        One of the Best Motel in Tennoji”

        Neat envioronment, friendly staff, high accessibility to other attractions

        Everything is fine in Boarding House, the staff was really friendly and possesses good English skills, the Japanese-style rooms were neat and tidy, and the air-conditioners really did their job well(some motel just put a shaking machine up and they call it the air-con). The shared-bathrooms were good too, literally spacious. The Television was a really wide and HD one, the last day of our trip in Osaka was raining and we all sit in the common room and enjoy programs about Japanese Geisha. Besides, the subway was just around the corner, very convenient to those having a tightly-scheduled trip in Osaka. The price was good for budget travelers, you can hardly find any motel cheaper than this. Once again the staff there was really friendly and polite, if you go to Osaka, please, take my sincere advice, try the Boarding House!

        It was within walking distance from Tennoji station, and it's not hard to find the hotel. Loved the room - it's spacious and comfortable. For a single person, there's even a mini dining table and sofa. Definitely will choose Boarding House again when I come back to Osaka.

        Friendly Staff, Early Check In, Cleanliness

        We were there on mid of August for one night stay and our flight touched down in early morning. Thus, we went on and check out the place and possibly drop our baggage there. We did not expect they will allow us for early check in and we were pleasantly surprised that they did allow us for early check in as early as 7am! It happened again a week later after our trip back from Sapporo and Tokyo, we reached at 6:30am and again, the room was ready for us to check in. The staff speaks limited English but definitely very friendly, kind and helpful. Location is good ONLY if you know how to find. It took us half an hour to locate the exact location. Here's a good hint: head to Tennoji Station North Gate, walk until you see a Hotel with Thai restaurant (few streets down the road) and turn into the small alley. You will be able to see Boarding House on your left shortly.

        good location, close to JR Tennoji and convenient shop at JR station. about 15 minutes from Tennoji to JR Osaka to access to outside such as Kyoto.

        It was a good time to stay here and I decide to visit Osaka again on Nov15, and Boarding House is still the hotel that we have booked. Room is quite big and clean. Private toilet in a room and share bathroom but it was convenient. However you have to bring your own soap, champoo and towel. Elevator is provided, TV is furnished at living room, kitchen equipments are provided. Coint Washing machine and dryer also provided, and you can hang your washed clothes in the room and they could dry totally. Japanese bedding will comfort you after l9ng traveling day, and Tatami mat makes you feel real more Japanese style while you are stepping on the floor. To conclude, Boarding House is a nice and economic hostel where the first place I will be looking for when I have a plan visiting Osaka. Highly recommend!!

        Good location, very convience walking from Tennoji Station. Good price. The room area is large enough for packing luggage. Room without bathroom, but it is very useful with washing-basin & toilet. Therefore it's my second time for staying at Boarding House.

        Perfect location, large room, reasonable price

        I will recommend Boarding House. It's location is so good, as it is very near the JR and subway station. There are convenient store and many restaurants nearby. The room is clean and large. The staff are helpful. And the price is very reasonable. As for the shower room, although it is shared, I do not think it is a problem because you can lock the main door. I will definitely stay here again if I come to Osaka again.

        convenient location; large space; low cost

        Boarding house is located just a few minutes to Tennoji JR or subway station with convenient transport! The rooms are spacious with simple but neat and tidy settings! Although bathrooms are shared, they are clean and good. Consider all factors, it is a very good place for staying in Osaka, especially for economic travellers!

        Hostel Feel”

        It was a great place to stay in for the price we paid. Location wise, it was 5 minutes walk to tennoji station (JR Loop). It was slightly further to get to the subway but still manageable by foot. Unlike typical guest houses, there is a lift in this which is convenient for tourists with heavy luggages. Would like to emphasis that there is a basin and toilet bowl/ W.C in your private room. However, the shower is located between Level 1 and 2. There is shower room, which can be locked with 2 cubicles in there. Thus, it is good for couples or families with kids.

        I had a comfy stay at Boarding house. Close walking distance to Tennoji station yet tucked in a quiet area. Close to seven eleven and many cheap restaurants. I would stay here again if I come back to Osaka.

        Convenient and inexpensive accomodation”

        Convenient location, friendly staff, spacious room

        Boarding House is conveniently located near Tennoji Station, one of Osaka's most important railway stations. The hotel's category is somewhere between business hotel and guest-house. The rooms are more spacious than the average for this kind of accomodation. There are is a common room equipped with TV and PC (of course, wifi is available in the guestrooms), as well as a common kitchen. The two shower rooms are located at an intermediate level up from the first floor (washbowl and toilet were inside my room). The English speaking staff was very friendly and didn't object to my coming before the regular check-in time.

        Location, comfort and value for money

        Great stay. Nice staff. Clean and comfort Japanese style room. Walking distance to the subway and JR station. Near a few shopping malls. Many food options around. Direct train to airport. You have your own toilet but without shower. I will stay at the boarding house again if come back to osaka.

        Great location”

        location, nice staff, comfortable.

        We were a group of 8 people and booked the twin rooms. We stayed in this hotel for 2 days and it was great. The room was spacious and equipped with futon, toilet, sink, air conditioner, and a table, but that was enough for this price. The price is reasonable. The shared bathrooms on the 2nd floor were clean with soap and shampoo, so you need to bring the towel by yourself or rent from the hotel. There were 3 bathrooms, 2 were together so you can use it with your partners at the same time. The bathroom doors can be locked, so it was quite safe. It is very convenient for the elderly because there was toilet in the room. In the room, the air conditioner worked quite well, but it kept turning off automatically. In order to prevent that, you should turn the temperature to 20 degree so that the room stays cool. The hotel is only 5 min walk from Tennoji station. At first, it might be hard to get here, but once you get used to the direction, it is very easy. It is located right behind the station. There were convenient stores, restaurants and shopping malls near the hotel. The staff were nice and helpful. He waited for us after midnight for our check-in on the first day. We can deposit the luggage in the hotel.

        Just the best low-price place to stay in Osaka”

        I was among their last customer in 2016 and I loved it. I stayed for 3 nights right and left on Dec 31. Single bed - Non smoking room • Room: the size was perfectly comfortable for 1 person; clean, fully equipped; heater was working well. Nothing was really there to be complained about. •Location: Just about 3-min walk away from Tennoji station. You can literally go everywhere in Osaka from this station without feeling far. It's kinda in the center of the city. • Staff: It's more like a self service place, so actually you won't see the staff that much. But whenever you see them, they are as nice as they can be. • Facility: Everything is available for free or with low expense and very cool. You will have to take shower in a different area outside your room, but there is always available space and hot water. In short, it is worth the money and deservingly the perfect place for young independent travelers 🖒

        Budget friendly, Cleanliness, Strategic location

        Boarding House is located at around 5 minutes walking distance from Tennoji Station North Gate Exit. From the exit, turn to your right and walk straight (passing by drug store, restaurants, convenient store) until you see a Bali-style Hotel. And then, turn to the right alley and you'll see the Boarding House signboard. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We booked Japanese style-room and we love the sense of tradition and laid-back atmosphere here. We were happy with the cleanliness of shared toilet and shower rooms. P.S. : There is one restaurant selling Okonimyaki nearby which was good. Even the Bali-style hotel nearby has a Honey Toast Cafe inside which was nice to try for their varieties of honey toast too.

        Satisfy Except Check in time”

        Clean water without clorine, good shower heater and good quality soap and shampoo,,very comfortable blanket and pillow

        Overall we are satisfy with the price paid. Good location, we can access to JR West Station and other sub-way at Tennoji Station itself. Direct transport till Kansai Airport. So many family marts nearby and so many food and groceries to eat and shop from low cost to luxuries. The door no is the same with the second door which is exporting door business. We were pressing the second house bell but the persons keep on replied"No..No..No.." until she switch off the bell and we stayed outside under rain that night until 7 am then we realize the boarding house located at the 3rd house without stated house number. So to remind the next new comer about this especially at the late raining night,you might miss the house even tough you are already next to it.

        close to subway and convenient store. the room was ok

        It could be hard to find the hotel if u are new to this area.but actually it's easy. If u ride subway, find exit 7 then find north exit then go left until u see bali tower hotel. There is an alley beside the bali tower hotel, just walk in the alley and you will find the boarding house in the left soon. If u ride shinkansen or jr lines, it's the same, find the north exit and walke to the left till bali tower. If u ride willer express bus to tennoji, look arond till u see the MIO (mall), it's on the top of the subway and jr lines i mention above.
