Great place to stay. This was our 2nd Apa hotel on our trip. Clean, friendly staff, short walk to Shin Osaka train station. Air conditioning was cold and operated well. I loved the larger bath tub. Breakfast was delicious, nutritious and a great price. Check-in and check out was very easy.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The rooms were clean and it serves well as a place to stay. Not too far away from the station and at the same time, the area is not overly crowded. No transfers needed to go from KIX to the station by the hotel.
I think the only setback is that there are so many APA hotels in the area where we stayed, which can make it a little confusing to get to the right one without accidentally going to a different hotel. I believe there were three APA hotels quite close to each other, and their names were very similar.
That said, the staff were great, and the rooms were very clean. The rooms are quite small, and the bathroom is elevated, so you may need to take an extra step when getting in and out of the bathroom.
Overall, it was still a great experience. The hotel is very conveniently located near the station, and there are multiple konbini (convenience stores) nearby, which makes it very convenient for grabbing food, drinks, and other essentials.
The hotel is near the station which makes it very convenient. The room is a bit small but it was enough for two people. The bathroom was clean as well as the bedroom. The washer and dryer machines are for small loads, and they don't clean as well as a public one, but they get the job done. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was delicious (it was a buffet so it had a lot of options).
There were some convenience stores and restaurants nearby. Very convenient. Excellent staff. Clean. The only problem was the size of the room. Very small for 2 people with 3 suitcases but expected.
Great amenities. Bed bed has multiple charger outlets, 2 water bottles provided, tv provides tons of info including the ability to extend the checked out time with ease. Close to the train station, has coin operated laundry and the breakfast buffet is really good.
Enjoyed the breakfast, and proximity to Shinkansen station and a local Izakaya (pub). Room was a bit small, bathroom difficult to get into. Service staff suggested asking for different room, but this one was good, just not perfect. Bed had plenty of space for 2. Staff very friendly and helpful. Carpet looked like it could use some cleaning.
Our room had to be changed due to some chemicals left in the room. Then the fan didn't work in the new room. However the staff made their best effort to find a portable unit to improve ventilation. We opened a window in the meantime but couldn't get it shut securely afterwards. Very close to station so it was handy for travelling though one night.
The room was so clean and very comfortable considering that it was small but it was nice. Amenities were provided with toothbrushes, HAIR BANDS, shavers etc. Also pretty much everyday, the housekeepers will leave clean towels outside our doors.
There were Lawsons, Family Mart AND 711 on the same road of where the hotel is located.
Other than that, the bad and not so bad about the place was our AC. It wasn’t working and the air was making me and my spouse’s throat hurt. But it was okay cause it was cold and so we opened the window.
Highly recommend staying here it was above all comfortable.
