Y's HOTEL Shin Osaka

The hotel is super close to the metro station. There are plenty of markets and places to eat around the hotel where you can take care of your needs. It’s a practical hotel. If the space under the beds was empty, it would’ve been great for storing luggage and saving space, but they didn’t design it that way. The staff are really helpful. Check-in and check-out processes are handled really quickly. Check-in isn’t allowed before 3:00 PM. You can grab fresh pajamas every day from the ground floor, and the pajamas are so comfy! :) From what I understood, if you’re staying for a week, you only get room cleaning once. Other than that, towels are changed daily.

My stay in Y's Hotel Shin-Osaka was a short one but I have nothing but praise for the front desk staff who are always happy to help and always have a genuine smile on when they are wishing you a good morning. Despite the language barrier between us they helped me forward a suitcase to another hotel and answered any questions I had. The hotel is situated between two convenient station for both metro and JR lines, the neighbourhood is quiet but not without a variety of restaurants and convenience shops. The room was small so I found it difficult to have two suitcases in and still move comfortably but the price was very reasonable.

Good place to stay for a couple of days. Close to the shin Osaka metro station but a couple of minutes more away from shin Osaka station (shinkansen), there are different entrances for these 2. The breakfast they offer is a little bit simple, but nice. Little bento with different stuff plus a box of cold green tea. Everyday was a different kind of food in the bento. Staff was very nice and helpful and facilities were pretty clean. There's a dining area used as a lounge area where you can eat, work or chill. You also have free soft drinks and coffee. They have laundry machine and tumble dryer, if need coins for them you can ask reception to change your money. There's a Lawson crossing the street if you need or crave something, also a 7/eleven and a Family Mart on the way to the metro station. Free toiletries and room wear clothes at the reception area. Clean towels delivered everyday.

Very well located, between 2 major metro stations, 7 minutes to each of them. A few (7) stops to Namba Station. I loved the fact that they have an onsen in the building. The room was small, but this is customary for Japan. I found it a very good deal for the price we paid for the accomodation. There is also a smoking room next to the reception.

Let´s be honest and straight forward: the room is small but for that price, the offer is really good. In the hotel there is also a public bath (I really appreciate they removed the limited hours for tattoed people, that was at the beginning of the year), washing and drying machines and a coffee-lounge. In Japan already the budget is at risk because of the thousands of gadgets you want to buy: this hotel is definitely budget saving for more kawaii stuff! Will be back again if in the city.
