Small hotel with essentials despite price”
unexpected amenities provided, 3 mins walk to metro, located on quiet street
Despite paying a relatively low price for the hotel, I am pretty satisfied with the hotel. First, it has all the essential amenities like hair dryer, rope, shampoo, razors, small bathtub, LCD TV, window. It is also very near to the metro which is 3 stations away from the town. The hotel staffs were friendly and has no difficulty communicating English with them.

small room but close to the subway, family mart”
closed to subway, family mart, quiet area
I've booked this hotel in the last minute, this hotel seem to be the cheapest one on my list that time. I've book a single room with breakfast. The room is very small, the bath room is SUPER small (my head almost touch the ceiling!), the breakfast is terrible! and sometimes the smell from the bath room come out.
I never try the hotel wifi coz I've brought my own Wimax router. So I cannot give you my comment in this part, however, hotel do provide the free wifi service.
You need to walk around 5 mins to the MRT station & Family mart.

Room facilities quite convenience
Hotel loaction near by consulate so that felt quiet and you may feel security. Hotel area have supermarket; restaurant and convenien store that's okay for me.
For night market, it is not near by Dotonbori/Nanba but hotel is conjuntion Awaza subway and other(forget)subway you have to take subway to go there.
To Kansai Airport, I took taxi To Nanba station almost 1300yean change Nankai Main Line.
Overall, I like this hotel quiet area.

Good location but quality differs”
Big single bed
The hotel was in a good location. For the price it is ok. The decoratings were outdated, the bar fridge was barely cold enough for my two water bottles. The male staff were that friendly even though there was a language barrier I thought even a smile would be enough to give a warmer feeling in the lobby. The female front desk staff gave smiles which is very important I think.

Come with breakfast
hotel sunlife is located slightly away from the busy town hence you can get quiet sleep at night. we like about the choice of western or japanese breakfast. western breakfast is light for us but japanese breakfast is slight too full so we always get the rice for half.
everything else is good, staff are helpful.

The only bad is the hotel is a bit old.

Very sad and derelict hotel”
Location
Cheap hotel, thats why I booked as I had to spend 9 nights in Osaka. However, it was not that cheap considering how old, smelly the hotel is. The bed covers were dirty, carpets ripped, smoky and muffy smeling rooms. The sheets and toilets were clean though. Breakfast (which costs 1,000 yen if you buy it separatly) is one piece of toast and one egg...and theres horrific coffee. The man at the restaurant is rather friendly though.

Hotel is close to Awaza station and it takes about 10 minutes to Namba by MTR. Room size is ok. Price not expensive but can have better choice with the same price. Breakfast is awful. Better not to include it.

Close to MTR station but difficult to find
Hotel close to Awaza station but no hotel sign and hence difficult to find at the first time. Very quite location and no shops of resturants nearby. Price is not high and only can be considered as a second choice when you cannot find a hotel nearby the Namba Station.
Hotel room is old and still acceptable. Breakfast is awful and should try to avoid it.
