Cleanliness is good and provided ammenities are good as well. Perfect for solo travelers and duo travelers (packing light). ##### Daniel Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 27 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient and comfy stay Booked this lodging pretty late, but enjoyed staying at this chain. The location was surprisingly convenient as it was really close to the metro entrance. The area was relatively quiet, but really accessible to the touristy areas of the city. Comfy rooms overall. A nice stay that is easy to travel from. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Johnathan 27 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Johnathan Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### scott 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Absolutely fantastic team and tremendously helpful ##### scott Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel 25 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I try to stay at APA hotels while in Japan as they are always clean and safe and the staff are always polite and professional. This hotel is near restaurants and convenience stores and the Tokyo metro is connected to the hotel so it’s easy to get around. The ramen place across the road is amazing. I highly recommend this hotel to stay at when visiting Osaka. ##### Daniel Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### jeff 5 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very modern.

However, the room that we were set up in smelt horribly of cigarette smoke, and the only way we could get rid of it was by running the air conditioning for a very long time. Overall, the building was very nice, but our room, I don’t know about other rooms. But our room was not nice. ##### Rebecca Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tung 15 Aug 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities ok ##### Tung Stayed 27 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Martyn J 1 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Room comfort #### Small rooms and unnecessary check in The hotel rooms was extremely small. There was no room to move about and the bathrooms are tiny little capsules. The check in process was long and unnecessary with staff just watching you struggle ##### Martyn J Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Timothy 2 Sept 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities Could not contact the hotel, even after email and going thrkugh expedia. Nothing. Terrible customer service...booked and paid for a room, but expedia booked the wrong day. Immediately attempted to rectify and there was zero assistance given.
