Hotel staffs are uncooperative and not allow hotel guest to connect laptop to TV’s HDMI port for work. I booked this hotel partially relied on using the big screen TV for work. Very very disappointing

APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Umeda Eki Tower
It is super crowded and rooms are very tiny. To me smaller than usual standard room. We stayed at other hotels where we had bigger space washer sink and a ok size bathroom for cheaper

Hotel Intergate Osaka Umeda
This hotel was not a great experience. The rooms were extremely small, probably the smallest room I have ever stayed in. The bathrooms were prefabricated, like a trailer. The staff was not that welcoming.
