The staff was incredible and super kind. The rooms were super clean as well! I had the opportunity to use the public bath and it was a wonderful experience
Overall found this to be excellent accommodation. The only negative was limited laundry facilities, too few machines for number of guests. Room was comfortable and excellent amenities.
Great hotel, lovely people I went on a solo trip for a whole week and they walked me through everything to feel welcomed. food recommendations, spots where to go and shop just ask!! People are super nice and approachable I’ll be back within a month lol
The room was very small for two people. Staff was nice and accommodating. There's a laundry with 4 washer/dryer on the 2nd floor. Convenient. Morning breakfast is served daily. Food is tasty and assortment of food.
Decent hotel stay. Not enough dining options very close by, so you’ll need to walk up close to Umeda, but it’s not an issue. Staff were kind, it’s APA, so you get what you pay for.

Every transaction with hotel staff was frictionless. The room is small, but has every amenity. The price is excellent, for the APA location in Osaka is likely one of the best possible for a visitor. The area of the city is rich, riverfront with some foreign embassies, some offices and some residential . Many parks too! It is clean and lively , yet without being crowded. There are many traditional and Italian restaurants around! Museums, convention centre, all walking distance, and if you want to explore Osaka, Metro station right at the hotel entrance too. The hotel provides a laundry machine room, sauna, and has a breakfast restaurant (which is a thing surprisingly hard to find in Osaka; most food places are lunch and dinner only!) I recommend.

Everything was fine . Room was a bit small, curtain had a hole in it and was broken. Shower curtain should be replaced. A little awkward taking a step up into the washroom.
Overall a little expensive for this hotel
Very convenient area close to the subway. Staff were super customer service and went over and above what i would expect. I left my laptop in a cab and staff helped me phone the police department to confirm that the in fact had it before I made my way down to pick it up. All this was in japanese as english is my first language.
My worst experience in a APA hotel unfortunately. My room was the tiniest as possible and it got hot. They control the AC so in winter time they won’t allow you to use the cool mode. I had to leave the window open. The is ok but very small. It’s well located by the metro station just downstairs but with no elevator or escalator so let me tell you with your suitcases you will feel it.
I couldn’t experience thr restaurant at the top because it was closes or fully reserved. The one downstairs is good and healthy. All restaurants are very strict on time. Outside of the window opening you won’t have your breakfast. The staff was not helpful with my ac situation and when i lost my receipt to log inin their system…
Awesome location, staff, and clean. There is a hospital nearby so there will be sirens if you sleep with your window open. Great view and the ramen across the street is amazing.
