Newly open・Cozy apt 6-B
Great quiet location near Aquarium (5-min walk, must visit!), Tempozan Market Place, Ferris Wheel, and Universal Studios (10-min walk + free 3-min Tempozan Ferry + 25-min walk or pay 1700 yen roundtrip to take the Captain Line shuttle boat from Aquarium to USJ). Suite spotless, bed super comfy, 3 drawers underneath bed, coat rack. All TV channels in Japanese. Cutlery and dishes enough for 2 settings only eg. 2 forks, 2 cups, 2 large plates, etc. Lots of bath and hand towels. Bath robes and complimentary toiletries for 2. Small waste baskets, but large garbage bins located outside per floor. Wished there was an instruction sheet for the washing machine & oven/element plate with English labels for what the Japanese labels meant. We didn't use either appliance. However, there was a drying rack that we could put outside on the balcony to dry our handwashed clothes. Hosts answered questions promptly. Would go back to stay again! Thanks Kiku & Matsu!

2 min. from Nakatsu Station, 5-person apartment
We had a fantastic stay in this apartment - perfect for our family of 4. Some of the local restaurants were outstanding and authentic compared to restaurants in the city. Highly recommended.

202 Dotonbori River, 5 min walk to Dotonbori, Kuromon Market, Shinsaibashi, Namba Business District, Balcony with washing machine. 1F free dryer, microwave
Everything as described but it was really loud (cars,motorcycles,loud people) in the night but we cannot really blame Baoxu

2 rooms, 8 minutes to Dotonbori, 5 minutes to JR Namba, Shinsaibashi, Netflix, Horie
A cozy and comfortable place to stay, not too far from the lively area for hiking to Dowton and more, it is worth recommending.

302 Dotonbori River, 5 min walk to Dotonbori, Kuromon Market, Shinsaibashi, Namba business district, washing machine on balcony. 1F free dryer, microwave

401 Dotonbori River, 5 min walk to Dotonbori, Kuromon Market, Shinsaibashi, Namba business district, washing machine on balcony. 1F free dryer, microwave
Really quite cheap for such a wonderful experience. It is very close to Dotombori and very clean and comfortable room. Everything was perfect. Absolutely recommended.

101 Dotonbori Riverside, 5 min walk to Dotonbori, Kuromon Market, Shinsaibashi, Namba Business District, Balcony with washing machine. 1F free dryer, microwave
Great host with friendly and timely responses. Listing was accurate on describing the living space. Good location with plenty of eateries and subway stations within walking distance. Only downside would be that the space is a little crammed with low ceiling but that's also probably due to me being a tall guy of 190cm in height and Japanese houses typically tend to be lower in height. Otherwise, everything was perfect from furnitures, linen to toiletries and additional amenities. Enjoyed my stay very well and would go back.

Yoshino Nagaya, a Nagaya-style inn at the foot of Mt. Yoshino, a World Heritage Site, close to the river, station, and convenience store, pets welcome!
Traveling to Mt. Yoshino, it's a great place to stay. The host is very considerate and warm. I'll come back

Kyoto Center near Kujo|Parking area|3 Rooms |9pax
We really enjoyed our stay. The neighborhood was quiet and easy to walk to bus/train stations.

[Midorikawatei Casa Verde] 15-minute walk to Kyoto Station/11-minute walk to Kuju Station/1 minute to Kamogawa/High-speed WIFI
Nice tiny house for our Kyoto stay. Super clean and near to the river 👍🏻

Riverside/ 2mins to Inari Shrine/ 5mins Kyoto Sta.
Can't beat the location if you want to visit Mt. Inari before or after the crowds. Since the grounds are open 24 hours, you can walk over anytime, day or night. And although the shops and shrine facilities are only staffed from about 9am to 6pm, you are free to walk the torii gates anytime, and it's absolutely surreal after dark. Also right next to a nice bridge over a picturesque river, and very close to a 7-11. Inside, the place is very nice, and certainly would stay there again.

8 minutes by train to USJ, 5 bedrooms, please have a good time at this private lodging

Naoko's hospitality inn/Very best Convenience
Naoko is the best host I’ve ever experienced — she is warm-hearted, kind, talkative, knowledgeable, easygoing and very sweet. She gave us clear instructions for us to get on the right train, help us when we got lost, gave us greats tips for travelling in Kobe, provided us a traditional Japanese tea ceremony with sweets. Naoko made you feel that she truly cared about you. She is one of the reasons why I fell in love with Kobe. She helped me understand Kobe and the way Kobe is. When I come back to Japan in the future, I will definitely come back to Kobe. And when I come back to Kobe, I will definitely choose Naoko’s place again. Her place is super convenient, very close to the station, supermarkets, parks and everything. The place is clean and have everything you’ll need. I slept well and tight at her place. I highly recommend Naoko’s place. Thank you so much for having me and my family! We had a great experience and memories to remember.

Japanese room, Osaka/Umeda 2 sta, with balcony
Shared apartment with private rooms and a quiet environment, well connected to the Osaka metropolitan area. Courteous, communicative and very friendly hostess. I can recommend sitting on the embankment right next to the river. There you have a wonderful view of the Osaka skyline and the railroad tracks without there being much going on. I would book a room again.
