BON Hostel — Hotel in Osaka

I like that it was a cheap, clean and comfortable place that I was able to share with 5 of my friends. It was only a 10mins walk from the train station and taxis were easy to find as well. The place reminded me of a U.S. college dorm where the bathroom and shower room were down the hall from the bedroom. My room had six comfy bunk beds and each bed had 1 conveniently placed 2-pronged U.S. wall outlet and light. I was happy to find a wall adapter to buy so that I could plug in my 3-pronged laptop charger. The room had cabinets for me to store my bags but no food/drinks are allowed inside. They did have a neat café attached to the reception area though for your breakfast and lunch needs. Ensure you bring your own towel, rag/loofa, shower gel and lotion or you'll have to buy/rent them from the owners. It was slightly inconvenient that we had to remove our shoes before going to our rooms but that's the Japanese custom so... Take it or leave it. No washers or dryers either. I was definitely happy that they offered umbrellas to borrow during my stay since it randomly started to rain before I left. Basically, as long as you're okay with living affordably in a dorm style building, this is the...

My recent stay at this hostel in Japan was a delightful experience overall. The staff were welcoming and provided efficient service throughout my time there. The dormitory room I stayed in was clean and cozy, offering a comfortable atmosphere for a good night's rest.

I particularly enjoyed the hostel's location, which was conveniently situated near public transportation options and within walking distance of various attractions. This made it easy for me to explore the city and immerse myself in the local culture without any hassle.

Overall, I would recommend this hostel to fellow travelers seeking budget-friendly accommodation in a convenient location. It may not have all the bells and whistles of a luxury hotel, but it offers everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable...

The location is quite good, about 15-20 min walk to Dotonbori, with easy access to bus and metro, convenience stores and restaurants. If there is something about the location that is a bit annoying is the fact that it is right under a train railway which is very noisy and inconvenient when you're trying to sleep but it's not like they didn't warn you.||The 6-people rooms are wide and clean with a locker for each person, the capsules are quite spacious and include two sockets. However, I was very cold at night and would have appreciated a second blanket or heating.||The bathrooms were incredibly clean. A towel, shampoo, body soap and hair conditioner were included for free. However, again, the shower room was very very cold and I had quite a bad time before and after showering.||The staff was very friendly, although some of them had some problems to communicate in English.||The common room (actually a café) is quite spacious, clean and simple.||Overall, I had a very good experience and would...
