I was very happy with my stay at SARASA HOTEL Shin-Osaka. I stayed for three nights. My room was lovely and bigger than expected. It was clean and comfortable and had a small refrigerator. A sleep shirt and robe were also provided. The bathroom was a good size. I had breakfast at the hotel; it is a small buffet with both Asian and Western options. Same as a lot of hotels, depending on what time you arrive, the buffet can be very crowded but I did not have any issues.
As a solo female traveller, I felt comfortable at the hotel and getting to and from the hotel to trains. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The neighbourhood is quieter than downtown Osaka which I enjoyed as I found many parts of Osaka to be crowded and overwhelming. It was nice to return to a quieter part of town. There are small restaurants around the hotel serving delicious food as well as dining options in the train station. Transport links are excellent. I would stay again if ever in Osaka.
