Location: great location within walking distance from Metro station (Daikokucho Station), Train to KIX (Namba Station-Nankai), JR Osaka Loop Line ( Imamiya and Ashiharabashi).

We arrived in Japan at 8:00 AM, and we had to wait outside on the stones near the entrance, as we were not even allowed to come in and leave our luggage in the lobby. When 1:00 PM finally came, we checked in and went to sleep, but while we were sleeping, someone entered and left our apartment. After that, we received a rude message saying that we were ONLY allowed to leave our belongings at 1:00 PM, not to check in!
