Contrary to most people saying that this hotel is too far from the city, I thought it was of a decent location. It is conveniently located near the Expo (Intex), several subway stations and is reasonably near (a few subway stations away) the Kaiyukan (Aquarium). The hotel's provision of frequent (and very timely!) shuttle buses also helps to alleviate the distance issue.
Moreover, the location provides a different aspect and view of Osaka. I guess its considered more of the suburbs, making it a quieter place to stay. The nights are peaceful and very enjoyable, unlike the city. Since most of us travellers will end up visiting the city anyway, this hotel would give us a good opportunity to visit the other parts of Osaka.
About the room, it's comfortable, but not fantastic. Free wifi was a bonus, but they did not even provide daily complimentary water. The makeup service everyday provided us with clean linen and towels, but there were also times that the staff left out corners of the room uncleaned too. Breakfast was a good spread as well.
Overall, a good hotel to stay at, if you are not a city-person who only wants the Osaka city at your doorstep.
