APA Hotel Osaka Umeda

This hotel was about a ten-minute walk from Osaka JR Station, albeit a quite difficult one if you don’t know where you are going. My room was super clean and had everything I needed, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. I read complaints about the elevated road right by the hotel, but I didn’t have any problems sleeping. There is also a 7-11 a few steps away.

Great hotel - overpriced breakfast but spa is terrific. Close enough to the station and walkable Rooms are definitely small - it’s true you can barely open your suitcase I should have put 4 stars !!! Used osaka as my port of entry and exit - hotel won’t store bag however while you travel even though it says baggage faculties on the site
