Homestays in Osaka Prefecture, Japan

I had a lovely stay at Jakotel. I booked for 5 nights and it was one of the best hostel experiences I have ever had. It is not a social hostel but there is a small hangout area on the 2nd floor. The hostel is strategically located in a quiet area of Namba - super close to the subway, kuromon market, and the bustling area of dotonbori. It is also walking distance to many tourist attractions, and there is a laundromat closeby. I'd definitely stay again in the future.

Staff impressions: Matter of fact, good command of english, helpful. Room amenities: we stayed in a Japanese style room. It felt *very* recently updated. Tatami was fresh, wood looked new, en suite bathroom was very modern. Had a TV, mini-fridge, safe, microwave, induction cooktop (but no pans). Beds were futons, clean, new, pretty typical in terms of comfort. Ductless heater/AC. Room oddities, if you're not from Japan or haven't traveled in Japan before: 1) The lights/AC/power will not turn on until you drop your key in a slot on the wall by the door. 2) There is a panel on the wall that has a number in Celsius. This is the temperature control for the how tater heater for your bathroom. If you don't turn this on before your shower you won't get hot water! :) 3) The overhead light *can* be turned off at night. One of the remote controls in the room is the controller for the overhead light. Don't take your key out to turn off the light, it'll kill your AC/heat. 4) The level of service you typically receive in a Japanese hotel room like all linens replaced every day, bathroom stuff (toothbrush, toothpaste, soaps, shoes, etc.) being replaced, etc. will not happen. Didn't bother me as I don't care for that but it might be off putting if you're used to it but the price is great. 5) Ductless AC/heater is controlled with a remote control. Location: About 900m to the closest train station which can be a haul with your bags. Super close to Nippombashi which was a big selling point for us. Kinda on a side street so quiet and empty at night.

It’s my first time for my family to travel independently. I’m so lucky to have booked such a good hotel👍 The room was very clean and any issues were dealt with quickly. The location is very close to Shinsaibashi. , my family is very satisfied👍, I will definitely stay here again next time I come to Osaka It is also very suitable for the whole family. This time our family of 5 stayed.

First of all, the location is great. It's right in front of Dotonbori and in the center, so it's convenient. You can also leave your luggage in advance! I made a reservation when there were no reviews, but contrary to my worries, the staff were very friendly and the facilities were good. They explained things very well and responded quickly to inquiries! Next time I go to Osaka, I'll definitely make a reservation again. The price is reasonable and it's a place I want to keep to myself. Thanks to them, I had a fun and comfortable trip:)

The Korean owner is really friendly, and it is the best Korean bed and breakfast in Osaka that has everything you need despite being cheap. It's not too far from the station, so accessibility is good, and Tsutenkaku is right next to it, so it's good to start the Osaka Amazing Pass tour early in the morning (the line for Tsutenkaku is really long, so I think it's better to do it first). There weren't many people when I went, so I wouldn't call it a party. It was simple, but I really enjoyed it with the owner and the guests. It was such a pleasant memory, and I will definitely come back again the next time I visit Osaka. I was having so much fun that I didn’t take any pictures… There was a photo of me stretching out after drinking.. 😅

The room is large, the bathroom is separated from wet and dry, there is a washing machine, washing powder is provided, which is very good👍There is a small kitchen where you can cook, but there is no seasoning, you have to prepare it yourself, there is a refrigerator and a microwave! The location is very convenient. You can take the Nankai Express from the airport and get off at Tenkachaya Station, which is within walking distance. In the other direction, you can walk and take the Y Yotsubashi Line to go directly to Umeda!

Within walking distance from Namba A super convenience store is also nearby. The room is nice and clean There is no washlet in the toilet Around the kitchen no spoon fork Has a large frying pan No humidifier indoors There is a factory of 551 Horai in the back. While operating, in the hallway or indoors. I hear a lot of noise The ventilation fan in the bathroom and toilet is noisy. When turned off, the sound of multiple home appliances running even at night I hear this and it's also annoying. The hot water is tank type and has a temperature of ~80 degrees. A type that can be used to store 2 bathtubs. It takes several hours to save up again. Especially in the winter or when multiple people are using it, you will be in trouble if you don't forget to save it after each use. Press the full button twice be careful

1. Booked a 4-person room for a family of 3, with a child 130cm tall. Requested to pay the child's room rate, 2500 yen/day. 2. Stayed for 6 consecutive days, but the room was not cleaned once. 3. The room was divided by wooden boards, which made a lot of noise. The person next door opened the door with a key, and I was so scared that I thought he was opening my door. 4. I was greedy for the cheap room rate, and I deserved it!

We stayed for a few nights in a western style room. It was a really handy location. Not too noisy and close to the train station. You can easily get to pretty much anywhere from JR Shin-Imamiya and it’s only a 15 minute walk from the hotel. Also very close to a big Donquijote! The room was comfy and there is plenty of space compared to other places we stayed in Japan. The staff were brilliant and really welcoming, although it’s not a 24 hour desk but that didn’t cause us any problems. The rooms were more like apartments really but that was perfect for us. Probably if you’re looking for a hotel (with room service and daily housekeeping etc) this is not the place for you. But if you’re after something a bit more self catering like we were then this place is perfect. Our room had a little kitchenette with a fridge and microwave, which was helpful. The rooms are clean and comfy and we had a really pleasant stay. We would definitely stay again if were in Osaka. A note about the area: I was a bit nervous at first about booking a hotel in this part of Osaka because of some of the reviews I had read online, but it turned out that there was absolutely no need for any concern. Sure it’s not the fanciest part of town but, applying Western European standards, it would probably be thought fairly average. I probably would not have ventured south of Shin-Imamiya on my own but the hotel is to the north, towards Namba, so walking to and from the station at both day and night was no problem.

Very close to the station. Convenient to the airport. Very cost-effective

Staying only has to be with another family. . No waiting for showering problems. . There are many brushing positions. . 5.6. So clean. . . Does not make a dispute. . . I have not waited for the toilet. Maybe always off-season. Mid-May breakfast. I think it can. No other people said about Qizheng. But you can try family breakfast. Couples and daughters run a small shop together. . Always stay for one night. . . So clean. . Couples and daughters are very hospitable. However, staying on the 2nd floor to carry luggage. The parking lot is next to the hotel. . To the left. The host family will take you to park. Originally, e was trained as soon as I entered the room rm. Point to know the left living room with the training room. Right. . . Remember the room rm of the shadow bed, but good. And neat. . .

It was close to Rinku Town Station and it was convenient because I had a morning flight. It felt like I was at my grandma's house, which was a nostalgic feeling. Some parts are a little old, but it was clean and there were no problems with the stay. This time, the room was on the second floor, but the stairs were narrow and it was a bit difficult to get my large suitcase up and down. I'll add this to my requests next time.

I was a little uncomfortable at first Except for that, location ㆍ Cleanliness ㆍ I am satisfied If it was the direction to see the sunrise I'd love it. Five minutes from the station. Okonomiyaki ㆍ Takoyaki ㆍ Orco Pizza Restaurant ㆍ MATSUGEN SMEGIAL Mart was cheap and varied, so there was no inconvenience to use ~ It was a short trip of two nights and three days. I rest well Now, I'm going back. Kadakana Through information and receipts related to the schedule on this trip I'm going to study Japanese. Memories with the Middle Three Adds Five stars are enough. Prosper. Healthy ^^ ~

Very nice place to stay, near supermarket and station.

The room we got was a double futon on the east room upstair, as we love the traditional Japanese style. The small space has all the convenient with shared space in common area, small kitchen, bathroom and washer and dryer in the same room. Everything were tidy and functionally used all the space avail. Great water pressure and temp for the shower. The host thought of everything and provided every information avail for us tourist to use. Distance is not too far from Rinku-town station. Only cons (out of everyone control) the stair leading to the station has no elevator, which will be challenging for people with large suitcase. We are light traveler, which is not too bad for our case. Overall, great little space and affordable, short ride to Kansai Airport and save time traveling to the airport, which is a great plus since security check in at Kansai may take up to 90 mins to get through.

Let’s talk about the advantages first. It really feels like home. I have experienced the atmosphere of Japanese life in ancient times. The decoration is beautiful and the sanitation is very clean. It is difficult to clean up a building. There is no need to register, and it is convenient for the landlord to leave the key. The only drawback is that it is difficult to drive a car. The road inside is very narrow and difficult to drive. It is a 15-minute walk from the station, which is great.

This is a hostel in a homestay. The rooms are actually clean and the public areas are good. A few hundred meters from Nankai tram Izumi-Sano station. Disadvantages: first, it is far from the residence to Ole, two or three kilometers, not half an hour; second, the homestay is self-check-in, but I did not receive the check-in method and The password was repeatedly urged by Ctrip before the homeowner sent the message. As a result, the next day outside the homestay, it was found that the guest in the other room did not receive the check-in password, and waited stupidly. Fortunately, there were Chinese people cleaning the room. I hope the host can pay attention to this. But after they confirmed our identity, they helped us get our luggage into the house so that we could go shopping easily! This is a bonus.

Convenient stay, Japanese bed, affordable, convenient transportation.
