STAYAT OSAKA SHINSAIBASHI east
We loved this property. The room we booked was big enough for all our luggage and a lot bigger than other rooms in the area! It’s next to a 7/11 as well and this made it perfect for late night Konbini runs! :)

Hotel LEGALIE Osaka Shinsaibashi East
Room size is big, good for travel with friends and family. Interior is a little dated. Only have washer no dryer so there is that issue, but there is coin laundry close by in 5 minutes where it does drying. Location is not too bad, close to main area of Osaka.
