- Lauren (8/5): Great value and convenient location - Great value and comfortable place to stay in the Korea Town district of Osaka. Sonik was very helpful and kind during my stay and the twin room was very comfortable and great value. The bathrooms are quite small but was not a problem for me. Also appreciated having access to the washing machine!
- Michal (10/5): -
- Iven (8/5): -
- NISHI (7/5): 安い - 価格が安価なのが良かった。
ケトルや食器、家電が使用できるのが良かった。 荷物のセキュリティが少し心配だった。
また、布団が綺麗かどうか少し疑問に残った。
室内用のスリッパが破損しているものがあった。
- David (10/5): - Really nice quality bed sheets. After traveling across Japan with a similar budget, I got to appreciate the quality of the bedsheets and overall facilities. I also felt the guest house was very clean
- Joseph (10/5): Lively neighborhood with a cozy hostel to match. - I loved the character and location of the place being so close to Ikuno Korea Town and reasonably priced food and stores as well as about a 10 minute walk to two JR stations (with huge shopping streets) that have a direct train to KIX airport with one of them connected to the Osaka Metro and Kintetsu lines as well. Everything was clean and there was helpful information all over the hostel with contact details everywhere if I couldn't find the answer to any question I had. I appreciate how much thought and care was put into providing as much help as possible and how nice everyone I interacted with was. Kitchen facilities were a little disorganized while I was there so I wasn't sure where to find things but I didn't need them enough to ask.
- Wesley (10/5): Excellent value for money, be respectful and kind and you will find a true wonderful experience! - Excellent! Amenities were great, Sonik-san was very attentive and checked in with you everyday so do feel free to communicate if you need any help! Nice neighbourhood known as "Korean Town" so plenty of amazing Korean food and markets/culture/kpop to do nearby! All in all a wonderful time and I will definitely be back! NIL
- Dipankar (6/5): - Friendly owner. Some of the little things are ingenious, like a magnetic soap holder and the magnets on the shower curtain. The private room is well insulated so the AC works quickly. Hot water for the shower upstairs didn't always work. Shower upstairs is a little cramped. The downstairs one works fine and has more room. Have to go up two flights of stairs for the private room, no elevator.
- HONGQI (10/5): -
- ilaria (5/5): -
- Fannie (9/5): - Très bon adresse si vous voyager en backpacking ou avec un petit budget, le propriétaire et son équipe sont charmants!
- Emilie (10/5): - Great place to stay. The host is so nice, always asking how we are and what we’re doing etc. always had advice on rail passes and train tickets. The rooms were very spacious, even a balcony to dry your things. Highly recommend
- Soumya (9/5): - Excellent location, great value for money and very helpful staff The air conditioning is not always effective for the upper beds
- XUN (10/5): -
- ZEYANG (10/5): -
- Guilhermebengalo (10/5): Unforgetable - Friendly people , the owner was very kind Pillow
- YUEZHONG (8/5): - 距离鹤桥站比较近,附近还有步行十分钟左右的温泉,性价比不错 作为青旅的通病,你的室友可能会有很大呼噜声,可以理解
- Santiago (9/5): -
- Jomar (10/5): Superb! - Everything about the stay! Highly recommended. None so far.
- Ankur (9/5): -
- Lucas (10/5): - The owner went above and beyond to make sure you have a comfortable stay. Price was excellent and all the facilities were clean and tidy. Functional kitchen and a good location near some key train stations. Cheap bike rental was a big bonus as well! The slippers didn't fit my feet, but that's pretty typical in Japan.
- Lorenzo (9/5): - The mattress and the bed The kitchen a bit dirty
- RIBET (7/5): -
- Fernando (5/5): -
- helen (10/5): - Everyone we met was very kind, very close to Osaka Korea town, there are some daily cheap food vendors nearby in the afternoon. And the shopping streets there were also cheaper than the more touristy areas.
- Melek (6/5): Could be better - There was such a homey vibe. Everything compact and enough for a couple of people.
I love the neighbourhood. 25-30 min away from the center but after chaotic osaka, coming back home felt so good.
The volunteer was very helpful and nice. Also I couldnt meet with the owner but he had a very good communication from the message section.
Corridors and bedroom was clean. Bunk was very squeaky. Even when I or the person moves a leg it squeaked so loud. I tried to sleep like a mummy
Curtain was so short from every side! I was the only girl in the room(which is ok) so zero privacy made me uncomfortable. When I lay down I could have conversations with people under or in between the curtains easily.
Kitchen really was smelly and dirty. I ONLY used the fridge for my beverage but even that was a bad experience for me.
- Maddison (5/5): It was good for the price. Easy to get to USJ. - Close to train station! Friendly staff, helped get our bags up the stairs. Good for the price. It seemed a little unclean and the shower just had a curtain in front, so you only have a small amount of space to get dressed. The stairs are super steep and narrow - so not accessible for everyone.
- Victoria (10/5): Great stay! Central location. - Everything!! The owner Son Inkwan is a beautiful man!! Helped me carry my enormous luggage up the stairs!! The walls in the hallway are a map on where to eat and how to get around. So helpful! Everything was clean and tidy! VERY comfortable bed!!! Nothing! :)
- Anna (9/5): Poměr Cena/výkon naprosto v pořádku, staré vybavení nicmnéně vše funknční a čisté, včetně kuchyně a toalety. Pokud h - Velmi milé prostředí, příjemný personál a klidná a krásná lokalita. Nemohu nic vytknout, vybavení je staré, to bezpochyby, ale cena - výkon za mě zcela v pořádku. Nečekejte žádný zázrak, ale pokud chcete levné ubytování jen na přespaní, nemá to chybu.
- Ferreira (10/5): - El servicio y los cuartos muy buenos son quejas solo que el primer día había una pareja en la litera garchando y haciendo algo de ruido la próxima si pueden que les diga que le sirven la boca
- Agustin (7/5): -
- Harshad Nandkishor (8/5): -
- akira (5/5): 安く滞在するなら良い所 - 値段が安い オーナーさんの人当たり 調理器具の不足 ティッシュやキッチンペーパーの不備

- Grant (9/5): I met a lot of fun people during a quant stay. - Really friendly people and staff. A little older of a building but it is in good condition
- Naufal Arif (10/5): -
- vera (10/5): - El personal fue muy amable, el lugar tranquilo, espacioso, con varios baños, buena ubicación, fue realmente muy agradable quedarme ahí, estaba tan cómoda que lo sentí como si fuese mi casa jaja La cama era algo dura. No tenían acondicionador para el pelo.

- zeyneb (8/5): Konforlu temiz merkeze uzak - temizdi rahattı arkadas canlısıydı bir kişi 👍 ama bir daha alsam merkeze daha yakın bi otel düşünürdüm, dotonbori ve nambaya daha yakın
- *PETER* (7/5): - 屋主Mr. SON與Staff Mr. SATO都很親切熱心。在這可以體驗標準的日式住宅,浴室+洗衣機、廁所、洗手台都是獨立的。要注意到了晚上可能要排隊洗澡與洗衣服。
- Taiyo (9/5): Fantastic - Son is a great host, who is kind to everyone.
Other guests are also friendly. The bed creaks as I roll over.
- Florian (7/5): -
- Gracieux (10/5): wholesome - son does a great job of making you feel welcome :)
- jiayi (8/5): -
- TAO (10/5): -
- Galinou (8/5): -
- Seoyeon (10/5): - 숙소가 엄청 편안해요. 호스트분이 한국인분이라 편하게 소통할 수 있어 좋았습니다. 다양한 정보도 얻을 수 있었고 굉장히 친절하셨어요.
모든 시설이 생각보다도 도 깔끔해서 마음에 들었습니다. 오사카에서 이정도 가성비의 숙소가 또 있을까 싶을정도로 만족스러웠습니다. 역에서 거리가 조금 있어요. 걸어서 12분정도. 걸을만 합니다
- Joh (8/5): Good for the price - Quite affordable price and you can enjoy the staying with other users from around the world the world Furnishing is bit old and the shower in third floor is really narrow
- galit (7/5): התאכזבתי . ראיתי ביקורות נהדרות והמלצות . בפועל זו היתה האכסניה הגרועה ביותר בטיול שלנו . - את התקשורת ב whatsapp עם הבעלים , הוא עזר לנו להעלות את אחת המזוודות לחדר , את המזגן . חדר הרחצה בקומה האחרונה ( החדר הפרטי ואחד מחדרי המעונות ) הוא קטן - סוגרים את הדלת וזו המקלחת , הברז משותף
כך שאם לא שמים לב כשבאים לצחצח שיניים או לשטוף ידיים אחרי השרותים - מתקלחים . בנוסף לא אהבתי את העובדה שבמיטה התחתונה יש מעקה בטיחות - זה ממש מיותר ולא ניתן לשבת על המיטה . ובניגוד למקומות אחרים לא היתה שתיה חופשית . (קפה /תה )
- Chuanwen (9/5): -
- Lorrie (10/5): -
- Poorvi (8/5): Very good -
- 007 (7/5): Good -
- Petr (10/5): Exceptional - Great location and even better guest house. The place is just a few minutes from Tsuruhashi and Momodani stations and has fast access to places like Namba via subway. (from Tsuruhashi you'll get about anywhere in Osaka under 35 minutes)
It's located in a Korean town so you can stroll around, shop and buy korean food just a street away from the guest house.
It's an older house so some of its equipment is a bit older as well, but everything inside is clean and works just fine.
Sonic and Satō were very accommodating and kind to us on all occasions. The next time we'll be staying in Osaka we'll very likely book this guest house again. Nothing comes to mind.
- Jackson (10/5): it was a phenomenal experience and one of the best hostels i've stayed at in japan. - it had a full kitchen available, a very comfortable lounge area, free towel, cheap laundry and the owner was very nice no dryer, so you had to hang clothes for air dry outside
- Umangkumar (9/5): Host was very humble and cooperative. - Everything. Tiny bathroom on 2nd floor.
- Elina (6/5): Pleasant - nice location, friendly host not so comfortable, everything is old and feels like a lot of parts need renovation, was noisy at night, and the stairs are terrific: don’t stay there unless you’re a young and nicely shaped person
- Paschalis (3/5): Poor -
- Vivienne (8/5): Very good -
- Albertina (8/5): Satisfied - We had great time Wa N Wa accommodation
Mr. Sonic the owner very communicative and helpful for what we need.
The place is quite and very clean
Definitely will be back to this place for our next visit.
Much success Mr. Sonic. Nothing
- Tim (9/5): Superb - Super friendly staff!
- Serdino (9/5): Fantastic stay! - We had an amazing stay
Sonic, the host, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He gave some suggestions how to move around the city.
We had a double room with a share toilet.
The room was quite big.
Very recommended!!
- Ryan (9/5): Superb - - Host was very accommodating and friendly. He gives recommendations around the area
- Host is very helpful. He helped me bring my luggage up and down
- Beds are comfortable
- Washing machines are priced well. Even though there is no dryer, there is a balcony to hang clothes - A bit small, but still manageable
- Michael (7/5): Great for the Price - The host was great! He was very kind to us on our arrival. Gave us a quick tour, showed us our rooms and brought us an extra towel as he had forgot one. He also told us some recommendations around the area.
Getting to talk with others was nice as well. We talked with 2 nice solo travelers and another couple. We also exchanged good places we've been to.
2F bathroom and shower was nice and spacious. Laundry was only ¥100, we used our balcony to dry our clothes.
Cooking in the kitchen was easy. He had a gas stove, and we used a pan to cook some Ramen. Soap and sponge was on the counter for cleanup. We had a private room which was at the 3F across from a dormitory. The stairs were very creaky so it was hard to stay quiet if up late or early. The top bathroom was pretty small for me (6'1), so it was hard to pull up and down my pants when using the bathroom. The top shower was also a tad odd as you had to put your clothes outside and above the shower in order to not get them wet. There was only a curtain to block the view when opening the shower and it had a slight crack towards our room
We also didn't like the area around the Tsuruhashi train station it gave is a bit of a bad vibe at first.
- Gerald (9/5): I enjoyed my day there. - The kitchen setup leant itself to interacting with the other people staying there. That was the best part. Bunk beds were a little crowded
- Hrithik (8/5): Very good -
- Fabio (10/5): Excellent price value , great host - Amazing host and very nice stay More than you need for the price
- Christophe (10/5): It's a guest house. So be a guest and interact with people. It was very cosy. - Sonik made sure to make people welcomed and he is very discreet. He check before passing the hoover that everyone is up and he cleans everyday. He really is like Sonic, fast and efficient.
- Chris (10/5): I definitely recommend using his Guest house for your vacation. - The location was in a good area, not far from multiple train stations. There were umbrellas to use, if needed. He was very friendly and answered any questions that I may have had, and suggested some good things in the area to do. Very conversational. The beds were comfortable. I had some really good roommates too. The storage area for my traveling luggage was nice also. Very spacious. I would definitely stay at this location again, if I am back in Osaka. I liked everything about my stay!
- Lucía (8/5): The owner it's super nice and always wants to help. - The location was very nice, close to korean street. There was only one toilet and one shower. And it wasn't very clean :(
- Anatol (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kuan (9/5): Superb -
- Lorenzo (10/5): Great place to stay close to Korea Town, but very accessible to visit Osaka. - Great location, in a quiet area but close to subway, restaurants and a market
- Thore (10/5): Solo backpacking trip to experience Osaka and surrounding cities. - Amazing little guesthouse. Sonik is super friendly and helpful. It’s clean and the kitchen is nice. Will come back here :) Just missed some towels for washing your hands. Otherwise perfect.
- Dylan (9/5): Overall good place to stay alone to meet people and cheap for solo travellers - Location was very convenient
- Petrus (8/5): Very good -
- Jalen (7/5): Good -
- Justina (9/5): Superb - Everything is as expected, basic amenities but nothing to complain about. Good place for backpackers who want to socialise with other guests. We have been here for two days only and were tired with sightseeing so we did not socialise with others but everyone were friendly.
Location is quite good, not too far from the station. The bed is loud when the person on the upper bed moves so it's a bit annoying
- Jose (10/5): Had a wonderful time and was a nice place to start and end the day with everything I needed. - Amazing host and comfy rooms
- Shlomi (9/5): Superb -
- Anthony (9/5): Superb - The guesthouse is really friendly and comfortable.
The owner is helpful and nice too.
I liked the location in the Korean area.
There is a gym and a swimming pool at 3mn. Perfect if you want to do some exercise (600y per training).
The bedroom is all you need, with space for the luggage. It's clean.
For the price, it's worth it!
- Fidzril (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aidan (10/5): Exceptional - Sonik is the best host and very passionate about Wa N Wa.
He helped us with anything and everything.
The private room was large and comfortable.
We will definitely stay again.
We missed a Korean/Japanese lesson but hopefully we can return.
Sonik also helped us when we needed to replace our old backpacks as we needed to book waste disposal to pick them up.
Thank you Sonik! Leaving
- Hugh (10/5): Exceptional -
- Craig (10/5): Exceptional -
- Niklas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Progress (8/5): Enjoyable, but some unnecessary discomfort - I thought the location was very nice & quiet (in Koreatown). It was convenient and although the main metro line required a lot of walking, I thought it was a nice walk considering that the city isn't super crowded or loud. The hostel itself was clean and it was very easy to talk to people because it's not a big place nor it is crowded. It was easier to socialize in this small homestay than in a larger hostel. I met people here that I may keep a friendship with for many years to come! Our host was a very nice person. He was accessible and very easy to talk to. At the time, this was the cheapest place in the city with the highest rating. I thought it was very inconvenient to go up & down the stairs over and over. The stairs are not large and they have a spiral shape. This place would not suit anyone who has difficulties walking. The top floor shared bathroom is too small and very uncomfortable to use. Because of how cheap it is to book here, one guest decided to stay for over a month and did not understand how to socialize properly with other travelers. This was not a pleasant experience because the common area is a small kitchen and only so many people can talk at once. A homestay is no longer a homestay when someone with poor social skills is allowed to stay for so long amongst well-mannered people who are travelling for shorter periods of time.
- Sayan (1/5): Bad - Only behavior of the owner was good. The bathroom, toilet, and kitchen were extremely filthy. The small room had four beds, and it was a complete mess. They gave me a very dirty hand towel. I would definitely not recommend this place to anyone
