This is a business hotel chain in Japan. As usual, the hotel room that I was allocated has the same design with the other outlets that I had previously stayed, thus everything is the same in the room. Sizing of the room is small but you are still able to open up your luggage on the floor without any problems. Sizing for the bed for 1 pax is a small double size bed. For ladies, this outlet gives out bodycare set when you checked in. They provide free breakfast. Breakfast is very tasty! Location for this hotel is walk-able to Namba area and Kuromon Market. Staff for this outlet speaks pretty good Basic English, so there shouldn’t be any problem.

“Meh! 50/50 if we would go back. Outdated but great location”

A bizarre review from me - travelled with family of 4 (2 boys) biggest hotel room we stayed at in our time in Japan. Good divider between us and our boys.

A bizarre review from me - travelled with family of 4 (2 boys) biggest hotel room we stayed at in our time in Japan. Good divider between us and our boys. Lack of service with the self check in - room was so incredibly out dated almost felt like a hostel. Bed was so incredibly hard!! Road works right out the front of our room from 10pm - to 6am, with NO email of warning I had zero sleep! Free buffet breakfast was fine - location was absolutely amazing! Close to Dontibori Street, Namba station! Not sure if we would go back but good accommodation for 1 night not long term.

“Comfortable, quiet hotel, close to the action in Dotonbori”

Decent enough hotel--my room (single) was large enough with a very firm,comfortable bed. Close to transportation--there are two subway stops close by, however as another reviewer pointed out it's not really in Namba and Google maps takes you a roundabout way to get there!

Decent enough hotel--my room (single) was large enough with a very firm,comfortable bed. Close to transportation--there are two subway stops close by, however as another reviewer pointed out it's not really in Namba and Google maps takes you a roundabout way to get there! Maybe 10 minutes walk to the action in Dotonbori. Lots of places to eat around the hotel and many, many, anime/manga shops in the area. The 4 PM check-in and 10 AM check-out times were a bit strange for Japan (usually 2 PM & 11 AM), but not huge issue. Not much English was spoken, but the staff were friendly enough. Overall a comfortable stay. No complaints!

“Not really in Namba”

My overnight stay was I guess okay, room was clean and staff can communicate well. But for the price I paid I think I'll get better value for my money from other choices in Namba or Shinsaibashi which are more central or an Airbnb which may have better sheets. This hotel is still a good 10 to 15 mi… more

My overnight stay was I guess okay, room was clean and staff can communicate well. But for the price I paid I think I'll get better value for my money from other choices in Namba or Shinsaibashi which are more central or an Airbnb which may have better sheets. This hotel is still a good 10 to 15 minutes walk from Namba station so it wasn't very comvenient dragging my suitcase all the way. The free breakfast food would only have rice, soup and side dish, but not really a main dish. If you don't mind staying in the gaming area of Nippombashi and that 10 to 15 minute walk though, then this place should be okay.
