Felt like I was locked up and being watched the entire time. Not a hostel per say more like a hotel with multi beds in different rooms. To strict and not enough freedom for people to be free and enjoy.
I only stayed one night but I really did not like my stay. It was definately the worst hostel I have stayed at in Japan, and being a solo traveller I have stayed in hostels in Hiroshima, Kagoshima, Okinawa, and Ishigaki. The place was hard to find at night and with large luggage, staff was not friendly (worst japanese service I have ever experienced), carpets were stained and dirty, room was cold (they insisted on leaving it at 20degC in the winter) and had no wifi (had to go to lobby on a different floor for wifi which was very inconvenient). The other guests were mostly groups and were very loud. It felt like I was staying in a college dorm. For thr price, you can find a better hostel/guesthouse/capsule hotel somewhere else.
This is a very nice and convenient hostel for single traveller in Osaka.

Hotel Shin Osaka, nice place for a short stay
I stayed at Hotel Shin-Osaka for a week during my visit of Osaka and Kyoto. It is located just across the street from the subway station and that made it a great location since that station had places to eat, a few shops and for foreigners who don't speak Japanese and are planning to use their transit system they have an office there in the station to help you out with your transit traveling not only in Osaka but outside Osaka too.
The hotel room was always kept clean when returned from daily tours and the staff were nice, friendly and even helpful when planning day trips.
On the downside there wasn't much to do near the hotel except a couple of places to eat but then you had the train station just across the hotel entrance. On the weekends vendors sell some of their items as in a flea market (between the hotel and the train entrance) and surprising enough there were some interesting things to look at or even buy.
Since I only planned to use the hotel as a place to sleep, this was the perfect spot for me to stay at with a reasonable price and very easy transit train station.
The hostel was very clean and located in a convenient section of Osaka. I stayed in a four-bed room (two bunk beds). The rooms were immaculate and my roommates were very nice. There was a hot breakfast each day for 500 yen. Finally, the wifi was good in the common area; the only drawback was it wasn't accessible in each room.

Extremely close to JR Shin-Osaka
Extremely close to JR Shin-Osaka station. Entrance is just across the road, but don't be fooled by back door entrance. Hotel is not what it seems. Highly recommended hotel for price and location. Use this place to stay and use as a hub for day trips out and about Osaka. Will definitely go back here next time in Japan.

I wouldn't recommend this hotel
I wouldn't recommend this hotel for more then one night. This really is an overnight hotel. Very conveniently located but lacking in some very basic things like a closet. It seems clear that it is a "sleeper hotel" where people stay for the night after arriving into Shin-Osaka late with the intention of leaving via Shin-Osaka the very next day. Which is what we did.

Very nice place and if you take the right exit from JR station the hotel entrance is immediately across the road. You can borrow a laptop with internet access all for 1000 yen per night.

This is a sleeper. It is located
This is a sleeper. It is located right next to Shin-Osaka Station where the bullet train stops. The room (twin) is considerabley larger than other business hotels we used in Japan and the price is one of the lowest. The entrace does not look great but the room is great. It is clean and the staff is helpful.
