Good hostel, however it's not the cheapest and most central place. The rooms are spacious enough, showers clean and staff friendly. Thin walls though, so if you are a light sleeper you will appreciate the earplugs they provide. They don't have a washer/dryer in the hostel, but there is a coin operated laundromat just a few steps down the street (take a left if you leave the hostel).

Room is OK, but only has 1 VERY bright light source, which I found quite annoying. Bed is comfortable, but I did not sleep very well due to all the noise coming from the hallway both at night and in the (early) morning. Showers and toilets are separated, but are in good condition.
Very very basic. No breakfast, elevator or laundry facilities, thank God we were only on the second floor. The rooms are very small and we had a private room advertised as with an ensuite but it was only a very small shower, no room to dry yourself or anything before hitting the bed. Other than this the only other showers were on the bottom floor. Stall were okay, some didn't speak English well and we were told differing information about lock out and where to go. Also not in the best neighbourhood, didn't feel that safe out at night. All in all, wasn't worth the price, nice exterior NOT interior and would not travel to again.
Pretty good. It's not fancy, but good enough, it's cheap anyway, you pay for what you get. It's clean and the people here are pretty friendly too. Only the sound proof isn't good, rather then that, I'd love to stay for more.
Nice, clean, contemporary look! We stayed in a private with four beds (bunk beds). The room was small (very narrow) but it had a TV, an electric kettle, slippers, and towels (one bath, one hand) on the beds. Also a quick walk to the subway, and VERY close to Spa World! One thing that was troublesome was that noise echoes through the hallways and stairwells. If you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs! :( Otherwise you might get woken up multiple times during the night.
Stayed in a 2 bed room. Decent size and very clean, 24 hour desk was helpful. Good location for going out in namba.
Was very affordable, it was one room with a heat pump. Rooms can be cleaned when you are out if you are staying more than one night. Very close to the train.
Very good hostel. Clean rooms, great friendly staff and right on top of the dobutsuen mae subway station for convenient travel throughout Osaka.
