The Room was clean and centrally located. The bed could definitely use some improvement woke up in the middle of the night with a sore back. It has a washer but no dryer and it was raining so we couldn’t wash our clothes.

Our stay at the Nico Hotel was okay, the room is spacious for the money and it’s nice having the kitchen facilities. However the bathroom smelt strange like stagnant water and no matter how much we sprayed the room spray it didn’t leave. Also, the staff were not the most pleasant when asking for more towels as the rooms aren’t cleaned and towels aren’t replaced everyday they retrieved them from behind the bar and dropped one on the floor and picked it straight up thinking we wouldn’t notice. It’s okay for budget stay but if your looking a bit more luxury don’t recommend.

All in all, a comfortable stay with good location. Stayed 4 nights. With this being a hotel facility, would have at least expected bins to be emptied and towels to be changed.

Property was well located, although a bit small for 4 adults. The only negative is the property is at the front of a main road, so I recommend earplugs if you're a light sleeper, like I am.

The apartment had all essentials and rather spacious for a Japanese hotel room. I was shocked when I needed to check under the bed - full of dust, many stuff left by the previous guests including socks and used slippers (6-7 pairs!!). It was clear they only clean where you can see easily.. The staff was friendly. A bit of a walk to any metro stations.

Hotel was very nice, 15 minute walk to Dotonbori which was great for night life. Simple check in if you pre-check, the desk attendant made it a lot simpler too. Only downside to this hotel is the lack of luggage forwarding due to staff being unable accept as they are only there certain hours. Although they informed me of this via email, I replied and asked where the nearest place to send the luggage to is, and was met with no reply and I had to figure it out myself and ship to a nearby Yamato center. Other than that, hotel was very nice, and I would stay again if I traveled lighter.
