Everything was very simple and easy. Personal kind enough, handed out paper with all information needed for the stay. Very easy check in and checkout. Its possible to drink in the lobby so its nice to meet people.
The place is clean, the bedrooms are spacious, the common rooms are cozy, the showers are high pressure, and the staff were very friendly.
The only complaint is that the house dog situation was, for the time that I was there, a little concerning. They were quite vocal and unfriendly for the most part, apparently because they were in heat. I believe the staff when they say it's not always like that.
But overall I greatly enjoyed Guest House Matsu so much that I kept wanting to spend time there with the great staff and guests.
See you again sometime!
The hostel was clean, well located and the staff were friendly and helpful. We booked the family room. During the day it was fine but in the evening we were woken up several times throughout the night because the door to the room does not seal properly. It’s basically a sliding closet door. Light and noise came in from the bathroom sink area, which is an open area and located next to the room. People were using hair dryers at 2am even though the signs say not to.
The dorm beds seemed to have a proper door and were not in the same area so I think noise won’t be an issue in that area. I would advise not using the family room.
A few minutes walk will take you to the subway, making it easy to get to anywhere.
Cute dogs greeted me and the staff were very kind and cozy.
If you want to interact with locals and other travelers, this hostel is recommended.
10 mins walk from Tengachaya station. close to Family Mart.quiet place and two lovely dogs.no lift.nice lobby you can use kitchen here and free talk to everyone. impressive toilet.free zone has a shelf of books.bathroom is nice with hot water.
I'm so stupid to double booked and the stuff help me to call back my money from hotels.com.I strongly recommend here.I will choose it by any chance if I come back Osaka again.
It was amazing! My second time staying there and it was just as good as I remembered. Super friendly staff, comfortable living room for guests to hang out in, central location close to two subway stops and a big grocery store, multiple bicycles for rent, and only 2 stops away from Dotonbori. very cheap too! I highly recommend this place for anyone staying in Osaka!!
