the b namba-kuromon

Liked the hotel very much - rooms are clean, staff very friendly, breakfast and evening donuts just perfect

B Namba Kuromon was easily accessible by train and close to Kuromon Market/Dotonburi/DenDen Town and Nipponbashi. Also, you don't have to cross the 2 big roads nearby to go "into town" you can use the Namba walk underground and there's loads of shopping and food down there too. The roof terrace is a lovely area with great views across the city. You do have to pay for the washing machines/dryers and there is only one vending machine with no Coca cola and the ice machine is right in reception so no chance of wearing your jammies to get some. At reception, the lady didn't charge enough tax so we had to pay the extra amount by card so we would have been charged to make the 2 payments by our bank, then she went over to her colleague and that was it, I asked if everything was OK and could we go? she could have said instead of just walking away I must also say that the downstairs ladies toilet is a tiny single room, you practically have to sit on the loo to close the door..not great. I have to say that location is mainly what this hotel is good for.

Location is perfect; near several subway stations, right in front of the seafood market and walking distance to major shopping areas as well as local food

The facility was nice as well as the friendly agents. Only thing that might be improved is that the paper with explanations of the room, the one with QR code of the webpage was quite worn-out that needs to be replaced.

The hotel is located in Namba and very close to Dotonbori. Several subway stations near by. But I would not stay here again. The staff was not very helpful and the toilets and air conditioning were very dirty. There was black mold in the openings of the air conditioning unit and the toilet seemed clean but if you look between the space of the seat and the back of the toilet there was a lot of dirt and hair accumulated. I didn’t feel comfortable using the AC while knowing that the air coming out of it is harmful. Which was especially annoying since it was very hot during our stay in Osaka. Generally the staff at the reception was not the nicest nor the most helpful.

Good location, new and clean, near kuromon market and subway station
