大阪番茄青年旅舍 - 大阪

I’m new to hostels, but after staying at Wise Owl in Tokyo... I nearly considered getting a hotel after I checked in. The place is basically an old apartment building I think. It looked like a college kid’s apartment. Bathrooms were slightly dirty and smelly. The room was ok the first night but then smelled SO BAD the next two nights of garlic and sweaty bodies. It was very stuffy in the room. Not enough bathroom or shower rooms. 2 of each for the whole building? You have to hunt for it in a residential area. It may or may not have been safe area. I was a little creeped out walking there at night in the quiet dark and narrow alleyways. WiFi was good, staff was very nice. Next time I would splurge an extra $15 for a more modern hostel.

Had a great stay, staff were really helpful and nice. The Hostel itself was clean and had everything you need and it was also within 5 minutes of the subway.
