&AND HOSTEL SHINSAIBASHI EAST

The beds in our twin economy room were by far the biggest we had during our whole trip! We really enjoyed the space after all the cramped hotel rooms. There wasn't much space apart from the beds but that's what we were expecting – everything was true to the pictures. We ended up not using the kitchen facilities so I can't comment on that, but had no problems doing laundry. The staff were also really lovely and helpful!

Have three subway stations nearby(three different lines), within walking distance, so you can easily go anywhere by subway. The room size is good enough for one person, equipped with a hairdryer, and towel(at least for this type of room), and a TV to watch which is pretty good. The AC is not the central type, so you can adjust the room temperature by yourself. They have a kitchen for guests to use.

The location was very cute! The common rooms were very nice, there were public kitchen amenities, as well as board games and books. The room itself was very charming and the bed was great. At the reception, there was an inspiration book available for recommended places to eat as well as things to do. Walking to areas like Dotonbori and Osaka Palace was certainly doable. Metro stops were somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes away. The Family Mart on the corner of the street is nice.

I had an amazing experience at this hostel in Osaka! Not only was it incredibly clean and comfortable, with a great location but the staff were also exceptionally friendly and helpful. I lost my backpack at the airport, and the staff assisted me by calling the airport and ensuring that the information about my missing luggage was relayed to the hostel. I only stayed for two nights before moving to another hostel that couldn’t accept my backpack if it was found. However, the staff at &AND HOSTEL SHINSAIBASHI EAST were so helpful and agreed to stay in contact with the airport and receive my luggage even after I had checked out. A few days after my stay, I received an email from the hostel informing me that they had received my backpack and would keep it safe until I could pick it up. Their kindness and excellent service truly stood out. I highly recommend this hostel!

Friendly staff, family mart beside the hotel, a few minutes walk to 3 different metro stations, clean rooms, doors were a bit thin, but overall a great stay! 😊 There's a communal kitchen which we never used cause we dine out always. Extra thanks to the friendly warm staff. Room size was bigger than other hotels in Japan. We opened our luggages without problem and it could stay open w/o blocking walkways inside the room.
