Guest Reviews
- Arthur (9/5): - Really nice vibe and great set up. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Also only a minute walk from the station. The only downside was that there was nowhere to store my bag in the mixed dorm.
- Kakuta (10/5): -
- Denise (9/5): -
- Gemma (10/5): The Staff made the place amazing! It’s a beautiful home and stay, very clean and good for meeting fellow travellers - The staff were so friendly and helpful!

近くに公園やカフェ、スーパーもあり楽しめました☺︎

- Shinichiro (10/5): -
- Denise (9/5): Cosy and friendly - The ambiance gives a sense of warm simplicity. The fact that the hostel is a traditional Japanese house makes it all the more charming, offering travellers a different perspective on their journey. I spent four weeks there exploring Osaka and the surrounding area without any problems; the subway, supermarkets, laundrette and restaurants are all nearby. The staff are friendly and helpful at all times, and you will be amazed by the artistic murals :)
- Jarger Alexander Asaria (10/5): A home while abroad - It's far enough from the city center to be more relaxing and close enough for it not to take very long if you want to go there.
The owner is very kind and has an overall calming energy to him.
The place is welcoming, homely, relaxing and definitely has its own personality.
All the staff here are fantastic, super helpful and are the last pieces that create a whole.
I really like the common spaces, the Kotatsu is a great addition here.
- Jayson (8/5): -
- Chen Bin (10/5): Good - Very warm and comfortable
- トシ (6/5): -
- Sato (9/5): 楽しくリラックスできました - 館内のいたるところに様々なアートが描かれていて、またキッチンなど共用スペースも充実していて、お得に楽しく滞在させていただきました。昔の建物の感じも懐かしく味があって好きです。
スタッフの方も親切で助かりました。
いろいろな国の方がいらっしゃりピースフルな感じでした。
ありがとうございました!また来たいです。 ほとんど困らず快適に過ごさせていただけましたが、人の多いときの玄関の靴を置く場所がやや狭かったかなとも思いました。(靴をビニール袋などに入れて部屋まで持っていっても良かったかなとも後から思いました。)
- Mehmet (10/5): - Her şey çok hoştu çalışanlar çok içten ve samimi güzel bir ev ortamı yaratılmış bayıldım
- Tokunaga (9/5): -

- Mark (7/5): -
- Shannon Derrick (8/5): -
- Alexander (8/5): I had a good experience and would stay here again. - Not a bad hostel for the price. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and there was a good social vibe there. The dorms were small but each bunk had a lockable storage area, which was nice. When I got there I accidentally fell asleep for two hours, so the beds were pretty comfortable haha. There’s interesting “words of wisdom” written on the walls all over the hostel so you can be entertained as you’re sitting on the toilet. The building’s a bit old, but that didn’t really bother me. Low doorways so watch your head! It’s a bit far from central Osaka but the train station is a 3 min walk from the hostel so still convenient.
- Jana (8/5): But still we think it’s worth the money and we enjoyed our stay! Thank you! - It’s a really artsy and beautiful space! The hosts were very nice and helpful. We loved the neighborhood. Very loud street in front of the building and there were only two western toilets for lots of guests.
- Ayumi (8/5): -
- Uliana (10/5): Nice cheap hostel in Osaka - Nice smaill hostel in Osaka, not far from the airport. nothing

- 若菜四季 (9/5): - スタッフさんも宿泊客も優しい 特に無し
- Marc (9/5): I would go there again. - Tomo (not sure if i writing it right) the owner is so Helpful with Tipps and stuff you can visit . Time to time he also gives a little Tour around Osaka . The Ambiente was really comfy for me . Some of the guests had their alarm clock on at 06:00 in the morning but thats nothing bad about the Hostel just about some guest
- Waka (8/5): - 駅近で、とても良かったです。 特にないです。

- 小松 (8/5): -
- Daijiro (8/5): お手頃で素敵な雰囲気を楽しめました - センスの良いアットホームな雰囲気 ドミトリールームの共有スペースが狭く、同室の人とすれ違うのも苦労する
- Hugo (9/5): - Equipe au top, ambiance et déco agréables. Bien équipé et lits conforts, au top pour quelques jours à Osaka pour ceux qui préfèrent s'éloigner du centre-ville et découvrir les alentours!
- Thomas (6/5): -
- Sara (7/5): Not great value for the money paid - Quirky accommodation more suited to younger guests
Large room On a Very busy noisy road
Noisy from guests smiling and chatting outside our room
No western toilet on our level

- Wittreich (9/5): - In unmittelbarer Nähe zur Blueline ( Midosuji) erreicht man sämtliche Vierteln in Osaka mit geringen.Aufwand..Es befindet sich ein sehr schönes Einkaufszentrum in unmittelbarer Nähe. Das Viertel Kita-gagaya wurde zu einem.Kunstviertel umgestaltet und es gibt sehr viele Möglichkeiten der Unterhaltung und zur Erfahrungserweiterung.. Das Hostel verfügt über Fahrräder.
- Nathan (9/5): -
- evalutw (10/5): - Cozy and laid-back environment. None
- Jelmer (8/5): - Nice hippy and creative feel to the place. The surrounding area is a former industrial area, now more with artists. Next to a busy road, lots of cars and motorcycles making a lot of noise.
- Ashman (6/5): -
- KEI (8/5): -
- Sayumi (5/5): トイレ以外は居心地よく満足でした。 - 綺麗に清掃されていてベッドも寝心地が良かった。荷物室では木製のドレッサーが鍵付きロッカーになっているのがお洒落で面白かった。 トイレが男女共用。綺麗に清掃されてはいるが、足の甲に隙間のあるトイレサンダルに小が飛び散っているためサンダルを履くのに躊躇した。女性専用のトイレを用意するのが難しいのであれば、せめて男性も座って用を足すように促していただきたかった。
- Petr (8/5): Tradiční ubytování v moderním pojetí - Vynikající přístup k hromadné dopravě, příjemné autentické prostředí Tatami jsou trochu prašné
- Zeno (8/5): -
- Rosa (7/5): -
- Alexandre Guzovsky (10/5): - Localização muito boa, staff incrível!
- Travardi (7/5): -
- Tavi (8/5): Intimate space where friendship seeds are sewed - Warm and welcoming little place. Enjoyed the art EVERYWHERE I didn’t like being next to the highway
- Katharina Maria (8/5): -
- Geetika (8/5): -
- Kaho (7/5): - 駅から近く、スタッフの方も親切でした。
建物は古いけど、清潔にされていて、ゲストの思い出がたくさん詰まった素敵な場所でした。
- Zoe (10/5): - Personnel au top ! Super ambiance ! Bien équipée et confort :)
- MIKU (6/5): -
- Kumiko (8/5): 日本なのに、海外にいるような不思議旅体験 - 楽しい雰囲気が、施設全体に溢れてました 朝スタッフが居なくて、ありがとうが言えなかった
- Eri (4/5): - 子連れだったのですが、少し雰囲気が怖かったようです
- Herbert (7/5): entspanntes Backpacker Hostel - gute Atmosphäre - eher wie in einer Höhle mit Wandmalereien, bis zum Rand vollgekritzelt mit Weisheiten von Backpacker-Philosophen. die Lage des japanischen Zimmers mit Futonbetten in unmittelbarer Nähe einer mehrspurigen Straße - nur getrennt durch ein klappriges Fenster mit Einscheibenverglasung
- tanaka (6/5): -
- KAORI (7/5): とても便利な立地でした!最高でした! - 駅から近くて、周りにたくさんお店があって便利でした。ベッドが完全に仕切られていたのと部屋が涼しかったのがとても良かったです。もう少し長い滞在でゆっくり時間があれば、周りのカフェとかアートがある場所にもっと行きたかったなぁと思いました。予定を決めず気ままな旅ならここに泊まると何かおもしろいことがあるかもしれないなぁって思わせる場所でした。 特にないです。

宿泊している海外旅行客の皆様と交流できて楽しかったです。
施設はおしゃれで清潔感があり、とても快適に過ごぜした。 洋式トイレが一個しかなかったこと
- Stijn (4/5): - Leuke inrichting Personeel heeft in mijn locker gezeten. Welliswaar door een misverstand (ze dachten dat ik een andere boeking had, maar dat was niet). Vervolgens halen ze mijn spullen uit mijn locker. Kwalijke zaak. Verder goed hostel
- chrizao (8/5): -
- KYOKO (8/5): - 海外の安宿な感じです。おしゃれ。前の道路工事があって、その時はうるさかったけど、終わるととても静かです。ドミの部屋は狭いけど、寝心地はよく、朝までぐっすり寝れた。近くのライブハウスに参戦。市バスで1本で行けたので、良い宿を選んだと思う。 古いし、狭い。
- 若杉 (10/5): -
- Welch (6/5): Not as cute as the pictures but still cozy - I adored how cozy the building felt. The art on the walls, all the notes and pictures from previous visitors were beautiful. I genuinely found myself finding something new on the walls every day during our stay. I liked the community areas, always felt nice to meet news folks and chat over meals. All in all I liked homey cozy the building was. That being said. This was definitely a case of the property, and rooms didn't meet up to the pictures online. I've stayed in many hostels and hotels in japan this year, so yes, I know they're small. But this place brought new meaning to that. Everything in this place is tiny, from the hallways to stairs, bathrooms, showers, kitchen, and rooms. Not mention unstable! The floors on the first floor are so tore up, especially in the kitchen, that I tripped several times. Honestly, I can deal with how tiny and tore up everything is, but I draw the line at the state of our room. I want to preface this by saying I paid roughly 370 usd for 5 nights in Osaka for two people. It was very cheap and reasonable, so I understand!!! That!! Im not!!! Staying in a 5 start hotel here!!! But I'm still disappointed that the room is not what I thought I booked through the pictures.. In the photos for the room with twin floor beds it showed a clean room with a cute lampshade over the main room light. Nothing crazy, minimal but clean. We arrived to not only a spider on the wall, not only scuffs/dirt/damage to the walls BUT a bare light bulb hanging from the ceiling.
I want to end this with a few nitpicks. Just kind of a beware, the road outside this place is extremely loud! But the staff let's you know in advance and even provides ear plugs at the front desk which is nice! Still even with them, the place is very loud.
Lastly, I had personally had a pleasant experience with all the staff members. But my brother cant say the same. One of the staff members seemed to have something against my brother (or maybe she was really shy?) She gave him a lot of annoyed side glances and wouldn't really acknowledge or greet him. Not to say my brother was always trying to start up conversations, just friendly greetings. My brother isn't very talkative, but he had good interactions with everyone else!
- Syamsul (8/5): - The tidiness of the place. Helps me also to understand how to organize myself too. Overall nothing
- Yoko (8/5): -
- retara (8/5): -
- kumi (7/5): - スタッフさん ドライヤーがわかりにくかった
