“It was very nice to use alone.”
I suddenly prepared for a trip to Osaka and made a reservation in a hurry. Ultimately, I was very satisfied! First of all, it is located very close to the subway and in a tidy area. The staff were kind and quickly assisted with both check-in and check-out. The biggest advantage of this hotel is the large public bath. The very clean environment and spacious bath were great for relieving the fatigue from my travels. Additionally, the quality of the yukata and other amenities was good, so I enjoyed a pleasant experience bathing every day. The TV in the room also provided information on the crowding of the public bath, so checking it before going down made it even more comfortable! (Support in both English and Korean) Furthermore, the housekeepers provided clean towels hanging on the doorknob daily without needing to request room cleaning, which was nice. The value for money is also the best! Highly recommended!

“It turned out to be a comfortable journey.”
The route from the station was flat and easy to walk with my carry-on. The room was a bit small (I had a little trouble finding a place to open my carry-on), but I am very grateful for the affordable stay. The amenities were also well provided, which made me happy. I was satisfied with the service and cleanliness! I would like to use this place again.

“Access is excellent.”
Directly connected to Higobashi Station, with convenience stores and pharmacies around the hotel, and on the first floor, there is a restaurant serving vegetable dishes that stays open late at night. It is also within walking distance to Festival Hall and the Nakano Island Art Museum, so I was able to take a morning stroll, see the cats at the museum, and have breakfast at a nearby café. The room is compact and well organized, and I didn't hear any noise from other rooms, so it was fine just for sleeping. The only downside was that there was hair stuck to the bathtub and wall in the bathroom, indicating that the cleaning was not thorough.

“It's convenient as it is directly connected to the station.”
I have used it several times. It is very convenient as it is directly connected to Higobashi Station on the Yotsubashi Subway Line. Using the APA direct app makes check-in easy and stress-free. The single rooms are not necessarily big, but they are clean and comfortable.
