Nice hotel, boring location.
Hotel was nice enough. Fairly decent sized rooms, certainly bigger than the hotels in Tokyo. Very clean. Decent breakfast. Only disappointing thing was the location. There really isn't that much to do. Thankfully the hotel is next to a station

Easy to find location. Close to subway with easy access to all of Osaka. Room is clean and neat. Breakfast is great but some of the customers are from countries without good manners or common courtesy.

Hotel near a railway station
Bets western not clearly mentioned. Actual name Oskar dreams. Very close if you get out of station by exit 5. Otherwise have to drag luggage up stairs. No elevator or escalator. Double rooms are of different sizes. Have to check the size. Otherwise really small.

Convenient
It was a very good stay, the room is incredibly comfortable and quite large. It is in a really good location with many restaurants (Mastuya and Rikuro bakery) and stuff to go see (Suminoe temple/park). We could have taken a train from the airport, but opted for a taxi instead. It costs us around 12000 yen. We arrived around 9am, and checkin isn't until 3. They were unable to give us a room until 2pm, which was very nice of them. They didn't have any English speakers on staff until around 1pm, so it was difficult for us to understand how long we needed to wait unil something was ready. Overall, 4/5
