Experience of the stay
A few days after the reservation, I received an email in English asking me to install the app and complete the check-in.
I installed the app and filled in the necessary information to complete the process.
I thought it might be a contactless accommodation typical of these times, but
during the day, there was staff at the front desk to assist as needed.
On the day of check-in, the app sent me the building entry code, room number, and passcode.
The check-out could also be done with just one tap.
The location was a short walk from Shinsaibashi, with many Korean restaurants and stores in the vicinity.
The nearest stations are probably Nagahoribashi and Nihonbashi.
The first floor has a waiting area with sofas and a microwave.
Instant coffee and lounge wear are available for self-service.
Since I stayed for four nights, I set one day for cleaning, and other than that,
it's better to request towels from the front desk as they won't provide them otherwise.
The room key is accessed via an electronic passcode.
My first impression upon entering was that it resembled a new hotel in Southeast Asia.
Overall, it was clean because it was new.
I couldn't find any plug sockets around the table, but I moved the table a bit to use an outlet behind it for PC work.
Having tumblers instead of regular cups was a nice surprise.
It was unfortunate that the toilet did not have a bidet.
The hot and cold water taps were red and blue, but the water wasn't scalding, so
I didn't have much trouble adjusting the temperature.
The WiFi was comfortable.
Experiences during the trip
Nearby, you can find Super Tamade and the city library.
Super Tamade is a discount supermarket in Osaka.
They have improved their convenience by allowing QR payments and credit cards.
The Osaka City Library is available for registration even for non-residents, so
if you visit Osaka often, it might be a good idea to register.
You can reserve online and borrow/return at the nearest library to your accommodation.
I attended a financial results briefing for Kamakura Investment Trust this time.
Though it was at the Kyoto International Conference Center, it was a convenient location for going anywhere.
