Experience of the stay
The room was super spacious, more comfortable than any business hotel I had ever stayed in.
The humidifier helped a lot; otherwise, I always get allergies from the dryness when going to Japan. The night we checked in, there were activities with free takoyaki and beer.
I felt genuinely welcomed into the customs.
Experiences during the trip
On the third day, I woke up and since the itinerary from the previous day wasn't great, we took the Nankai Line from Shin-Imamiya to Namba to play games at Gigo for two hours. I was surprised at the game center in Japan for the first time; everything was so much fun. By noon, we went to Kuromon Market to focus on souvenirs and the cheapest drug stores. After that, we returned to the hotel to drop off our spoils and were encouraged by the hotel staff, who said we must have had a lot of fun.
In the evening, we went to Umeda to enjoy the famous giant eel rice bowl. Thankfully, we made a reservation in advance to taste it. This was the second time, and the atmosphere was really comparable to most izakayas. I was very satisfied. After finishing, we went to Nagai Station to enjoy the entrance event of the Nagai Botanical Garden. Walking hand in hand with my partner in the dim light was really happy, and although our legs were sore and tired, we felt very fulfilled throughout.
