Good location, with good food, bars and convenient store nearby. Clean and decently spacious rooms as well. But for some reason hotel gate password was changed abruptly without notification and we were locked out at late night and need to call assistance to open the door.

We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our convenient location and that you found the room clean and comfortable.We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the change of the entrance code.

We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a smoother and more enjoyable stay.-Wayfarer Shinsaibashi

The hotel uses a self check-in method, but the concierge was very helpful when I had trouble checking in via the mobile app. The hotel is situated about a 10-minute walk from the touristy spots such as Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi-suji, so its location encourages lots of walking. Not great for those that would like quick access to their destinations. I stayed on the second floor for four nights and there was a lot of noise in the corridor/on the floor above in the middle of the night. I assume it’s the hotel staff cleaning the rooms or doing maintenance. Something to take note of if you’re a light sleeper.
Response from Property: Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad our staff could assist with check-in and that you enjoyed the location near Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi.We’re sorry to hear about the noise. Your comments are much appreciated and help us improve.We hope to welcome you again for a more comfortable stay.-WAYFARER Shinsaibashi

The hotel is conveniently located near the Nihonbashi and Nagahoribashi subway stations, and Shinsaibashi is an 8-minute walk away. There's a FamilyMart nearby, so you can check in online before arriving and check in directly. The room isn't huge, but it's perfectly adequate for a solo traveler. The bathroom is a bit small, but unfortunately, it doesn't have a bidet. Overall, the value for money is acceptable.

The floor of the room is very dirty, the space is small, the soundproofing of the room is average, and you can hear the sound of construction in the morning.

The location is between Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi, so it's close to both. It's nice that it's not noisy, and the water pressure is the best!!!!!

Overall, it was a good hotel, but the only downside was the lack of laundry facilities and the lack of a laundry service for stays longer than four days. However, that doesn't mean I wasn't satisfied. I was satisfied with my seven-night stay.

What else would you want at this price? Although it doesn't have a smart toilet, it's still a good value. The front desk service was excellent, and the hotel is in a quiet location amidst the city. Overall, it's a great value.

The hotel is very nice, with quick and easy access to the shopping and dining areas. It's about 8 minutes from the metro and has good connections. The staff is very friendly. I missed the laundry service, or I didn't find it.

You can check in and check out through your mobile phone, which is very convenient. The room is a password lock, so you don't have to think about bringing your key. Check out is at 11 o'clock, which is good. Many Japanese hotels and B&Bs are at 10 o'clock. The hygiene in the room is not as good as other Japanese hotels. The hair dryer is full of lint, which causes a burnt smell after using it for a while. This is the only drawback.

The room is clean and tidy, suitable for business travelers. The location is good, with FamilyMart at the intersection. It is about 300 meters walk to Dotonbori and about 500 meters away from the subway station.
