"The hotel is very central at a calm street in Osaka. It is easy access to multiple metro stations. Though the room is very small and you almost dont have place for a bag. It is japanese futon beds which can be quite hard, we both had some problem sleeping on them. Though the worst was that walls and doors were very thin and you could hear people talking and using the toilet and shower in the corridor. "
