8.8/10

The hotel is a gem just across the vibrant Dotonbori Street, offering a prime location for exploring the area. The rooms, though slightly warm with the heater on, are impeccably clean but lack space for luggage. The friendly and English-speaking staff go above and beyond to assist guests, making the service top-notch. The dining options, with a mix of local and Western dishes, provide a delicious experience. However, the room's limited space for movement stands as a drawback, overshadowed by the convenient location and superb service.
