I had a great time staying here! Nicely decorated room and everything is very neat and clean. Michael and Hiroko were very nice and helpful. They gave me useful suggestions on my plan for the day and it was great to kick start my day with Hiroko's yummy homemade breakfast! I loved riding the bike along the river - the view was really beautiful and exactly like what you would see in anime :) Highly recommend this place to people who want to visit both Kyoto and Osaka. Next time when i come back i'll totally stay here again and i'll ride to Osaka!! :))

お部屋は綺麗に清掃され快適、ホスト様ご夫妻は気さくで親切。 さらに朝食はボリューム満点で美味と三拍子揃い、素晴らしい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。

第一次用airbnb就遇到这么好的房东夫妇, 房主会说N个国家的语言, 所以不用怕语言上有障碍,房间超级干净整洁,比住酒店好多了, 性价比高,又不用害怕孤单, 家里的气氛很好,下次来还会住这里。 再做个概括的总结吧,一个字:完美…

Enjoying the days here!!! quiet place, clean house, yum breakfast and nice hosts~(cute cats too >///). I really had good time in last few days. Thanks to you!! By the way, the paintings hanged on the wall are amazing. These inspire me a lot ..also the beautiful scenery. Well, I were so surprised that you stayed in NZ too. haha, had fun talk at last night. Finally, thanks you two again!!! If one day, you come to TW, plz let me know!! : )

在日本可以住在周先生家可真是觉得非常幸福的事情: 幸福点1:他可以和我们讲中文 幸福点2:他每天早上都准备了超级美味和丰富的早餐 幸福点3:在他家里可以欣赏好多好多他自己画的画; 幸福点4:每天早上在阳台看到河畔旁边晨运的人,牵着

房东很细心,会提供一个地图直达地铁站。会提供单车免费使用,五分钟就可以到电车站,单车存放在旁边的自行车场地,有人看管。附近有个很大的超市Oasis,吃的各种东西都有。周边环境很适合徒步去感受小街小巷。是个位置方便,可以远离城市喧嚣的好去处。

谢谢周先生周太太的招待、让我们在异国他乡有种回家的感觉。

Really great private room with a wonderful view and breakfast. They really know the area well and were so generous with their time. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay at a quiet place between Kyoto and Osaka.

Eric and Uru are great host. They're helpful, friendly and responded to our mail fast. We got there late and they're greeted us. When we check out, they also helped us arrange taxi and even drove a car to Shin-Osaka station because our 2 luggages couldn't fit in the taxi. The house itself is lovely and looks exactly like it does in the photos. It's cozy, clean and it's in a quite neighborhood. Well full equipped kitchen, amenities and all working well. The breakfast food and snacks they provided was a lovely addition. The supermarket and 7-eleven shop is near the house, easily to get some food to eat. The house wifi was very fast and the portable wifi was a good use when going outside. Access to the house is good. Our 7 days staying there, we walked to Higashimikuni subway station or Higashiyodogawa JR station within 15 mins. and we took taxi from station back to the house cost with started rate of taxi. All in all, we enjoyed our time in this house. Definitely recommend to stay here.

Eric & Uru are excellent host; they were very helpful and quite pleasant. They have a lovely home in a traditional Japanese neighborhood, with local stores not too far away If you are adventurist and don't mind the short distance from the train or from the hustle and bustle from being downtown, this home will be the place to stay. We thank Eric & Uru for their hospitality Phil and Kari

My friends and I (5 in total) stayed in Eric & Uru's house for 7 days, it's definitely a perfect stay in Kansai: 1) location: 10-15 mints by walk from the house to Shin Osaka station. It's all stunning cherry blossom alone the way. We could not be happier started a day by this! 3 mints by JR line from Shin Osaka to Osaka station, 10-15 mints to other key sightseeing spots in Osaka city; wanna go to other cites like Kyoto in Kansai? Just 30-60 mints! 2) community: the house locates in a very quiet residential area with very local Japanese neighbors - polite and friendly. Is it just the spirit of Airbnb? - Make u homey and live like a local? 3) host: Eric & Uru are one of the best host I have ever met in my trips! They responded every emails and msg fast. They prepared bread, drinks, fruit and snacks in the first day! They helped us booked taxi and restaurants though we changed our schedule couple times. You can have most of the things u need in the house - clean towels, slippers, umbrellas, clothes hangers, hairdryer, extremely comfortable beds, and a PIANO @3rd floor!!! (Yes, this is a 3-floor special house!) This house is totally beyond our expectation (it's even better than the pics) and we all love to recommend it to everyone who will travel to Kansai!

This being our first airbnb experience, we did not expect much. But, once we met Eric and Uru, we knew we couldn't have asked for anything better. They were just perfect host. They had all the house rules and Uru went through them for us. This elegant Japanese house in a lovely neighbourhood was amazingly perfect for us . The house was very clean and contained. The station was just a few minutes by walk. We wish we could have spent more time in this beautiful place. Already want to get back to this place !!

Uru met us at their home and welcomed our group of six people. She was very helpful and called taxis for us everyday that we needed. The home was very comfortable and and spacious for our group. The beds were comfortable and the home had a heater that really helped us during the cold weather. The train station is nearby if you want to walk about 10minutes. We caught taxis to and from Shin Osaka station because of the really cold weather, however, if the weather was warmer, we would've enjoyed the nice walk to the station. There is also a nearby 7eleven and a restaurant. I would highly recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a place to stay and is traveling with a group and wants to be in a house instead of a hotel.

The house was great, exactly as per photos and description. It was very large and comfortable. We are a family with 2 adults and 2 kids and the place suited us very nicely. Eric was very responsive. He met us at the house and answered any questions we had very quickly. As others have written, the house is in a suburban neighbourhood, a fair way from the train station. It's not near any of the sightseeing districts, but we didn't find this to be an issue. We generally walked to the train station in the morning (about 15 minutes) and caught a taxi back from the station in the evening (about 700-800 yen), which worked well for us with kids. There are also steep stairs to the second and third floors, which might be an issue for some people. We definitely recommend Eric and Uru as hosts.

Eric and Uru were wonderful hosts who provided one of my best hospitality experiences on Airbnb. The house was spacious and clean and fully equipped with all electric appliances we needed. It's not too close to any train station but the walking distance was acceptable and the walk in the morning was quite decent with breeze! Special thanks to Eric and Uru for the fresh fruits and the ride! Really appreciate for all! Highly recommended!

Eric rescued us from a taxi driver with whom we couldn't communicate (incidentally, taxi driver didn't speak Japanese well, we could only speak English & very basic Japanese). He came running to get us at the local 7-Eleven. Exciting start of our stay! We appreciate his clear and detailed introduction to his place, well documented house manual with instructions for various appliances, maps, recommendations for restaurants and sight seeing. And his follow up contact to ensure we were settled in well & Christmas greeting was a nice touch. We love the high quality bedding; we slept well each night. Neighbourhood is residential, local and quiet as described. We enjoyed walking thru the neighbourhood. Train station was an easy walk. Mobile wifi was very helpful as well. We will certainly recommend Eric & Uru's place.

I have the freedom to travel alone. Ono is very kindly man. Ono explain to me the Japanese travel information. The information has been very helpful to me. There is comfort in feeling like my home. I recommend this place for young travelers!

I enjoyed my stay at Masaki's very much. He was super nice. On my first day, he came to pick me up at the train station. We got along well from the start and even went to Kyoto together where we had a pleasant time together with another friend of mine and their friend. As other reviewers already mentioned, it is a fine place when you travel on a budget. Small, but cozy, felt like home. I definitely recommend staying at Masaki's apartment!

Masaki's home is a small but cozy apartment and looked exactly the same as the photos. It is very close to the nearest JR station and it's easy to go to Osaka and Kyoto from there. Masaki himself was a very hospitable host and was eager to communicate with people despite the language barrier. We even went to a ramen restaurant together during my stay. I enjoyed my time with him a lot. All in all, Masaki's home is the perfect place for a solo traveler who wants to live in a typical Japanese apartment and keep the traveling costs low.

I could meet Masaki very last time just before I leave his home. He is nice guy who has very funny sense of humor. He is also polite and kind person. Talking with him was lots of fun and it was I really miss:-)

I had a great time at Masaki's place! It is small, but perfect for anyone who just wants a bed for the night. I arrived late with an empty stomach, so after Masaki came to the station to meet me, he and I went for food together. We just hung out and had a good time and then i left in the morning. Masaki became a friend the moment I met him, and the whole experience just felt like crashing at a friends place. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good price, a good friend and just needs a place to sleep.

Masaki's place is an apartment like building, the flat is big enough for 2 people. It is located at a local residential area at daito city, about 30mins from the main city. Masaki is a kind and energetic young guy who even invite his friend to have dinner with me one night at a local ramen restaurant, we have a nice time. Masaki is so busy and hardworking that he only stay with me for one night, as a result i own the whole flat for the rest of my trip. Unfortunately We don't have much chance to chat. One more thing is if you want to experience being a local Japanese, Masaki's place will be a good choice. It is so surprising that when you open the curtains in the morning you can see so many local houses is just in front of you and a JR train passing through the rail between those traditional houses which can be only seen in Japanese cartoon. I will surely choose Masaki's place again when I go to Osaka!

Deeply very familiar, long time, it was me listening to the (URL HIDDEN) was easy to understand even driving directions from the station. Because it is a kindness overflowing personality of the host, it is recommended for those who come to Japan for the first time.

I stayed with Masaki for 1 week. I highly recommend staying at his place when traveling alone. It's in a very safe location and a quick train ride to central Osaka. He is very helpful/friendly and you can come and leave as you please. --We even ended up hanging out a bit too. The bathroom and apt were both clean. Laundry+AC avail. I will definitely stay here again next time I am in Osaka!

Naomichi and his partner were very considerate, kind and helpful. Their home was just as in the photos. Very nice, clean, and Japanese style. We enjoyed our stay very much, as well as hanging out with Naomi. He was very fun and we hope to hang out with him again someday!

Very great host! Picked us up from the train station and dropped us off too. He also taught us a lot about Japanese culture, including formal tea ceremonies. The place is very nice, and is a good way to escape the touristy parts of Japan.

YOKOI is the best host I have ever met. If you want to experience the local life in Japan, tea room will be the best choice. The house is beautiful and it is quite near the Korien station, so you can experience both the peaceful local life and the fantastic city activities. YOKOI's house absolutely will be the only choice next time I go to Osaka. My friend and I really miss him.

Yokoi san is a very warm host. This is a traditional Japanese house with a Japanese garden. There are three cute cats in the house. This house is near the bus stop, Mii. It is convenient to take bus. There is a quiet area without many tourists. And thanks for Yokoi san's tools to help us open the baggage of broken lock! :)

Enjoyed every minute of our stay at Naomichi's place. Wonderful hosts Beautiful house.Enjoyed the tea ceremony.Would definately recommend and would love to stay here again.

Wow! In assoluto tra le migliori esperienze fatte in Giappone. Siamo stati talmente bene con Naomichi e Hatsue che non so da dove cominciare. Quando siamo arrivati ci siamo subito innamorati della loro casa. La stanza è bellissima, in perfetto stile giapponese, affaccia su un piccolo giardino nel quale si trova una caratteristica sala da the. Abbiamo dormito meravigliosamente bene sui futon. Naomichi ed Hatsue sono stati strepitosi: divertenti, energici, autoironici e super disponibili, ci hanno fatto sentire a casa sin dal primo momento. Hatsue ha cucinato per noi un ottimo nabe, il più buono che abbiamo mangiato in Giappone. Ci hanno portato a mangiare sushi, Naomichi ci ha accompagnato a Kyoto ed è stato un giorno intero con noi (portandoci a mangiare un buonissimo ramen!). Abbiamo fatto insieme una cerimonia del the, nella sala da the a casa loro. Hatsue parla poco l'inglese, ma ha sempre usato (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) translate per tradurre dal giapponese all'italiano, creando situazioni esilaranti. Sono stati giorni indimenticabili. Per quanto riguarda la posizione, la casa si trova in un quartiere tranquillo, la stazione più vicina è quella di Korien, ci vogliono 20 minuti a piedi per raggiungerla oppure 10 minuti in bus, la fermata del bus è accanto la porta di casa. Qualche giorno abbiamo preso in prestito le loro 2 bici e abbiamo fatto un giro nei dintorni. Per concludere consiglio a tutti di alloggiare da loro, anche solo per conoscerli! Spero di poter tornare a trovarli presto!

The host was a very gentle, kind, open-minded man. He tried to make me feel at home, helped my rescheduling with useful informations. He has high intellegence with deep knowledge of arts. So I enjoyed conversation with him on various topics. Thanks to him, it was a very comfortable and special staying experience. Naomich-san, thank you so much! I expect the day of staying with you again.

We had a memorable time staying in a Japanes- stye home with quiet neigbourhood. The house is exactly the same as photo and is well decorated. Yokoi-san is a nice host and in fact he drove us twice when he was going out. I would recommended this!

The room was very well equipped and location was extremely convenient. Emi came to pick my dad up personally from the train station and she was very very friendly! Thank you for a great experience!

The apartment is nice location, its convenient and near JR station. And the apartment is clean and comfortable. We got a nice experience in this few days.:)

Clean and big house, we liked it a lot. Emi is very responsive and she offered to pick us up at the train station. Love this place.

Emi's place is near the station and is about 10mins walk or less. There is a convenience store in the neighbourhood and also various eateries. There is also a laundromat downstairs and is very convenient for us to do our laundry. It was very kind of her to come and pick us up at the station and she is quick to reply when we have questions. I like how plastic bags are thoughtfully provided to dispose our waste. Emi's place is big enough and the stay was very comfortable. I would definitely consider her place again if I am coming back to Osaka/Kyoto. (^^)

The apartment is really warm, cozy and looked just the same as the photos that showed on the page. Emi is super nice, she even picked us up from the train station to her apartment. Thank you for your hospitality, Emi :-)

Emi helped us to find her place by coming to meet us and guided us. She was super happy to see and to help us even if it was late evening. The place was comfy and perfect for us. Thanks so much.

房主很好 到达时候还开车去车站接我们 房间整洁 设施齐全 各种贴心的服务 非常好

駅からも近く、商店街もあり、便利な場所でした。コンビニも近くにあります。建物の外見は普通のマンションですが、部屋の中はとても綺麗で、とっても快適でした。また到着時にはEmiさんのご主人に駅から部屋まで送っていただきました。メッセージの返信もすぐにいただきましたた。いろいろありがとうございました! Close enough to JR Ibaraki sta. and shopping street. Convenience store is just a few minutes walk. The room is very clean and comfortable. Emi's husband kindly gave me a ride to the room from Ibaraki sta. when I arrived there. Emi quickly responded when I booked. Everything was good.

駅から近く、部屋も綺麗でした。 オススメです。

It's a nice room for staying with 2 or 3 people. And you can rest comfortably on the night because it has a quite environment. Though the location is not close to the central of Osaka but you can access many places easily because it's close the train and bus station.

Kuyas place was hands down one of the best places i have ever stayed at. The flat was clean, spacious for Japanese standards and had a very nice interior. Kuya thought about every single detail and made us feel very welcome. He also left us some japanese chocolate, crisps, tea and shochou to try which we thought was above and beyond all expectations. It has a little balcony as well and a washing machine inside the apartment which was ideal. The subway ride to Osaka Station took 15 Minutes, if you get a day pass you can travel all around Osaka very cheap. The communication with Kuya was also awesome, he really made sure we were ok and happy and that everything was fine! Overall, the value for money was excellent and a bargain for what we paid for, considering all that we got! I would always come back and stay again. :)

It is absolutely worthwhile to live in Kuya's place. It's very tidy and clean, close to subway station. It will take around 40 minutes to Dontobori. We spent a very nice trip in Osaka. Kuya is very warm-hearted and prepared some snacks for us. A very Nice house and host~

The check in and check out process was a breeze. House was clean, comfortable and just a 2-3 mins walk to the subway (not the JR line though, for those with a Japan Rail Pass). There's a convenience store nearby too. Kuya was very communicative and ensured that we were comfortable with our stay. We find the pocket wifi extremely helpful!

Everything you need, plus extras... Comfy, affordable, and relaxing.

Kuya's place was near the train station. The room is clean and cozy. The place is big with nice lighting around the apartment. It has all the amenities needed and added an extras(water, cooking oil and welcome snacks/drinks). He always look out for us and answers questions promptly. He also gives clear directions that's why its easy to locate the place. Good service with a good price! Will definitely book here again if I go back to Osaka! ☺️

This is a great place to stay! Very clean and exactly how it looks in the picture. Perfect for a small family. The only minor issue I had was with the small window facing the main road. Being a light sleeper, I found the car lights a little distracting during the night. The host is extremely kind and considerate. I arrived later in the evening while it was raining and she asked me if I was hungry and if I would like her to drive me to a supermarket. She was very welcoming and easy to contact when I had any problems. I definitely recommend this place and would stay again if I am ever back in the area.

5人家族での帰省に利用させて頂きましたが、ホテルなどでは部屋が分かれてしまいますが、ここは5人一緒に過ごすことができ、それでも十分な広さがあり大変快適でした。

お世話になりました。 とても綺麗な部屋で快適に過ごせました。 是非また泊まらせて頂きたいです。 ありがとうございました。

This is the "Best" Apartment out of all the apartments we rented whilst our travel in Japan. The room is luxuriously designed, really clean, very spacious and overalls 5 star experience. The host is as well very helpful, one day we asked to call for a taxi, instead the host drive us to where we needed to go. We could not be more grateful and lucky to have stated with Unechambre SENRi apartment.

Owner is very helpful, the room is clean and huge. Photos are accurate. We had a great night there.

お部屋は、新しく清潔で綺麗でした。 近くには、コンビニや食事のできるお店があり、快適に過ごすことができました。 特に駐車場を自由に使わせてもらえたのは、よかったです。 ありがとうございました。

部屋はとても綺麗で居心地も良く、ホストさんはとても臨機応変に対応してくれました。文句の付け所がないです。周りの飲食店も美味しいお店でした!!

I cannot find a words to say how thankful I am, and my family, to the host. We were experiencing a live and death situation while we're stayed in this place. My 5 yo. daughter was having a seizure and stop breathing at midnight, and the very nice lady who owned this place (she live upstairs) helped us by calling the ambulance right away. She even wait for us to returned from hospital until 3 am in the morning! and by then, she cleaned up the room for us & help us tidy up our laundry. SO, THANK YOU from the deepest of my heart, and may God bless you and your family. For others who are going to stay in this place, I can assure you that you will be in good hand :) This place is as described and as in pictures shown here. Everything was new and well-maintained, and clean too. There's few restaurants next door, and they were serving a nice food. Convenience store just across the street. And there's a big family restaurant just across the street as well, so there's no problem to find food. The neighborhood was nice and save, but since this place was not far from the highway, sometimes you can hear a supercar passing with their accelerating engine :) Distancewise from monorail station, this place was not too far, but not too close as well, so if like us, travelling with kids and many stuff, taking a taxi would be better, easier and don't cost that much! Because if we walk slowly (with all of our things), it would take about 20 minutes. But the monorail station (Yamada), was very nice! there's a mall with big supermarket and stores just outside the station. This place also provide a massage chair! but since we don't understand how to operate it, so we didn't use it, too bad :D This place provide a microwave, a simple water boiler, and tea bags. The beds were nice, with fluffy feather blankets and pillows that gave us a comfortable sleeps. Thank you for letting us stayed in your place, and thank you once again for all the nice things you've done for us. And also for the gifts for my kids, they looooved it sooo much :) Definitely recommended for anyone whose looking for a place to stay around Senri chuo area.

一室を借りました。 小さなスペースですが綺麗で、ベッドだけでなく荷物を置くスペースもあり、 1,2人で泊まるには十分な空間があります。 持って行ったので使いませんでしたが、タオルや歯ブラシも出して頂きました。 エアビでは珍しくホスト夫妻も一緒に住んでいて、いろいろお世話になりました。 泊まる部屋は他にはないようなので、他のゲストとの交流はないと思いますが、 プライベートを確保して、安く他人の家に泊まりたい人にお勧めです。

Kou helped me organise my transport schedule everyday as I was making day trips out of Osaka. I celebrated Hamani with his family at Osaka Castle. His partner Yasuha cooked us all a traditional Japanese meal which was delicious and she laundered my clothes which was welcomed. They are a lovely family!

Westerners: Kou and his family were amazing. His wife Yasuha cooked delicious food every night. They have a beautiful baby girl, Rikuto, that loved to laugh. If you're visiting Osaka I'd definitely stay with them. They are extremely welcoming and helpful. 日本人: こうさんと彼の家族はとても素敵でした。彼の妻は毎晩おいしい料理を作った。彼らはかわいい赤ちゃんも持っている!あなたが大阪に行くなら、私は彼らと一緒に泊まることをお勧めします。悪い日本語を書きます御免なさい。 -Nathan 「ネイサン」
