This was the perfect place for us to start our Japan trip! Staff had great knowledge of the local area that they were more than willing to share. Design of the building was beautiful and the common room was a really nice space to chill. Good bar and super yummy breakfast. The only thing that would have made it 100% is wi-fi in the bedrooms. You can hire bikes from them as well, it's a great way to take in Osaka!

The hostel is very clean and has some really comfortable showers. It is located near two stations, from where the connections are excellent. Very near to the hostel is an izaka-ya, Guillotimes (or ask for Audrey's bar; nr. 15 on the map you get from the hostel). The energetic owner makes it a very nice place to relax,to eat delicious food,to meet and talk to people or to party. The beds are really comfortable. The price is a bit higher than other hostels, but all in all this is totally worth it.

While the hostel has a great aesthetic , it was not worth the money when you consider its overall quality. The doors to the rooms were cumbersome to lock/open and insecure. Our neighbors had a difficult time opening and closing theirs, resulting in a lot of banging noises early the next morning. The walls are literally paper thin and felt like your neighbors were in your room. If you're just going to party in Osaka all nightm, this is not worth the money to crash in. Won't be back.

Thank you for your stay with us the other days. It is regrettable that you could not feel comfortable here. HOSTEL 64 Osaka is a small hostel which has been renovated from an old building built in 1964.We have not every items and facilities are new and also due to Japanese traditional fittings such as paper doors, rooms are not perfectly sound-proof.But we are always eager to help the guests and trying every effort to deal with the problems if there is any. We are happy to have the comments from our guests to make our service better and improve the management here. Thank you for your advise again.

The hostel was great with it's communal lounge & bar areas. Breakfast was good value for money but perhaps not a very big serving so I need to add an egg to make it more of a meal. The only downfall was the bathroom sink/mirror being in a communal area outside all of our bedrooms when a Chinese guest decided it was ok to blow dry her hair at midnight. I spoke with reception the next day but they didn't seem to care to much. Perhaps at check in people need to be reminded of noise levels

Easily one of the best hostels I have ever stayed at. The staff were super nice. They were very helpful in giving information about the local area and it was a very unforgettable experience. And also the place was conveniently located from the subway station. If you decide to visit Osaka, I highly recommend staying at hostel 64 Osaka!

Great little hostel. Close to Osaka Subway and the staff were more than helpful to those of us with very limited Japanese. Recommend if you are a single or pair travelling through Osaka.

Awesome vibe from this hostel! Really cool and out there. Reminds me out of something from Newtown in Sydney, but spotless and clean!

Very chic hostel designed with art and form. Everybody gets a full sized bed for themselves which is awesome. There is no common kitchen but breakfast was available for 300 Yen +200 for coffee or tea with refills. Get the breakfast with the coffee. The homemade bread and jam were amazing. Coffee was excellent too. A rather small hostel this was definitely put together by artists who have an understanding of interior design and what is cool. Will definitely stay here again. :)

It was very overpriced for what it was. Everything was great except for the price.

Very stylish hostel though it was a bit cold to sleep in the dorm. Also the wifi only works at the lobby but that's not a big problem. Would recommend this hostel!

Lots of style, very comfortable. Didn't have any problems, but would have felt better with a real locker in the 2 person private - ar at least a stronger door. Overall a wonderful stay - thank you!
