The staff is amazing and they take care of you. This was my third time here and 1st for my husband and they were really good to us- it’s a great price and clean place to stay the beds are good and quiet.
South KoreaVery friendly staff. Clean and comfortable accommodation. The bicycle for rent is a big plus, as Osaka is perfect for cycling!!
South KoreaThe most friendly and welcoming staff in all of Japan.
CanadaI have stayed at a lot of hostels, I am a pretty frequent traveler. There are those that make you feel so comfortable and welcomed that you just feel at home even on the road, this hostel is one of those. People are incredibly friendly, super helpful, and warm hearted. You can make lots of new friends. The facilities are fantastic very clean, lovely little breakfast, and awesome shower pressure. The hostels location is really nice as it's not directly in the touristy area, so I felt I got to know the local scene a bit better. However it's very walkable to get to most areas of the city and the metro is super close. There are cool izakayas and little shopping streets nearby as well :D. Thank you so much everyone I had a wonderful time and can't wait to visit again, really highly recommend this place.
ChinaGreat hostel tucked away from the noise of Namba but still just a short walk away. The staff were extremely friendly and all could speak English very well — they gave great food recommendations, ensuring we ate the good stuff that wasn’t super touristy. The beds were extremely comfortable and I really enjoyed my night here. Would highly recommend and come back should I ever need a place in Osaka!
United States of AmericaLoved this place. Quiet family atmosphere yet fun at the same time. Staff spoke very good English and were very welcoming.
United States of AmericaTaco party was great. It felt like we are at home. Owners are so warm hearted people. Common area is great.
IndiaBreakfast was the basic toast and choice of coffee and tea, good enough for a hostel stay! I ended up liking the Namba area much more than the other neighbourhoods in Osaka, quaint and quiet but yet accessible to all places.
SingaporeRight near a ton of giant shopping centers and not super far from the metro lines. Insanely friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere that made meeting other travelers very easy.
United States of AmericaFriendliness and warmth of the staff, good facilities, location is near to subway stations
