Location was quiet but very accessible. I arrived Osaka in the evening and arrived at the hotel pass its Front Desk availability (2200 H). But they waited for me and ensured everything was settled before I can rest. They even gave me tea as a welcome treat! NO hassle wit regards to checkout and staff and people there were very accommodating. I will definitely be back here :)

Great staff and very close to subway station, it takes 3-4 minutes on working. If you are taking a JR pass, please expect to pay a little extra money for subway ticket.

The staff speak English, Japanese, and Chinese (Mandarin?). They were very welcoming and it felt nice to be greeted as I left and came back.

The woman in charge was kind. Though she doesn't speak English very well, she was very adamant on making sure we understood how to get into the hostel if we left after hours. She made us put in the code ourselves to ensure we knew what we were doing, which is very nice. The location is about a 15 minute walk to the OCAT bus terminal. On the way you pass many amazing cafes, so its in a very great place. I was very pleased with what I got for the low amount of money it cost. I will definitely be staying again.

I would have liked a locker to store my laptop in while I was out. While most travelers are friendly and honest in my experience, I prefer some sort of locked space for my things.
The overall value - low cost, great location (one metro stop from Namba Station and Dotonbori), clean facilities, and friendly staff - makes Picnic Hostel a great choice for the budget traveler!

The owner runs the show, he is quite relaxed but very attentive, he prefers cash payments because of the damn credit card fees, but will still take your card payment. And also, check out is very relaxed, just leave when you want, maybe even a bit later.

It was a bit hot... Maybe because I had the bed that was most further away from the AC. Other than than it was great... I would recommend it to anyone whose going for a short trip 1-2 days..
The staff was really nice and was ready to help all the time. We had our privacy because we were able to cover our beds it was good.

Shower is inside the dorm so shower time is before 11pm I remember, it is a bit inconvenient if you arrive late and has the habit of shower at night. Other than that, great place!
The place is cosy and the staffs are very friendly. Location is awesome, away from the noisy busy areas but still within walking distance to tourist areas as well as local food places allow you to comfortably travel in Osaka. It is very close to subway so very convenient to go to Nara and Kyoto.

“three words "good vibes only"”
- • Business trip

The check in was not until 3pm which seems to be the standard, in Japan HOWEVER as it is less than 15 minutes walk away from Dotonbori there is plenty to do to kill time, and the staff is happy for you to leave your luggauge in the lobby area.
The staff were very kind and patient, even when I asked silly questions like how to turn the light on in the shower room, they stopped cleaning whatever they were cleaning just to come all the way up to show me, and make sure I was okay. And did I mention the cleaning? the place was spotless because the staff never stops. There were also many other sweet and cute little touches from the staff, but probably too much for me to list here. Also I would like to add that the owner has excellent English.

The room would probably be better as a single room. No desk/table and chair in the room which would make it that bit more useful. The tatami (beds)were not that but rather foldout cubes single bed.
The deco is nice. The staff was very friendly and easy to communicate with. The bathroom is perfectly formed for that space. Great location.

hostel is like a 2 minute walk from Sakuragawa station exit 1. Easy to go to Namba Station for Dotonbori and Hanshin line for USJ. Comes with complementary shampoo, body wash, use of blow dryer. clean and tidy. cute WC wallpaper.
