I booked this hotel last minute during Golden Week in Japan. Because the price was so great at such a busy time of year, I was expecting it to be a grimy hotel. Boy, was I wrong! The hotel was super clean and pristine looking, with a beautiful eating area, a little bit of workout equipment, and a free coffee maker in the lobby. It was a short walk (about 5 minutes) from Nakatsu Station, which is only one stop over from Umeda, and about a 17 minute walk from Umeda if you were to miss the last subway run. The local area was quiet, with plenty of convenience stores a short walk away. The only "drawback" was that the room was super small, but almost every Japanese hotel I've been to is designed the same way, so I wasn't bothered by it. Also, the room booking said we were getting one twin bed, but it was bigger than expected, more like a double. My best friend and I really enjoyed our time here, and we would stay here again.
