The hotel was wonderful! Great location to restaurants and metro station. The had free self serve coffee and tea station that was available 24hrs a day. The also had free beer every day a different hours with a live DJ playing music. The hotel was very well kept. We traveled with family. We would definitely stay here again.
This place was amazing! The location is perfect close to alot of things.staff we're awesome and very helpful. Every night at the hotel bar there is a happy hour and they set up a DJ and you get complimentary drinks also 👌 👌👌
Best hotel I have ever stayed at. The hospitality, the friendly staff, free beer evenings 6-7pm, the breakfast is fantastic.
Great place on the 2nd floor to hang out for a complimentary coffee and charging stations everywhere.
Communication with staff was very easy. Nice rooms, decent breakfast, really pretty roof top with wind chimes and nice common areas. Wish I stayed longer so I could make use of them.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
It was fine, nothing special though. Quiet and clean. Staff were unhelpful with bag delivery when we arrived. They were helpful when we left. All spoke good English and no issues with checkin or checkout.
Beautiful and modern hotel. The rooms are tight but super clean and the DJ and bars are amazing! We enjoyed the free tea and coffee so much! Great stay!
The room was clean and the decor had more of an urban feel, which was different than what we have experienced so far; it was nice. The service all around was excellent and this visit felt like a good value.
The lively was one of the best hotels I've stayed at ever, from check in to check out, in-between, the service was impeccable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone going to Osaka. The rooms are good size, clean and showers are amazing! The location is close to subway, 7-11, Family Mart and Lawson! extremely convenient. They also provide free beer from 6pm-7pm everyday. Literally 2 min walk to subway station and 2 stops to the famous Dotonoburi area.
I would definitely stay at this hotel again whenever I go back to Osaka.
