満足です!
Pros:

1泊の予約でしたが、仕事の会食が長引きチェックインが夜中(朝方近く)になってしまったのですが、とても丁寧にご対応いただけました。フロントでの短いやり取りですが、ホスピタリティの高さが伺えました。

Buona base per esplorare Osaka
Pros:

Collegato benissimo con la metro. Staff molto accogliente, ci ha preso i bagagli anche prima del check-in e ci ha fornito gli ombrelli (…quel giorno pioveva). Colazione buona e varia.

Cons:

La stanza era davvero piccola, da un lato il letto matrimoniale era accostato al muro. Comunque abbiamo dormito bene!

Great stay and would absolutely stay again!
Pros:

Loved the location and the friendliness of the staff. Bonus that there was a central smoking room for my husband. Having washer and dryers was a huge plus. Great value.

Cons:

We were a little disappointed that our room looked out onto a wall of another building, but not a game changer. Wish they had larger garbage cans in the rooms. This may sound weird but if you stay you will understand. :)

Pros:

這個住宿是在地鐵站的上面,非常的方便。從大阪火車站梅田過來的話,搭乘御堂筋線到淀屋橋站,只要一站,基本上10分鐘內就可抵達。從地鐵北邊出口出站,不過要出來的時候,稍微會有一點找不到路,要往京阪本線的方向走,而且是要往京阪本線1到7號的出口方向。 繼續走到第16號出口,B1就會有電梯可以直接到達旅館。

旅館的南邊走路3分鐘,就有全家便利商店,旁邊還有幾家餐廳,有大阪燒跟章魚燒,大概還有居酒屋,晚上非常熱鬧,大概都開到11點,雖然我沒有嘗試,但是經過的時候看到很多人。

飯店的種種設計都很實在,也很貼心。一般這種經濟的商業旅館,電梯在經過大廳的時候都會停,但是這家並沒有這樣,省掉了一些時間。進房之後,連房卡都不用插在牆上,他們特別在牆上掛了一個像是房卡的紙卡,直接用那個插進去就好了,房卡可以收好。
早餐也還蠻多樣的,可以嘗試。

飯店所在位置是在中之島的南邊一點,如果要參訪中之島上面的美術館或者是圖書館非常的方便。特別是離大阪市立東洋陶瓷美術館,走路只要3分鐘,非常推薦。 總之島上還有香雪美術館以及中之島美術館,都很不錯。

un agréable séjour
Pros:

Chambre agréable même si toujours un peu petite avec 2 grosses valises à ouvrir
Buffet petit déjeuner très complet, japonais et continental, très bon
Emplacement de l'hôtel au dessus du métro, et cerise sur le gâteau, accessible directement par ascenseur, donc très pratique , et quand on loge dans les étages , on n'entend rien.

Cons:

rien

Simple to get to subway with elevator taking your straight down to route tunnel.
Easy quick check in & out.
