Homestays in Osaka Prefecture, Japan

Hotel were offering late checkouts to guests who left 5* reviews, so I feel that the reviews have been artificially inflated by people rating 5* so that they can get late checkout. Location was quite far from the JR Namba station and even further from the metro Namba station. The bed was really hard and uncomfortable. Bathroom was tiny, kitchenette had a raised lip which was easy to trip over or stub your toes on. However, the size of the room was good, there was a good amount of space. It would be ok to spend a night or two here but I think we were there 5 nights which wasn’t great with the uncomfortable bed. When we checked in we were told a room number of an uncleaned room and had to ring out of hours to swap rooms, but that was all resolved quickly by the hotel. Also to note, the keyboxes didn’t feel very safe/ secure because the codes followed a pattern (so if you knew one you’d know the other rooms), but we didn’t use the lockbox except for when we checked in so it didn’t affect us, but just something to consider. Overall it was ok for a budget hotel but I think the reviews make it seem too good to be true!

The place is clean and comfortable, the room has enough space, and it's convenient for shopping. The shower area is also very clean, there are bathrobes, and the room even has an air purifier. In the morning, staff will be waiting at the door promptly to clean the room, very punctual.

Hotel was so nice and clean, size was good and really near tourist attraction like tsutenkaku and really near subway station. Overall really good and will recommend it!

Unbeatable value for money, quite new, and most importantly, the price is reasonable. The small size isn't a problem. It's not far from two subway stations, just a few hundred meters away. The neighborhood is supposedly a bit unsafe, and it's true; strange people gather in front of the convenience store next door at night. There are homeless people. And there are people shouting after drinking at 3 or 4 AM.

The location is excellent, with two train stations nearby and about a 10-minute walk to Tennoji Zoo. However, we were a little disappointed that the shower was not working initially. That said, the administrator responded quickly and changed our room immediately, even late at night, which we really appreciated. We hope the administrator can check the facilities more carefully before future stays. Overall, we still recommend this place.

Overall, the property feels quite dated, understandable as it's been open for a considerable time. The door lock also felt a bit insecure. On the plus side, the room was more spacious than I expected. The onsen bath was also quite small. However, the tatami bedding was surprisingly comfortable.

really enjoy this room and also enjoyed the check in system. the location is good, but prob not good for jr pass user since the station nearby isn't jr. good location though

We came to stay as a stop before going to the airport, no transfers no nearby bus etc only the station which is 13-15 minute walk away. There’s a shopping outlet with food places again 15-20 mins away we got a taxi and it was 4000+ yen. 1000 from the train station if you have wheeled or little luggage this may be easier/cheaper There’s a 7-11 nearby and a Lawsons and dominos to do you for a night. We never saw the restaurant onsite open. Self check in. Had a toothbrush and tooth paste towel in the room along with a kettle and cups. Had basic shampoo body wash etc but nothing else that it lists on the listing was good enough for one night only

Good value for money in Osaka. You can walk from Teradacho Station, and it's cheaper than staying near Namba. There's a Don Quijote nearby, so you can easily walk there to shop.
