Ryokan in Shiki District

"Room was small but it was really nice"

"The location of this property is great, just a few minutes from multiple train lines. There are many restaurants and convenience stores in every direction that you go. My only dislikes were that the property was a little outdated and there are only 2 washer/dryers in the entire building and it’s impossible to find a time they aren’t in use. "

"We had a wonderful stay at APA!! This was a very convenient location with a train station right underneath the hotel. The rooms are small but not a problem if you can keep your stuff organized. Toiletries & fresh linens were provided daily. Staff were very friendly. Bed was comfortable. Pillows were stiff which would be my only complaint. We stayed at two different APAs during our trip & would stay again in the future!"

"Best breakfast, amazing staff, beautiful hotel and the comfiest beds. Second time in this hotel and don’t plan on changing it when I return. It’s a must stay at hotel. Arigato"

"At check-in we had a very bad experience. We were extremely tired and just wanted to rest, but we were told that the room we had booked was not available because the previous guest had extended their stay. We were told we might get a room on a lower floor the next day if it becomes available. The staff had very limited English, and the whole process took almost 2 hours, which was very frustrating especially late at night. We did not receive the room we originally booked and had to change rooms the next day to finally get the one we had reserved (higher floor with a view). On the positive side, once settled, the hotel itself was clean, the superior room size was good and comfortable, and the location was great—around 10 minutes walking to Dotonbori. The city view from the higher floor was beautiful and enjoyable. The room had a nice bathtub with hot water, and overall the stay became pleasant after the initial issue. However, the rooftop pool and jacuzzi were not working and could not be used during our stay. Overall, mixed experience: very disappointing and stressful check-in process, but good room, clean hotel, and great location afterward. "

"Amazing hotel and great price super kid friendly would definitely stay here again"

"Best hotel on my trip to Japan I would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Osaka near dontonbori "

"Laundry machine not great."

"Great location - staff were helpful and the room was probably the widest room I’ve had in Japan. This hotel opens directly onto the busy street so great to immediately get whatever you need. "
