It was a great stay. The staff made it a warm and friendly experience, even the other guests were great. The facilities are better than most places at this price and they try to make the entire experience as accommodating and attractive as possible. The rooms however are showing some age but this isn't enough to deter me from rebooking a stay with them on my next trip.

needs a major clean-up. it is showing it's age.
had the misfortune of having a group of teenagers who didn't want to sleep. the beds are lumpy and needs to be replaced. the room was dusty. they probably have not changed the curtains since we stayed 2 years ago

Not far from Namba Train station and Dotonbori. The staff are very friendly. The room and shower are clean. Although the bed was a little too hard with a thin mattress it was very cozy. I will come back again!

Tiny Turtles in the Desert
There was once a turtle ready to lay eggs, when a falcon scooped up the turtle. The turtle fought back and landed in the desert, with no water around. She laid the eggs beneath the sand, as if she would've done in the beach, but passed away from the heat. Her young ones rose from the sand, but could not find the water. But then, a tourist came out of nowhere and started taking pictures of them. Realizing that one of her top comments were that turtles don't belong in a desert, she put them in a box and dropped them off at a beach, where they went off to the ocean as nature intended. Moral of the story, I did not feel like This hostel was the greatest, but it was promising. Just felt very cramped, yet you had enough privacy for everything.

This is a hostel
We stayed here on our final night in Japan. It is important to note that it is a hostel. We had a private room and stayed on a Friday night, thus some of the guests were a little rowdy. Overall, it is centrally located, clean and tidy with shared bathrooms and showers. The staff were all friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.

Great guest house not even 5 minutes from Dotonbor
This was a great place, the staff was very kind and friendly, there's lots to do in the hostel if you have spare time, and you can go to Dotonbori with not even a 5 minute walk! Lots of authentic restaurants close by, and a very active nightlife! Dorms were very clean, cafe was very welcoming as well as a very nice kitchen/living room area

Good but effectively no wifi to speak of.
Wifi does not work in the room, at least on the seventh floor. Also wifi does not work once more than a dozen people are logged on. Impossible to do anything with wifi during 5pm to 2am and from 8am to 10am.

The bad: Double-decker beds in most dorms are fine and par for the course. However, the one in this hostel is dangerous. The beds are probably custom-made, and it's tricky trying to get to the upper bunk. The ladder steps are awkward and the hand grips are non-existent. You can store your bags in front of the reception, but the storage area is not locked, entirely self-service and can be accessed by anyone including the public. The good: Unbeatable location.

Great Stay
The Hostel was better than I expected, and because is my first time staying in one, it really leaves me with a good impression of hostels~ The place is clean, the staff are friendly~ The location isn't that far off from the shopping district~ The facilities are well maintained~ Will definitely return to stay~ ▷Shared Domitory◁
