Location is awesome. Staff was friendly and helpful. They accept and ship luggage. Check in and check out process was straight forward. The rooms are small, but there is plenty of room under the bed to store your luggage.
Rooms are Japanese business hotel small. You aren't moving around much in the room with 2 people in the room. You aren't going to fully unpack your luggage. Picture it as staying in an RV sized place. If you are looking for a place to stay for a few nights near Dotoboni, it's worth looking in to. Anything more than a few days, and need more space, I would say look for something else.

The hotel is very conveniently located right at Dotonbori canal, but still quiet. The rooms are small but my wife and I had enough space and never felt that the room was too small. The whole interior design is very modern with lots of well thought through details and beds are comfortable. The personal was very helpful. I had left a pullover in my room and they made it possible to send it to my next hotel in Tokyo on time. This was such a pleasant experience, thank you so much! Oh and we loved the free pancakes and enjoyed the automated pancake machine. Awesome experience.

Pros:The best Location!! It is a 3-5 min walk to Dotonbori glico man and about 7-10 min walk to shinsaibashi shopping area, Namba station. It has a nice patio overlooking the river. Unlimited coffee, tea and pancakes. Room has individual AC unit which is a good thing. We prefer room temp at 68 F when sleeping. Staff were accommodating, we got fresh towels everyday. The shampoo conditioner and body wash were of high quality. Cons: they don’t clean the room everyday.

The hotel is very centrally location in Dotonburi Osaka, but worth noting if you would prefer a quieter area it might not be for you as the streets outside are very busy at all times. The staff were extremely helpful prior to our arrival in answering my questions and friendly during my stay.
The twin room was very compact, the smallest we encountered during our trip, and we struggled in the room having 2 large cases.

Great location, friendly staff. Free tea and coffee throughout except the breakfast time period.
No daily cleaning, extremely small rooms. Also they provide us with a basket to leave dirty towels outside and they put a set of clean towel in it for us to use. I wonder if they clean the basket before putting the fresh towels in it. If not I find it disgusting. We put our floor mat in it as well.

This was such a perfect place near Dotonburi! It was right on the river and it was perfect. The rooms are small, however it is expected in Japan. We did not eat the breakfast buffet in the morning because we wanted to eat at other places. The free pancake after breakfast hours was also super adorable. Definitely a very convenient hotel in Osaka!

Location of the hotel was 5 minutes walk away from the main Dotonbori strip which was very good for ease of access into the main shopping and restaurant area. It was also 1 minute walk away from Don Quixote (not the main one with the ferris wheel) so buying last minute souvenirs was also convenient.
The rooms are quite small. Not surprising for a hotel that is so centrally located but something to be aware of especially if travelling around with big suitcases.

Loved the location in Dotomburi even though it was so close to the action it was quiet and relaxing where we were. The beds were so comfy the bathroom was quite big. Very clean. Blackout blinds. Easy to have luggage under the bed. Great to have laundry facility. All staff were so helpful and friendly.

Very well located, within 5 minutes walk from major train station Osaka Namba, which we used a lot to move around and go to Nara, and very close but far enough from the main touristic hotspot of Dotonbori.
Small and simple but you do not need more. Only real issue is that it only has one elevator, which at times can get crowded.

Lovely hotel in a great location. Only a 5 minute walk from Namba station. Beds were very comfortable and rooms very clean. Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Rooms though not large were still the biggest we stayed in during our trip to Japan. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
