They sent me “the check in time is 3pm.” But until 4pm no staff came and the inside was very crazy. No locks, no safes(it had but the safes didn’t work as safes. It was just shelves). And besides, A woman has to stay in man dorm. This place is the worst in Japan. I couldn’t believe it was the hostel in Japan..
The lodge was closed when I showed up (though I had a reservation) so I stood outside for a while until the owner came out of a restaurant next door. There was then some back and forth on whether I would walk 25 mins or be driven to another hotel he owns across Osaka. At the place I finally ended up, the bed was comfortable and relatively spacious for a hostel, but the bathroom was gross (the sink didn’t drain, the toilet and counter were dirty). But it would’ve been nice to know about the closure before arrival.
What a great hostel! The location is perfect, you are within walking distance of the Namba strain station, a plethora of great restaurants, markets, and Dotonbori street -a major tourist attraction. I got to know the staff by name and they went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and even helped me figure out how to work the SIM card I had bought. You get a great value for an affordable price.

The location can't get much better - a short walk away from Nipponbashi and the main Namba nightlife and shopping district. The owner's son was extremely helpful and friendly. The dorms were basic but very clean with comfortable bedding, AC and WiFi. The kitchen had cooking facilities, a television, etc. The shower room was a little run-down but I've seen worse. It was definitely value for money, especially considering the location, and I appreciated the friendliness of the owners. I'd stay there again for sure. Thank you Vitti Lodge!
Awesome lady owner, very nice and helpful. Would love to stay there again whenever I am in town

Overall coziness
Stayed here for four nights.
Five bunk beds in a room. I got some new friends here. That you can count on when you living close to some persons for a time.
Mostly who stays here are under 30 in age. It's a cozy place with all equipment you need to have. Kitchen, shower, toilets... You need nothing more.
And a bed of course.
Owners are a great couple. Good stories are always not far away.
Hostel is quite small and stairs are steep. Took a tumble down the stairs a couple of times and tripped on them on my way up to floor nr 4 where the bedroom were
Never ooened when I arrived till 30 minutes later and raining someone told me that the admin was in a pizza place..Since I arrive until I left there was no internet. The room smell alot of smoke. The person from the room of the side smoked and never the administrartor say nothing. Aldo grtting there is difficult because google maps at first shows a different location.
