So happy to sleep in here, very peaceful and have the warm to all the guest. Hope someday I have chance to come again in Osaka.
This guest house near Universal Studio, so you don’t need to wake up early to go to Universal Studio.

The front desk was very welcoming. It's convenient to go to Universal Studios by walking, subway or Didi. We took Didi and came back by subway after playing in the evening.

This is my first time staying in a youth hostel that needs to use a public bathroom and toilet. I didn't expect it to be so clean and tidy. During the Spring Festival, most rooms in Osaka were overpriced. I didn't expect it to be so clean for more than 500 RMB with four beds. It's also very quiet when sleeping at night. It's within a five-minute walk from JR, one stop to Universal Studios, and one hour to Kansai Airport JR. I'm very satisfied. I cleaned it up before leaving. I hope everyone can keep it together. It can be seen that the owner is very attentive.

It's very, very clean and quiet. Everyone and everything here is very, very cute. If you are traveling alone or want to go to Universal Studios, it will be very convenient to choose here. You will meet people from all over the world and make new friends. It is a magical experience and highly recommended.

It's easy to get there on foot from USJ, so I highly recommend it! It's a dormitory, but it's like a small single room! I was grateful to be able to get to the hotel right away after a day of fun. The staff were very friendly, and I'd definitely like to stay here again if I have the chance to go to USJ. The lobby was spacious.

The hotel is close to usj. The lobby on the first floor is spacious with sofas and chairs suitable for work or leisure. 🚾, the bathrooms are divided into male and female. I booked an 8-person female room which is spacious and my roommates are very quiet. There is a place to wash clothes on the first floor. A manual with Chinese translation will be given when you check in, which is very convenient. Note: Because it is in a residential area, you can call 🚫. You cannot use a hair dryer from 11pm to 8am. The door is opened with a password, but the door password cannot be sent when ordering on APPs such as Ctrip. You need to contact the staff to give the password when checking in. Also, there is basically no one on the road when returning at 8pm in the residential area. If you are alone, pay attention to safety and return to the youth hostel early.

I booked a single room with bunk beds. It was spacious and close to the subway. I could walk to Universal Studios. The guy at the front desk was very patient and tried to communicate with me in Chinese. I recommend staying here.

The location is convenient for transportation. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to USJ. There is a convenience store near the station. All the facilities in the hostel are clean and well-organized, making it feel like home. If I go to UJS next time, I will consider staying in this youth hostel! 👍

The lockers were spacious and it was convenient to rent bicycles. It was within walking distance of USJ, and it was good value for money for a place to just sleep.

My child played in Osaka Studios until the park closed at night. I couldn't play anymore, so I extended the room rate of the 8-person dormitory for one day as an hourly room. The front desk was very considerate and let me check in as early as possible without any delay. There were actually only two people in the 8-person dormitory, so it was very quiet.

Currently, the accommodation in Japan is very clean, and the hostel is no exception. The tatami room is a little cold on snowy days, and the window is a little leaky, but the air conditioning in the room is very powerful! If the air conditioning is turned on, don't sleep on the upper bunk because it will be very dry. If the air conditioning is not turned on, it is okay to cover yourself with a quilt, which is very thick.
The bathroom and toilet are very clean, and there are bathrooms and toilets for women on the second and third floors.
The quilt cover is the same as the bed sheet, just one layer. In the simplified Chinese instructions for making the bed, the mattress and quilt are marked in reverse, but the traditional Chinese version is correct. It is recommended to modify it, although it does not affect understanding.

In general, youth hostels require you to make your own bed and collect the sheets, which is quite troublesome. Toothbrushes and towels are not provided and need to be purchased separately. The girls' bathroom cannot be used after 10 pm.

I stayed here for two nights to attend the music festivals at Kaiyukan and Maishima Sports Island.
I realized I was going to have to leave so I couldn't use it this time, but the bicycle rental service is very cheap, so if you have a similar purpose, I definitely recommend using it!!
As you can see in the photo, the facility was very clean and comfortable.
I stayed in a dormitory, but I think the temperature you feel varies depending on the location, so choose your bed carefully👍
There is almost no ventilation in the shower room (or none at all), so I recommend moisturizing and other body care in the room.
Body soap and rinse-in shampoo are provided.
Amenities are basically purchased (rented) on the spot.
There are no paper towels near the sink, so please bring your own handkerchiefs.
Earplugs are available for free, so it's okay if you forget them🙆♀️
Because it is in a residential area, the washing machine and dryer can be used from 8:00 to 23:00 (one wash takes 30 minutes), and the door to the washing machine area closes, so you need to make sure to take out your laundry by 23:00.
It's cash-based, so if you plan on doing laundry, make sure you have some coins ready.
The sink was spacious and had a plug so you could wash your hands.
The private area was very spacious and it was comfortable to be able to spread out your luggage.
There were about five padlock-type lockers on each floor, so you could go out without worry! (Padlocks are available for free rental)
I'll definitely use it again!
