room was cool, it was reasonably clean and linens were fresh. That’s where the positives end. Large gap above door was a bit strange. Hallway windows left open at night so you can hear lots of loud street noise, you also hear other hotel guests coming and going and talking past midnight. Building is non smoking but it’s clear people are using the bathroom as a smoking room as smoke smell is strong in there at all times. Common areas run down. Peeling wallpaper, roof vent in hallway has either lots of dust or possibly black mold(?). White walls in hall area spotted back, appears to be mold. Old broken fixtures just left in shower stalls. Public bath smelled musty and generally did not feel clean. I do feel with some renovations and care this could be a good place to stay, but I personally wouldn’t stay here again or recommend it until I was sure the issues have been addressed.
noppol (10/5): - Good location
Maria (8/5): - I like how thier is 1 floor for women only for showers.
Verified traveler (8/5): - The location is convenient and within easy reach from the Shin-Imamiya station, but noisy in day time for the room facing the train station, Wi-Fi is poor
Verified traveler (8/5): - Bad smell from the unknown river. The cleaning is at average.
SHENBI (8/5): - Overall is above average
Siu Hin (10/5): - very good
Josh (3/5): If you're too broke for a real hotel, hate capsules and dorms, and you hate yourself a little too. - Close to 2 different metro lines. Slightly better than a shared dorm, or a capsule hotel. Only barely though. Cheap enough, but the price on Booking is 2x what they charge in person, so go offline to save extra. At that price point, 2200 yen per night, it's probably well worth it despite the shortcomings. Wifi was very bad. "Private rooms" have 200cm of space above the door. Perhaps to let A/C come in from the halls, as rooms do not have their own units and will get hot. The problem is that every floor has a smoking section, which means that the smoke from the smokers will flow into your room, since heat rises. I asked for non smoking, assuming it meant no one smokes in my room. I didn't understand that they put a space in the middle of the entire floor so that people can smoke. A centralized space, not a room with a window. They put me in a room 2 doors away from the smokers lounge. As well as the putrid smoke which you would expect from this proximity, i was also extremely bothered by the noise from teh sliding door. The smokers do not consider how they are being loud or smelly, and they slam the door all night.
Natasha (8/5): - Close to the train station, the staff was very nice. Kinda loud due to the location.
HIROTO (8/5): - there are lots of shopping mall
Oliver (1/5): Absolutely terrible, do not stay here - Nothing Disgusting, by far the worst place i stayed in 20 or so different places in Japan and i left a night early (room rates not even cheap). Unclean, whole floor stank of cigarette smoke, unfriendly atmosphere and staff did not even question my early departure (must happen a lot). AVOID AT ALL COSTS
wendy (6/5): - I had to tell other guests to be quiet very loud . Dont expect WIFI it doesnt work only hotel stayed at 9 so far this trip this is only one no internet. Glad only one night as very old and not the cleanest .
Ainhoa (8/5): - Cheap, clean common areas, quiet and well located. The only bad thing is that the mattress is so hard that it felt like sleeping on the floor instead of a bed
Cole (10/5): - .
Cedella (7/5): Good -
Chanel (3/5): Poor -
Natalia (4/5): - 7 nights, cool concept of privacy for hostels, but very old and very dirty rooms, I had to ask for them to change the bed sheets because of the dust. Room with dirty slipper(found a nail sticker in mine) and dirty cabin, was full of some dark fluid in the walls (looks like spilled soy sauce) I was desperate and cleaned with some wet tissues to be able to sleep the first night. Only one woman bathroom, always smelling awfully, the other guests never respected the "only women floor". The workers were very nice and respectful!
De Qiang (4/5): - Limited staff, the front counter seen to be close after 1 am. There is a bathroom in the room, but there is no shower of a sink. The sink have to be shared out in the hall way while the shared shower us on the top floor.
Mireia (7/5): Good - The restroom in booking put that the bedroom has a private bathroom but the reality is that are shared bathrooms outside the bedroom (capsule).
Alexandra (4/5): - place was dirty and not very sanitary
Ivan (4/5): - NOT RECOMMENDED. I am not a frequent traveler, but out of all the Airbnbs and hotels I have stayed in Japan and even Southeast Asia, this is the one of the worst 3. Background: I stayed in a private room, private shower, with 2 twin beds. Reason: 1. The hotel is dated by current standard. a. While most public and restaurant restrooms have toilet with bidet, the bathroom in this hotel room has no bidet. Bidet is a standard feature of any Japanese toilet and this toilet is below the standard. b. The plastic on the light switch cover, electric outlet cover, and AC remote has turned yellow due to age. The part of the AC that sits inside the holder remains white. c. The TV in the hotel room is smaller than 32” TV. Per iPhone’s measure app, it’s about 22-inch, which is smaller than common computer monitor. d. The room has concrete floor with obvious chipped paint. e. The room uses key, and not an electronic card key system. 2. The hotel room shower is small. I am considered skinny by most people. I find myself touching the shower curtain as I turn around in the shower. 3. The hotel is vey close to the train track. There is a slum across from the hotel. You can see trash starting to build up on the sidewalk extending into the street next to get train track, people sleeping on the street next to the train track. Use Google Map to see it yourself. 4. Poor insulation. I can hear next door using water using the shower.
Shane (8/5): - It is what they stated. Had a single room for 3 nights and had a very pleasant stay here over all. Would stay again
Wei (5/5): Passable - The location is superb, just right beside the JR shin imamiya train station. Booked one of the private room with private bathroom as part of the facilities. However, it wasn't really private bathroom afterall, the bathroom is not attached with the bedroom. You have to use the bathroom located in another floor, and they are shared with the rest of the guests. I hope you can refined the facilities details regardingthe definition of "private bathroom".
Mindy (10/5): - It was a pleasure staying at the inn. The only thing that was missing in the room was a mirror.
Mariel (6/5): - Very near the train station. Near Daiso and the big Don Quijote.
Caleb (10/5): - The staff was friendly and the hotel was good for the price. The surrounding area is scary though.
Nicolas (10/5): - Good place for the money
Christopher (6/5): OK, but probably better locations to stay if you're going out in Osaka - Reasonably cheap and accessible (during the day) in Osaka. Good to have private rooms for multiple guests. Showers needed cleaning. All common areas closed. Difficult to reach from Namba after trains have stopped running (long walk). Twin pod room was akin to a prison cell. Aircon was not very effective.
Bobirjon (4/5): - It was different
Elena (8/5): - Clean and close to the station
Trask (2/5): - I'm not a picky person but I wasn't able to last two hours in this hotel. The room was dirty and smelled like marijuana. The walls are paper thin and I was able to hear EVERYTHING everyone on the same floor did. Staff were rude. Even for the price, I can't recommend this hotel to anyone.
Gareth (10/5): - Great place for a quick rest stop. It covers all your basic needs and the sleeping pod is quite spacious
Verified traveler (8/5): - The location is quite convenient and the room rate is pretty reasonable!
Verified traveler (8/5): - The location is very very good and convenient. The room rate is quite reasonable.
Verified traveler (6/5): - Staff at night seems impatient. Space is cramped and small as a whole.
Dennis A (8/5): Will use again - I have stayed here before. This time it was not so good. Did not get the room that I wanted. Could have been my goof. Had to pay more for it. I said no thanks. The capsule room was very small. The train noise was okay, but at 02:30 the noise in the hall was very loud for 3 nights. The staff was very nice. I would stay there again but make sure Hotel.com gets my booking right.
Marc (8/5): Simple room with great location - Very simple room with a great location. Close to transport and the supermarket around the corner is a winner.
Verified traveler (8/5): - The location is very good and the room rate is reasonable!
Verified traveler (4/5): - Noisy, people talking, yelling at the corridor at night time.
Verified traveler (8/5): - A nice budget hotel with options for private or shared baths. I got a room with private bath, but went to check out the shared baths. One floor is men's only, and another is women's only. Both have a nice lounge area. There is also a common kitchen area, but you may have to wait to use the stove at meal times. The staff is friendly and courteous.
Mod (8/5): - Very close shiniimamiya station Small room but clean Staff speak english well Family mart and Lawson are not far from hotel.
Kenneth (8/5): Fix the Wi-Fi on 8th Floor - Hotel is great. Need to replace wi-fi router on 8th floor.
Kenneth (8/5): Fix the Wi-Fi - Hotel is good, but they still have not fixed the wireless router on the 8th floor.
Verified traveler (10/5): - easy to access from airport and not far from namba or umeda
MARY (8/5): - Near the train stations , shops, restaurants and landmarks. The only issue during night time , u can hear noise and the train.
Simon (8/5): Great little spot! - Pros: cheap, convenient, and a nice change from hostels, since you get your own room. Cons: it can be noisy, as the rooms don't fully close off from the hallway, and the male shower situation is annoying for a Westerner. If a toilet stall on each floor was converted to a shower stall it'd be perfect. Area is "rough" for Japan, but that just means you might see a drunk person as you walk around. In reality, it's well served by public transit and within walking distance of all sorts of fun stuff!
Verified traveler (8/5): - near to the train station
Verified traveler (8/5): Great location walking distance to Namba Station - Convenient location: 30 seconds from shin-Imania station
Verified traveler (10/5): - very friendl
Verified traveler (6/5): - not really comfortable
Darryl (8/5): Good location to Shin Imamiya Station - If you need a place close to Shin Imamiya Station (eg transfer to the airport, going to Koya-san, etc), this place is excellent since it is just next door to the station entrance (Nankai Line). Check in is easy and the front desk looks like they speak a number of languages. Downstairs common area is good but I felt the upstairs corridors, common bath, and bedrooms were very bare bones and unclean/old compared to some of the other hostels/hotels we've stayed at for similar prices. Nevertheless, it's great for a stay when you need to be close to the station
Susan (4/5): - The hotel could not find our reservation at first and took sometime to correct it. Other than it's convenient location to Shin Imamiya station, the hotel is below standard. Room and shared bathroom were dirty. Many homeless around the hotel, doesn't seems safe.
hsueh (10/5): - only Electric furnace and Microwave oven on kitchen nothing else. It's should have pot and bowl for basic cooking.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice stay, near direct train line to KIX Airport and easy to walk to many in-town destinations. Fully recommend for budget stay coz overall amenities are fine enough for stay. (also near a very best price Supermarket)
Kiko (6/5): Good & bad - Clean, nice location, great shower, they made different floor for women & men making me feel safe. Neither accept using their telephone and receive the message from your freind for you. A little bit noisy (depends on who stays next room) -when they shut the door, the fridge was in the corridor then people closes the door roughly
Mike (4/5): - Not comfy bed, showers on the 10th floor. But very cheap
Verified traveler (8/5): - Good if you arrive late because it is close to Airport train.
Hoan (8/5): - Hotel is in walking distance to Nanba, JR, Metro, Subway. Hotel is quite at night. The common area is comfortable.
Almond (8/5): - Budget hotel that value for money. Very close to Shin-imamiya Nankai station, so comfortable to travel to Kansai airport and walkable to Dobutsenmae subway station. Room was clean, private bathroom was wuite small but OK.
Verified traveler (10/5): Best price and location - Right beside the Shin-Imaiya station. Which is four across from USJ and on a cheap and direct line to KIX. It's also day enough away from KIX that you can get a seat.
Melody (2/5): AVOID AT ALL COST - I made the mistake of not reading the reviews before booking this hotel and trusting the pictures... The pictures are misleading : the twin room we had was really small, we had a window that was partly hidden and which we couldn't open. There is a gap at the top of the doors so everyone can hear / see (if they climb up) what happens in the room. We could hear people walking and talking throughout the night. The hotel is not very clean and you feel like you're in a prison. I was lucky to have female showers and toilets on the same floor as my room (4th) but my partner had to go all the way to the 10th floor to go to the loo or shower. Plus, they only had 2 male showers for the whole building!!! The neighborhood is very dodgy with pachinko and drunk people wandering around the station. The showers and washing basins were very dirty and creepy as well!! The only good thing is that it is literally 1mn away from the station so convenient to take the train and go downtown. I am disappointed that hotels.com would even list this hotel and I will never book it again nor recommend it to anyone.
S (8/5): Great location and excellent staff - Great location and very helpfull and friendly staff
UTHAYARAJAH (10/5): - This is a fantastic hotel.Very good value. Closer to railway and subway stations.Free sauna and jakuzi.There is a kitchen. Staff are super friendly.Highly recommend.
Verified traveler (6/5): Very close to the train station - Love how close the hotel is to the station! Very convenient to travel to places!
Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice hotel near to train and subway station
Dan (6/5): - There is a smoking room at the center of each floor, and the ventilation of the room is pretty bad... Smoke comes into my non-smoking room. So I used my special mask (bought at Amazon) to purify the air. If you don't have it, then avoid this hotel.
Terence (2/5): - I can't understand why this 'hotel' doesn't have lower ratings. We chose it as it's hard to find a capsule hotel that does a private room for couples...although this wasn't a private room. Large gap at the top of each capsule room means little privacy/security/noise issues. There is a smoking room on each floor that has capsules, however people leave the room open so the smell is present across the whole floor, so our 'smoke-free' room which we specifically booked stank of cigarettes. Instead of so many smoke rooms they should invest in more toilet/shower facilities, providing mens and womens on each floor. I had to go one floor up or down (accessed only via the lifts, no internal stairs) to have a shower/go to the toilet. As a woman that did not make me feel secure. Room was very small, barely enough room for 2 people's luggage and the door didn't close properly. Was very dated, and not very clean. Found dust and hair left from a previous guest. Not sure when room had last been cleaned!! While it is 20 mins walk from Nanba, the area around the hotel was sketchy, dirty (by Japanese standards), and there weren't many places to eat. This is definitely a budget 'hotel', was a big let down for us as the photos make it look much nicer/less dated than it is in reality. Wouldn't stay again!
