"The property seems to be recently updated, it is modern, and clean. The amenity is lacking a few things (for example, it tells the guest to wash dishes and put them away but doesn’t provide a clothe to dry them). Also, the instruction isn’t super clear. The instruction reads to leave the key on the table when checking out (that’s what it says literary in English), when in fact you need to lock and put the key in the lockbox as one example. Also the road to access the property is quite narrow...

THE LIVELY OSAKA HONMACHI

10/10 Excellent

"I made another solo leisure trip to Osaka and wanted to stay at a new hotel that was a good balance of value and convenience. Overall, I had a good experience during my stay at this hotel. The location was in Honmachi, which was a nice change of the more chaotic areas near Umeda and Namba, while also being very accessible to either areas by metro. The room was comfortable and spacious for the price point. Lastly, the staff was professional and helpful when I interacted with them. I did not have the hotel breakfast or visit the bar, since I ate at my favorite places in the area and only came back to sleep. However, it was a very enjoyable stay and a good hotel for solo leisure travel."
