They sent me โthe check in time is 3pm.โ But until 4pm no staff came and the inside was very crazy. No locks, no safes(it had but the safes didnโt work as safes. It was just shelves). And besides, A woman has to stay in man dorm. This place is the worst in Japan. I couldnโt believe it was the hostel in Japan..
The lodge was closed when I showed up (though I had a reservation) so I stood outside for a while until the owner came out of a restaurant next door. There was then some back and forth on whether I would walk 25 mins or be driven to another hotel he owns across Osaka. At the place I finally ended up, the bed was comfortable and relatively spacious for a hostel, but the bathroom was gross (the sink didnโt drain, the toilet and counter were dirty). But it wouldโve been nice to know about the closure before arrival.
Never ooened when I arrived till 30 minutes later and raining someone told me that the admin was in a pizza place..Since I arrive until I left there was no internet. The room smell alot of smoke. The person from the room of the side smoked and never the administrartor say nothing. Aldo grtting there is difficult because google maps at first shows a different location.
What a great hostel! The location is perfect, you are within walking distance of the Namba strain station, a plethora of great restaurants, markets, and Dotonbori street -a major tourist attraction. I got to know the staff by name and they went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and even helped me figure out how to work the SIM card I had bought. You get a great value for an affordable price.

The location can't get much better - a short walk away from Nipponbashi and the main Namba nightlife and shopping district. The owner's son was extremely helpful and friendly. The dorms were basic but very clean with comfortable bedding, AC and WiFi. The kitchen had cooking facilities, a television, etc. The shower room was a little run-down but I've seen worse. It was definitely value for money, especially considering the location, and I appreciated the friendliness of the owners. I'd stay there again for sure. Thank you Vitti Lodge!
We liked it there. The host was very helpful and made us a good western breakfast every morning. Bathroom was clean, size of the room suitable for 4 futons/4 people. Good location, quiet surroundings, many restaurants nearby.
I used hostel for the first time so kind of afraid and excited as well but,
unlike my worries, it was just perfect! the hostel owner was so nice that she was always willingly to help all stayers and very friendly ( It was so impressive that she even learning Korean! as a Korean girl I was really appreciated her trying !)
All bath stuff prepared, so you don't need to bring your own bath stuff and the bed was pretty comfy.
you can adjust temperature of your room with heat controller so you don't need to worry about being cold.
the location was not to tell it's convenient to wander around the city. it takes only 7 minutes from Nanba main street. Awesome!
I wish I could stay litter longer so I can spend little time with the owner. Shame I had a too tight trip schedule ;(
but I will revisit to this hostel next summer for sure :)
thanks for all your service I really enjoyed my stay in this hostel.
