I stayed here for one night and I would definitely recommend this place. I had some issue with my traveling and resulted in missing a night, but the host was very nice about it after explaining the situation. The host was extremely helpful when I arrived and showed me around. There is a luggage elevator which was really nice! The whole place is 3 floors with no elevators, but the stairs are not very steep. My room was really nice and clean. The bathrooms are in the hallway along with sinks. I stayed here specifically to go to the universal studios in Osaka and it was about a 15 minute taxi so it was very convenient. Would stay here again!

Really convenient stay if you’re going to USJ. There’s a ferry you can take so you don’t have to train all the way around. Room was clean, everything was as pictures showed and it was quiet. The only difficult part was the check-in, but that was on me. There is a cut-off time of 22:00 check-in since the staff leaves at that time (or there is a late fee - they do have it written on their site). My flight arrival time matched with customs, picking up JR pass, and pocket WiFi took a lot longer than expected. Luckily I made it right before the cut-off time. So please consider this if your flight arrives late. Totally would recommend! There’s a 7/11 nearby, places open late at night to eat at, good price, and close to train station!

The owner was very friendly, and it was a well-maintained building with new fixtures and a comfortable room. The location makes it absoluteoy ideal for going to the aquarium, Legoland, and even USJ (whether you take the trains or the ferry!), plus is quite accessible from Osaka Station and downtown.

GREAT STAY!! Host is very friendly

I’ve stayed at a guest house before but this was honestly really great. Even though we had 2 floors of rooms everyone was courteous about the shared spaces and cleaned up after themselves and kept noise to a minimum. I was out exploring most of the day so only time I came back was just to sleep but the showers and sink were always very clean. Would recommend if you are a solo traveler or on a budget, the location is very close to the aquarium and subway station as well as a 7-11 just down the street. Also I didn’t get a chance to try the bar since I drank at other bars in Osaka, the host here was super friendly and helpful.

I mean it’s so far from the main area. You cannot walk to anything. You always need metro and even late night taxi isn’t feasible and that’s why you come to Osaka for the small walking distance lifestyle. I don’t know why anyone would stay here unless they go to universal, nothing around and difficult and long to get into the main areas.

Absolutely wonderful. The owner was so nice and helpful. After just mentioning what we were planning to do the next day, he went way out of his way to give us all the information we needed. I had thought we knew what we needed to know, but turned out we had faulty info. His advice saved us a lot of time. The room was small, but very clean and the ac worked great (in the middle of Osaka summer). The shower and bathrooms are communal, but no problem at all and easy to access. All very clean. If we spend another night in Osaka again in the future, we will definitely stay here. Great value and location (near the aquarium and Universal Studios Japan).
