Is in really amazing location and the staff is the best. Stayed for two nights but wished I could stay more days.

Bedrooms are a little small and can get quite warm.

Probably my favourite hostel in Japan. The staff were so nice and the building was so cool and quirky in the best way. Location was also unreal.

Lovely staff, fabulous location and a really great friendly atmosphere. Stayed in the family room for two nights and it was perfect for exploring the area. Highly recommend

Nothing bad to say about this stay, it was great! Although I stayed in a 10 bed mixed dorm, as a female, it felt safe, private and very cozy, even for staying multiple nights. Highly recommend, would definitely stay here again.

It wasn't an issue for us, but there are 2 sets of narrow stairs. Other than that, there is nothing we didn't like.

The location was very good. It was right near the train station so we could do day trips. The restaurants were very close and the food was amazing. The place was very clean and comfortable and overall good value for money.

The slide - because now I want one in my own house

Wow, this is an incredible and very cool little hostel absolutely deserving of five stars. The staff are friendly, helpful, and wonderful to speak with. The bed in the shared space was surprisingly clean, comfortable and spacious enough to relax in. Also felt very private. The hostel is reasonably social but was never too loud late at night. Bathrooms were also very clean. I felt so relaxed and at home here and loved returning after exploring all day. Also the bahn mi and coffee are fantastic! I will definitely come back next time I'm in osaka

The windows don’t block out sound well, and outside noise comes through easily.

The staff is incredibly friendly, and the room is both clean and charming!

Location is amazing, Shinsekai area is my favorite in Osaka and the staff makes you feel like home, they're very helpful and welcoming, the chicken Banh Mi at the restaurant is amazing by the way, I'll gladly come back!

The curtain above my bed was not dark enough and the placement was a bit weird so there was some light coming through. It was also pretty noisy at times as the window was placed close to your head.

The vibe is very social and the staff are the best. They made me and others feel at home and made sure people got to know each other!

The location of the hostel in Shinsekai was quite far away from most Osaka big attractions

Very friendly and professional staff, very clean and cozy environment

I only stayed for 1 night, would base here a lot longer

Cool atmosphere, nice staff, good vibe. Coffee and matcha is great and the banh mi’s are amazing. Great spot for digital nomads to work from. Right in the mixer of Shinsekai as well so loads around

The hostel has a homey vibe with nice stuff. The location was very convenient as I wanted to stay at that area. I am an early riser and was lucky with a shower, but I suppose it can be tricky to share one with all those who stay there

The beds are well designed and comfortable. Location is quiet enough even though you’re next to a busy part of town. Still, earplugs help. The shared spaces are fabulous! The kitchen is so well stocked and you can use the spices etc. A lovely calm space for eating. The rooftop is cool! Downstairs the vibe is friendly and relaxed. I walked into the hostel many weeks ago and instantly felt good in the place. Staff are super nice! They were understanding about me having a bicycle, and caring. Guests I met were nice folk, dynamic and interesting. Cannot recommend enough if you want to meet some lovely travelers.

The steps to the room were a bit narrow, so a little hard to take up and down my luggage, but it wasn't too bad. The beds were a bit creaky when moving around, but the earplugs helped.

The staff there were super friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The place looked so cool, had a slide, and it was super fast when I slid down it 😆 For 10ppl room, it wasn't as noisy as I had expected, which was really good because I was able to get really good sleep! Earplugs and mouth tape were provided 👍 The location was good too, really close to tsutenkaku tower.

Incredibly friendly and helpful staff, very talkative and willing to teach/chat in both Japanese and English, helped me out with a booking problem

This hostel ended up surprising me. It's a little gem. Has a real nice feel about it. I wish I had stayed longer. Female dorm was very quiet. Only four beds in the dorm and plenty of space for baggage. Curtains around bed space and a lockable box for valuables. They also give you a lock if you don't have one. Roof top area is very nice and you can see the tower easily. Got some great shots of it lit up. Also within easy walk if eating places and stations. Was good for getting on the train line from osaka station and also to koyasan. Would highly recommend this hostel.

Only problem I had was connecting my adapter and plug to the power socket on top bunk made it quite heavy and when it fell there was a gap for it to fall to the bed below!! Otherwise great.

The staff were really friendly, nice atmosphere with cafe down below. Good location. Beds were great and comfy, washing was easy to do with a rooftop to hang it out.

Absolutely nothing. Everything was more than I hoped for a hostel. My favorite hostel I've been to.

I LOVED LOVED LOVED the lobby. A lovely restaurant with music, vinyl records, a restaurant, an upstairs area with a slide. The room is also very nice and the location is in the Shin-Sekai area. The vibes are absolutely phenomenal. If I visit Osaka again, I'm definitely booking this place again.
