게스트 하우스 리즈 나카자키-초

A lovely apartment, conveniently located for subway use and bars and restaurants. We walked to it from Umeda station, after getting the Shinkansen to Shin-Osaka from Khoto, which is close to the city centre, past some nice shopping and eating areas. We stayed here for for the reason of travelling to Universal Studios. Temma subway station is about 12 minutes walk (with a 9 & 7 year old). However, on the return journey at night time, we had to walk past the lady bars and casinos with some choice clientèle and services around. (Bear this in mind if with young children, mine didn't notice!) Also close by is an outdoor playpark, next to Kids Plaza which my children loved! Discounted tickets from 14:00 onwards: it closes at 17:00 and this is more than enough time. It is also close to Osaka imperial castle.

Generally a good experience! We got the feeling of a genuine japanese apartment. For a longer stay I might have been put off by the fact that there is no real food/dinner place to sit and eat. There is a low living room table with couches on both sides in the middle of the living room which is also in the middle of the apartment- you often need to pass this area. But it is ok for family breakfast. The overall cleaning of floor, bedroom, kitchen, toilette and shower was good, but someone might need to spend some time dusting off the decorations and details. The big closets in the bedroom was really good to hide bags, but I don't know why there was a super dusty floor lamp tucked away there? The AC was working fine and there is a extra floor fan to use (July =hot weather). Another thought; you should have some kind of explanation/instructions on the hot water system. We had already spent 2 weeks in Japan so I knew how it worked, but if I would have come straight from Europe it would be much harder - especially since every thing is in Japanese. The subway track outside the house is not optimal but it works to sleep with earplugs. Also remember to shut the window in the bathroom before evening, otherwise the restaurant cooking fumes will come in. A bonus is that a gentle soul left an converter from japanese electrical socket to eu socket with extensioncord and 3 european outlets. Yay! Generally I recommend this guest house to those willing to live closer to the local standard!

部屋、キッチン共に十分な広さがあり良かったです。滞在した日がかなり寒い日で、仕切りのないスタジオタイプの部屋ではひとつの暖房だけでは部屋内が寒かったのですが、押入れにあった電気ヒーター使って凌げました。

Way too noisy, the apartment is on the 4th floor and sandwiched between 2 railway tracks at window level. If you plan on sleeping stay elsewhere, we were booked in for 4 nights and moved out after the first night. Terrible. We then booked into a normal chain hotel (which was cheaper) less than a mile away and 100% better.

JR 和地鐵都近, 兩樣都搭到, 去各景點方便, 接天神神橋筋商店街, 窗台有洗衣機及曬衫位置充足. 到訪電郵提供到訪資料非常詳盡. 地下大門沒有密碼比較危險, 只有房門一個密碼鎖, 如能地下也有密碼鎖會比較放心. 電梯超細, 2位成人加2個24吋行李箱已不能再入, 人多的話要分幾次上樓. 微波爐基本翻熱功能特差, 3次叮食物才少許暖, Watts 太低. 淋浴室太細, 若成人高大的話會比較辛苦. 陽台可以看到地鐵行駛少許嘈音, 若不介意少許嘈音或喜歡看地鐵的話便不成問題了.
