not a backpacker hostel, no communal area, the shower times are silly, difficult to communicate - so got put after 1 night

if can provide wireless internet would be very appreciate...

Japanese style rooms were a novelty, free internet which is good. it has a midnight curfew, which isnt ideal, but overall a good place to stay. If you do stay here when you get out the metro station double back on yourself and the hostel is straight down the road!!

It is a traditional japanses style accommodation.If you don't mind the public shower,it's accepatble with cheap price.But one unsatisfactory thing was that I found a very big cockroach in my room.Very scary and horrible.

The hostel isn't the greatest, but it suited my needs for the night (cheap, simple, close to subway). The security is fine, but the neighborhood is interesting. There isn't anything to do in the hostel but use the internet, other than that, I sucessfully wasted some time at the shopping mall down the road. I was just waiting to leave Japan, so if you are looking to actually stay and see Osaka, probably not the best choice.

This place is in a dodgy area of Osaka. Lots of homeless people on the street on the walk to the "Hotel". One of the staff members we met spoke broken key-word English but the others didn't. The place is very run down, extremely basic, but the room has air-con which was the bonus for us! If you're gonna be out all day and just need somewhere to crash then this place would be ok. But it's not a "warm" place to just "hang out" in during the day etc.
