Ken is such a wonderful host, the area is beautiful with some great restaurants, somewhat off the beaten track and therefore very much for the locals! The kotatsu (heated table) was a joy in cold weather, and this was a nice place to meet other travellers while travelling solo

The hostel is kind of small but is really cozy, the staff was super nice and reliable. We had the pleasure to meet Yoshi who was a fantastic host. Since it is a small accommodation that also holds a bar, we had the opportunity to meet a lot of people who were staying there and have a drink together, so the atmosphere was almost familiar. The cats are very friendly and lovely, I loved the cat walls with all the pictures of the pets from around the world.

The cats were very well looked after. We had a lovely time playing with them. The staff were very attentive to the cats and spent lots of time cleaning up and feeding them. It is also a rescue and 2 were adopted while we were there. The hotel / Ryokan was very comfortable and clean. There were lots of lovely places to eat nearby. We would definitely stay again

All the staff speaks English and are very sociable. Beds are comfy if you like it hard, plenty of showers and toilets in the room and on the floor for everyone to do their hygiene routine. Lounge is big and very sociable, lots of tables to form groups and make new friends with. The best part is the tatami mat sitting area. Great location. The hostel is a 5 min walk from Tennoji station and is right beside a familymart so you can get a quick meal whenever.

Hostel: Simple, clean and comfy capsule room. Had a desk, tv, and mini wardrobe. Very cozy. When you check in, hostel will provide a goodie bag with fresh towels (3* sizes), slippers and pj's! Location: Right around the corner from Shinsaibashi shopping area. 5 min walk from Hommachi station. Facilities: Common areas were well maintained. Great water pressure from the showers. Provided facial cleansers, lotions, qtips, etc. There's also a small cafe connected to the hostel. Super friendly staff and great coffee/snacks! Others: Fellow travelers were amazing in keeping the sleeping area quiet at night and did not hear a single phone alarm go off in the mornings.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    It was my second time staying here. Great location, friendly staff and very cheap. Previously I stayed in a superior capsule and I was surprised at how much space you have. This time I stayed in a standard capsule in the female dormitory and the bed area is quite spacious. The facilities are also very clean. I would definitely give this a go if you're going to Osaka for a short stay.

    Best hostel in Osaka for meeting new people, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The receptionist was willing to go the extra mile, he even shared his dinner with us. Late checkout was possible with no extra charge, the receptionist was willing to wait for me for a late check in, nice terrace and benches outside reception as well as kitchen and common parts. Beds were clean and comfortable had a good sleep, dorm was quiet at night, good AC. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone looking for good value for money

    Extremely cheap backpacker style accommodation especially considering that it is private rooms rather then bunk beds. Futons are surprisingly comfortable. Common room seemed to be quite busy most nights if you are the social type. Pretty good location, 15 minutes or so from Namba Station. Easy enough location to get around. "Poorer" area so provides an interesting and different look into Japanese life, always felt safe though. Several convince stores nearby to buy water and a breakfast bento on your way out sightseeing.
