APA Hotel & Resort Osaka Namba Ekimae Tower
I deducted 1 star due to the very small size of the rooms. The basic requirement would be a Deluxe room in future. Note: There are no drawers or wardrobes in Standard or Deluxe rooms. However this is my second stay at this hotel as the onsens and associated facilities are amazing, as with it's location ...
