You may find this inn comfy and cozy if you don't need a very high class hotel, you may consider reserving a room here. Don't expect TV! Have a nice sleep, energize yourself and get prepared for your next day!
Here's my opinion on this hotel: Cozy and comfy. Frontdesk staff can speak English if you are not very confident with your Japanese. They would happily answer your question. Easy access to nearby venue. Subway station Niponbashi Station (日本橋駅) is almost nearby.You also don't need to walk for long distance for food and shopping, famous Shinsaibashi (心斎橋) and Doudonhori (道頓堀) and Kuromon Market (黒門市場) are around. LAN network provided, network cable required. Small refrigerator provided. Pretty clean.
If you don't smoke, you may feel a little cigarette smell if last customer smoked and lived in the same room. However, I think they have done their best to deal with this. The sound insulation can be improved, especially for the room against the nearby alley.

The first this i would say, is make sure you have good directions to get there, as the streets and alleys are a bit of a maze till you get to know your way around the place. As people have said, you can smell smoke in the reception area, but we never smelt it anywhere else in the hotel room. All the staff that we spoke to and dealt with were very polite, and even though some of them only spoke basic english, we were able to understand them, and to be fair, we are in Japan, so we should be learning Japanese, not the other way round lol. We booked a twin room, as this gave us more space. The room was a little dusty, but the beds were comfy, and the bathroom was stocked with all your basic needs in mind. Although the breakfast was basic, and the same everyday, i quite enjoyed it. The hotel is in a great location, and very close to Dotonbori. We were told that the front door was going to be locked from Midnight till 6am, and although this was fine for us, we arent really nightbirds, it might be a problem for some people. I thought the hotel was good value for money for what we paid, and i would definitely stay...
