We stayed at the hotel for 5 days. During that time, we found both pros and cons. A definite plus is the location: it's right next to Dotonbori but slightly tucked away from the hustle and bustle, very close to Namba, and easy to get to all attractions. There's a huge supermarket and an excellent currency exchange nearby. Finding places to eat is no problem. We opted for breakfast at the hotel. The selection wasn't extensive, and in my opinion, it wasn't worth the price the hotel charged. However, it was a good option to grab something to eat in the morning before heading out to see the sights. The menu was the same every day, which got boring. There were no fruits offered, and the pastries weren't appealing. This leads us to the cons. The room was very tired, with dust on the shelves, stains on the wallpaper and curtains, and a faulty faucet that didn't regulate water pressure. We placed our trash and a bag of wet towels in the hallway, and they were always replaced by the time we returned. Water bottles were only provided upon check-in and not refilled afterward. However, there are many stores around, so we bought water for tea daily. The laundry and drying process wasn't efficient; we managed to wash one sweatshirt with great difficulty. The staff couldn't explain much effectively. The front desk did help us arrange luggage shipping, and we appreciate that. The lobby is very cramped, with only two chairs for resting right in front of the elevators. Another plus is that you can open the window! We had dinner at an izakaya in the neighboring building, and it was delicious and had a great atmosphere!
