Nu Island Vacation Packages

I booked this hotel some months ago and I started reading reviews prior to check in. I'll admit I got a bit nervous. That being said we decided to stay the night and try it out. First impressions were that there was more space than many rooms we've stayed in while in Japan. Many features look newish and it has a full kitchen. Then things get weird. The wall paper is peeling off. There's a persistent bad smell. There's roach traps everywhere. I tried to shower and the shower nozzle fell off. My husband tried to leave to do a Lawson run and the latch on the lock fell off. The beds were surprisingly comfortable but it's also loud in the morning with people talking in the alleyway. It was fine for the night but I wouldn't stay here again.

This is a nightclub built in hotel - not for introverted people

The location was ok. The entrance was on a small back street. It's rather difficult to find. There's an underground walk way entrance right by the hotel that connected all tge way to Osaka station, which is great in hot summer days. We stayed at a corner room on a lower floor with 3 beds. The room was larger than similar hotels. Modern, clean, functional. Each floor has a locked door by the elevator to access the floor with card key. The breakfast buffet was excellent. The dining room was large, clean. The staff were friendly. We loved the public bath. It's not onsen, spring water, but it was clean and modern. You check in with a staff with your room key to use the bath. The only negative point was it was too noisy outside as we stayed on a lower floor. Overall, excellent.

The property is easy to find, it is 10mins walk from Kyoto station. The property is clean, the rooms are spacious. They have detailed room/property instructions. I would definitely recommend/come back here.
