We stayed in a 4 dorm, 2 adults and 2 kids, for 4 nights. The hostel was great for us in terms of location, cost, and room space. They serve some amazing lunch and dinner options there too! The hostel was one of the quietest I've ever stayed in and the facilities were all fairly clean and well equipped.

Good value for unbeatable price. I stayed an additional night because the place was satisfactory. Bathrooms were spotless and cleaned daily, though girls' shower and sink area can start accumulating hair left behind and becoming increasingly dirty as the night goes on. The bed was firm, you could feel the springs, but the sheets were hotel-level clean.

本町駅の中央線四つ橋線ホームからは近いですが、御堂筋線のホームからは少し歩きます。飲食店はパラパラとしかない印象ですが、周囲にコンビニが多く、また1Fのカフェ&Barのメニューが充実しているので食事には困りません。予想以上にシャワールームが充実してました。ドミトリーの2段ベッド上段はちょっと天井までの高さが低く、ベッド上での居心地はイマイチですが、寝てしまえばなんてことはないです。

家族旅行4人でプライベートルーム利用。素泊まりではコストパフォーマンスはかなり良い。リネンなども清潔に保たれており、シャワーのお湯の出も最高に良かった。細かいけど天井の通気口に埃がたまっていたのが目に留まったくらいで1階のサカバも美味しかった。中、高の子供達もまた来たいと高評価。

安さが魅力です。共同ドーミトリーはとても狭く、荷物や(雨の日は折り畳み傘などを乾かしている人がいて)歩くスペースもほとんどありません。寝具は清潔で快適でしたが、トイレは階段途中にあって不便でした。
