Reviews
- The room is spacious for my family of 2 adults and 1 kid. I really appreciate the sofa and dining table.
- The amenities are also complete with toothbrushes, shampoo, soap, vanity kit and hairdryer. They also provide microwave and tablewares.
- Many dryers and washing machines, so you don’t have to compete during night time.
- Check-in and check-out was swift.
Cons:
- The room is not the cleanest as the floor can be dusty.
- The location is not that good since you have to walk 10-15minutes to Namba or other closest stations. When I was dragging my big luggages from Namba with a tired kid after 6 hour long flight, that felt very long.
- The play room is also clearly not designed by someone who has kids - it looks pretty but not the most functional and practical for kids to play. I wish they can plan the toys better.
The hotel is about 10 minutes walk from Namba station and is tucked slightly away from the bustling Namba and yet is just a street away.
Will definitely come back again.
The room itself was very spacious, well equipped and clean with everything you could need. The bed itself was very comfy and we had a great few nights sleep.
We found the staff and check in experience really easy and signing up with a free membership beforehand gave us free early check in. The staff also assisted us with sending luggage onto Tokyo which was easy.
Only problem we had was a dirty duvet when we checked in but the staff fixed it within minutes!
I stayed at the Y&Y Hotel for two nights. While the hotel is within walking distance of the station and Dotonbori Market, the location is a bit far compared to other options. However, the walk is manageable if you're used to exploring on foot.
The room was small but very clean. However, in Japan, room cleaning often comes as an additional cost service, and this hotel follows that practice. The basic amenities provided were minimal compared to other hotels I stayed at during my trip.
One thing to note is that the reception desk isn’t staffed 24 hours like in most hotels. If you plan to check in outside their available hours, you’ll need to contact them in advance. On the plus side, they do offer luggage storage before check-in, which is helpful.
Overall, Y&Y Hotel is a decent choice if you’re looking for a clean, budget-friendly option and don’t mind the limited amenities or slightly inconvenient location.
