The front desk staff is not there in the morning or past 10pm, so if you need anything like towels outside of these hours, it may be difficult to get. They also don’t offer room cleaning when we stayed there for 3-4 nights. The bathrooms are soooo tiny, but that may be common in Japan. ##### Amy Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Eric 24 Sept 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Small bathroom carpet in room was stained and dirty it was hard to get towels and the location was ok i wouldn’t return especially for the price. ##### Eric Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Timothy 14 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly, international staff, comfortable, clean room; a good hotel all around. ##### Timothy Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Johnathan 21 Jul 2025 Wayfarer matsu hotel is within walking distance from Dontobori street.

We never met anyone, check-in was online, we got the access to the room by email and we had no room cleaning for the 3 nights we stayed there. You can get any towels or extra toiletries from a shelf at the “lobby”. The room was ok in size but the pillows were very uncomfortable. Small bathroom but that’s how they all are in Japan. ##### Alba Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jesper 9 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice staff.

But I would have happily given up some of the living area space for a slightly bigger bathroom. Very very small and compact bathroom... not horrible but my gosh! So tiny! I knew this going in from the other reviews so was not totally surprised. One thing I thought was unusual for Japanese hotel was that the carpet was not dirty but heavily stained. The hotel provided slippers for us to wear which was great. A little tiny disappointed that when the room was cleaned on day 3 of our 4 night stay our cups were not washed or changed. Honestly that was the worst of it we were very happy and comfortable in the room. ##### Munazza Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Margaret 26 May 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness Stayed three nights and there were a few bumps along the way. First, not sure if it was the hotel or Expedia but the email for check-in instructions was never received. I did figure out that there is an app for check-in, which was important as I was arriving close to reception closing time. Easy app to use, and they release your door code to you at 3PM so you have it available when you get there. The app however says check-in, skip reception and go straight to your room. Do not skip reception! Went out for a bit after dropping off bags and got back to the room and they had wiped out the check-in. Called the emergency number and they completed the check-in steps that reception would have done. Nothing more frustrating than to realize you can’t get in your room where all of your belongings are! Second, I arrived just before 10PM and there was a sign in reception that said it was open until 11. Well there was no one there so wouldn’t have been able to complete those steps. Third, as recent reviews have said - the room needs a deep clean. Just had an overall feeling of ‘not clean’. Fourth - yes the bathrooms are tiny! But that at least was known. ##### Margaret Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Zentis Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Zentis-Osaka.h53138469.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Cordia Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hotel-Cordia-Osaka.h18406432.Hotel-Information) > > [Swissotel Nankai Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Swissotel-Nankai-Osaka.h4433.Hotel-Information) > > [HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT VITA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hotel-Universal-Port-Vita.h22632329.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Osaka Umeda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Moxy-Osaka-Shin-Umeda.h56512288.Hotel-Information) > > [Imperial Hotel Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Imperial-Hotel-Osaka.h45948.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Canvas - Osaka Kitahama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Canvas-Osaka-Kitahama.h31967640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Keihan Yodoyabashi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hotel-Keihan-Yodoyabashi.h17416154.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hilton-Osaka.h1179.Hotel-Information) > > [Resol Hotel Trinity Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Resol-Hotel-Trinity-Osaka.h44224601.Hotel-Information) > > [THE LIVELY OSAKA HONMACHI](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-The-Lively-Honmachi-Osaka.h37127750.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Málaga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malaga-Hotels.d312.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Best Western Plus Hotel Fino Osaka Kitahama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Hotel-Fino-Osaka-Kitahama.h33559938.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Hotel Iconic Osaka Midosuji](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Iconic-Osaka-Midosuji.h39192278.Hotel-Information) > > [HOTEL UNIVERSAL PORT](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hotel-Universal-Port.h1843275.Hotel-Information) > > [BAKURO by DOYANEN](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-DOYANEN-HOTELS-BAKURO.h45815235.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Hankyu RESPIRE OSAKA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hotel-Hankyu-RESPIRE-OSAKA.h35881577.Hotel-Information) > > [Osaka View Hotel Honmachi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Osaka-View-Hotel-Honmachi.h23127660.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel New Otani Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hotel-New-Otani-Osaka.h178548.Hotel-Information) > > [Toyoko Inn Osaka Umeda Higashi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Toyoko-Inn-Osaka-Umeda-Higashi.h17371783.Hotel-Information) > > [Sotetsu Fresa Inn Yodoyabashi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Sotetsu-Fresa-Inn-Yodoyabashi.h88142721.Hotel-Information) > > [RIHGA Royal Hotel Osaka, Vignette Collection by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-RIHGA-Royal-Hotel-Osaka.h467062.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Wing International Select Osaka Umeda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Hotel-Wing-International-Select-Osaka-Umeda.h23127337.Hotel-Information) > > [LIBER HOTEL OSAKA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Liber-Hotel-At-Universal-Studios-Japan.h35057638.Hotel-Information) > > [Cross Hotel Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Cross-Hotel-Osaka.h6311.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Conrad-Osaka.h17310194.Hotel-Information) > > [APA Hotel Osaka Higobashi Ekimae](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Osaka-Higobashi-Ekimae.h3895692.Hotel-Information) > > [Oriental Hotel Universal City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-ORIENTAL-HOTEL-UNIVERSAL-CITY.h68823132.Hotel-Information) ### Packages > [Italy Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Italy.d86.Holidays-City-Breaks)
