The location is convenient, but the downside is that there's no dining table, which makes it inconvenient for breakfast in the morning.

The room was new and clean, with a very large double bed. The cooking utensils were well-organized. There's a 24-hour supermarket nearby, and it's about a ten-minute walk to the station.

The place was incredibly clean and great. It's about a 30-minute walk from Nankai Namba Station. When walking, I'd recommend sticking to the main roads as it can get crowded. It's nice to see Dotonbori along the way, even if it's a bit tiring. If you take an Uber, it's less than 10 minutes. Once you get to the accommodation, it's quite quiet with not much light around. Just a heads up, the alleyways can be dark late at night! For a Japanese accommodation, it's spacious. There are two queen-sized beds, and the bathroom, sink area, and toilet are all separate. Since it's an apartment-style place, it has a washing machine, induction hob, microwave, and a DeLonghi kettle. One thing to note is that my Dyson hairdryer didn't work there – but they do provide a hairdryer in the room. The heating isn't underfloor; if you look at the wall, it's for hot water, not a boiler setting. You have to use the heater! It only starts feeling warm at 29 degrees Celsius (around 84 Fahrenheit) unfortunately. T_T

The accommodation has complete facilities. The bed is soft. Best of all, you can do laundry, and there's a heating system in the bathroom that helps dry clothes.

The hotel is excellent, very clean and hygienic. What I particularly liked is the separated shower and toilet, and finally, no more showering in a bathtub – so convenient! Plus, there's a balcony. I would definitely choose this hotel again.
