Apartment Hotel 11 Namba Minami IV

I came to Osaka from Kyoto that day. When I arrived near my accommodation, I was followed by a suspicious man and finally decided to give up staying. Because the accommodation is relatively far away from the busy area and subway station, if a woman is traveling alone in Japan, it is recommended to choose carefully. I originally wanted to ask for a refund, but trip.com was unable to refund me due to regulations, so I lost almost 1,000 Hong Kong dollars🥲

Apartment-style hotel, the room is newly decorated, but the area is not large. Tableware, induction cooker, washing machine, microwave, refrigerator and other household appliances are provided, and there is a balcony for drying clothes. The location is in a residential area in the center of Osaka. Mxvalue supermarket is just across the road, and it takes 6 minutes to walk to Kizu seafood market. Those who are willing to cook can bring their own seasonings and buy vegetables to the hotel to eat. The hotel provides disposable slippers, toothbrushes and toothpaste, but they are not changed daily. The room is not cleaned daily, and the garbage needs to be thrown into the garbage storage next to the garage on the first floor when it is full. The good news is that the garbage bags are large and do not need to be sorted. Convenient transportation, measured to walk to Daikokucho subway station for five minutes, JR Imamiya station for 6 minutes, and Namba subway station for 15 minutes. To go to Universal, you can take the JR Imamiya to take four stops to Nishi-Kujo, and go directly to the other side of the platform to transfer to the special line to Universal and Sakurajima, which is two stops away. Special attention should be paid to the return platform transfer. Only the ordinary express loop line will stop at Imamiya Station. There are many trains stopping at Nishi-Kujo, and it is easy to take the wrong train.

The room is not very high, and the size is spacious for Japan. There is a balcony from the bedside. There are refrigerators and washing machines. There is also an electric stove. The overall facilities are like a standard apartment. Let's talk about the disadvantages. First, there is a peculiar smell. It was especially obvious on the first day of check-in. It got better after opening the balcony for ventilation on the second day. I didn't sleep well on the first day. The second point is that the washing machine has no drying function. The customer service asked me to dry the clothes on the balcony. But it has been raining in Osaka for several days. This is a bit inconvenient. The location is not far from the subway station, but it is definitely not close. The surrounding businesses, restaurants and supermarkets are more than ten minutes away. Other than that, there are no problems and the price-performance ratio is high.

Facilities: Because it is a homestay, there are washing machines, refrigerators, microwaves, cooking utensils (two small pots and an induction cooker), dishes, detergents, dishwashing sponges. You can buy raw food from the nearby supermarket to cook, or heat up cooked food to eat. It feels very convenient and you can also better experience the life of locals. The space in the room is very reasonable. There are two places to spread out the suitcases as soon as you enter the door. The price-performance ratio is unbeatable. Hygiene: Warm and clean. Because it is newly renovated, the overall facilities feel very new, and the toilets and bathrooms are also clean. Environment: The surrounding area is relatively quiet. It is a short but relatively close walking distance from the subway station. You can see the scenery of the surrounding streets and alleys. It is very convenient to Shinsaibashi and Universal Studios. There are about six or seven rooms on one floor. The sound insulation feels very good and I didn’t hear any disturbing sounds. Service: Self-service check-in, you can see the check-in guide one or two days in advance, and you will also receive a notice of self-service check-out. According to the guide, register your passport information on the website and check in after 4 pm. It feels smooth. Contact the hotel customer service from Ctrip chat and the reply is very fast.

Great!!! The room is quite big, with a pot and induction cooker, you can buy discounted wagyu beef from the supermarket and cook it at home, and there is a washing machine, which is very convenient. It is about 8 minutes walk from the subway entrance, there is no bathtub, and self-service check-in.
