MAIDO - DOYANEN HOTELS
"Beds are just mattresses put on the floor. Ammenities were in a public common space, not at all convenient. The space to put shoes was extremely tiny, you take one step and it already transitions to the rest of the room. Water for the shower is shared with the sink and only one can be used at a time. ..."

Shin-Imamiya Hotel
Osaka Marriott Miyako Hotel
"The hotel is really nice with the best view of Osaka. Friendly staff. Well located for visiting Osaka (dotonburi, etc) but no so much for day trips as it is 20 to 25 minutes away from Osaka and shin Osaka stations adding that amount of time to any day trip, but it is manageable ."

"This property had a lot of different amenities that was useful. The room itself was huge and it felt like an apartment that someone could live in. I especially love the laundry machine in the room, stove, and other things like the balcony looking over Osaka."
