A really great family hotel near subway and just 2 blocks away from the popular Shinsaibashisuji Kita Shopping Arcade, a grand shopping street which stretches across a full 15 blocks from Chuo-Odori to Sennichimae-Dori where right at the end of this shopping street is the renowned Glico man in Dotonburi. Therefore, you simply do all your shopping here without having to carry bags full of stuff on a train.
Staff here can speak English very well and very helpful with everything you ever needed their assistance during your stay. The hotel has everything you needed, however, I found some minor in-room equipments that should be mandatory instead of renting them from the staff even though they are all free of charge. For instance, the bath stool and a vacuum cleaner, both should be equipped in the room. For the room itself, pretty spacious with great layout. I love the sliding door that separates bedroom from other areas of the room when closed. But the door is not sound proof nor walls, floor, and the ceiling so you can hear every foot steps from the upper room and since this is a family hotel so a lot of running noises from the upper floor every late night and early morning.
Your room is cleaned, minor, everyday with big cleaning every 3rd day of your stay which is good. The garbage is much less confusing than other family hotels I've stayed, only Can-Glass-Plastic bottles and other trashes. Laundry service is at 1ft floor even a smoking room is available.
