Hostel Caranashi's owner is wonderful, he has filled the place with all the things that he enjoys. He is extremely friendly and is wonderful to chat with. I loved coming back at night and enjoying a good conversation over a nice couple of drinks. The place itself is wonderful, especially the main room with the wide windows. The owner will show you local places that he really likes as well and it is wonderful to be able to go to those places rather than non-tourist spots. You really get to see a person in all the places he shared. He is extremely friendly and will really want to make you feel welcome and has put a lot of his heart and soul into this place.

The hostel is very easy to find and it’s right next to a convenience store. The nearest metro station is about 6-minute walk. The neighborhood is also full of nice restaurants, so it’s very convenient if you are a bit tired of going to downtown area. The check-in process was easy and the staff was very helpful. We landed at 7 am and obviously we were very tired. After going around the town for a few hours, we came back and asked if it’s ok to check-in before 4 pm, because we were very tired. The staff kindly let us checked in a little after 3 pm. The room is very clean. The bed is comfortable for two people. The bathroom is small, but exceptionally clean. The water pressure is also great.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    It was my second time staying here. Great location, friendly staff and very cheap. Previously I stayed in a superior capsule and I was surprised at how much space you have. This time I stayed in a standard capsule in the female dormitory and the bed area is quite spacious. The facilities are also very clean. I would definitely give this a go if you're going to Osaka for a short stay.

    Best hostel in Osaka for meeting new people, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The receptionist was willing to go the extra mile, he even shared his dinner with us. Late checkout was possible with no extra charge, the receptionist was willing to wait for me for a late check in, nice terrace and benches outside reception as well as kitchen and common parts. Beds were clean and comfortable had a good sleep, dorm was quiet at night, good AC. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone looking for good value for money

    Extremely cheap backpacker style accommodation especially considering that it is private rooms rather then bunk beds. Futons are surprisingly comfortable. Common room seemed to be quite busy most nights if you are the social type. Pretty good location, 15 minutes or so from Namba Station. Easy enough location to get around. "Poorer" area so provides an interesting and different look into Japanese life, always felt safe though. Several convince stores nearby to buy water and a breakfast bento on your way out sightseeing.
