Oyasumi manga hotel

It was a bit disappointing to find several hairs on the bed sheets. The floor material might make dirt more noticeable, but it was quite dirty, which might be an issue for germaphobes. The good points were that the amenities were well-stocked, and there was an extension cord, so charging devices wasn't a problem. However, the best aspects were the excellent location right next to the station and the great value for money.

This guesthouse is super easy to find, and the price is much cheaper than hotels near Shin-Imamiya or Dobutsuen-mae. Self check-in also means no worries about the front desk closing at midnight. The location is quite convenient: just a few minutes' walk from Nankai Railway's Haginochaya Station and Osaka Metro's Hanazonocho Station. It's only 6 minutes to Shinsaibashi by subway, 15 minutes to Tennoji, 18 minutes to Osaka (Nishi-Umeda), and 20 minutes to Shin-Osaka. The Nankai Railway offers direct access to Kansai Airport and Namba. JR Osaka Station is also less than half an hour away from Kyoto and Kobe. It's about a fifteen-minute walk to JR Shin-Imamiya Station, where you can take the Osaka Loop Line directly to Shin-Osaka, Nara, and Wakayama. Nankai Shin-Imamiya Station is right next to the JR station, making transfers very convenient. The key box is easy to find, just inside the sliding door on the first floor. Although I was traveling with a backpack, the stairs are quite narrow and steep, which might be a bit challenging for guests with large luggage. The first-floor room is located outside the stairwell. There are fast-food restaurants like Matsuya on the main street. Unfortunately, there's only one Lawson convenience store nearby, with no FamilyMart or 7-Eleven. Inside, there's Wi-Fi, an electric stove, a kettle, cutlery, a bathtub, a separate wet/dry toilet, and a washlet. The manual for the storage-type electric water heater states that a single use provides 15 minutes of hot water, but showering and bathing were absolutely fine. Shoes are prohibited inside the room, which has a small genkan (entrance area). Trash bins are located outside on the first floor, and trash must be disposed of within designated times. Hygiene inside the room was acceptable, though some neglected spots like under the table and by the bed weren't perfectly clean. Regarding noise, since it's in the Nishinari area, there can occasionally be some noise from passersby at night, but so far, I haven't encountered any safety issues. I personally felt the room was a bit small, but it was sufficient for one person. I'd suggest removing the rarely used stove to make the room feel more spacious, and adding chairs and a more proper table would make it even more comfortable. Hope to see you again next time!

Stayed at this hotel from August 23-24, 2026. The accommodation offers good value for money and a great location. It's a short walk to the Y-shaped blue line subway station, and there's a supermarket right in front of it. If you're traveling in the morning, you can walk from the hotel to Shin-Imamiya Station to catch the first train to Kansai Airport. The first train departs at 5:17 AM, costs 970 yen, and arrives at KIX around 5:59 AM. The walk from the hotel to the station takes about 15-20 minutes. For check-in, the hotel will send the key box code via email around 2:00-2:30 PM on the day of arrival. It's a self-check-in process. The room comes with air conditioning, a water heater, an electric stove, towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, and conditioner.

The accommodation has two bathrooms, with the shower and toilet separate. It would be great if there were staff at the hotel.

The owner was incredibly kind and accommodating, even with my continuous requests. The accommodation itself was clean and lovely. I'll definitely stay here again if I come back to Osaka! It was also great to have the option to cook.

Everything was perfect, I'm really happy with the accommodation. Highly recommended!

This hotel felt like a converted apartment building! I noticed a lot of international guests, and the owner was Chinese. While some of the systems were a little unclear, considering its proximity to the station and the price, I thought it was a good deal!

It would be perfect with a microwave.

The room was clean, but there was an electronic hum audible throughout the day.
