FDS Serene

We stayed at two separate apartments, room 101 (absolutely wonderful on the bottom floor with big porch) in the left hand corner of the complex. The complex is in a beautiful little traditional neighbourhood. Kids walking to and from school, many a good hello and smile from the locals. The area is very quiet at night, that being said, it is a 2 minute walk from a train that takes you absolutely anywhere, from shopping to clubbing in America Town in less than 15 minutes. A MUST DO is the family Isayaka literally a stone's throw owned by mother and daughter. The food and more importantly the hospitality is second to none. The Japanese know how to drink. I thought us Aussies were bad. There is seating for 6 max people. The apartment is very very big for Japanese standards. In the bathroom there is a gorgeous little bath with shower which my partner couldn't fit in the bath but I could being 5'3. My must have's when on holidays is a bath and separate loungeroom and this topped it with a washing machine and plenty of room to dry clothes. Everywhere in Japan they supply toiletries and hair dryers and straighteners as ours from Oz are 240 volt and theirs are 100 volt so please don't take yours and use there. We planned on staying four nights and after falling in love with the location and the apartment, spent a whole week there. Easy check in and check out, code supplied for access to the building and the apartment.

The pillows could be better. Both my partner and I woke up a bit rough from not having firm high pillows. The air conditioner in Room 305 is a bit temperamental.

I’d say this is the best place we stayed in Japan. The check-in was easy, the location was pretty close from the train station and the room was clean. Also, after being away from Osaka for almost a week, they kept my husband’s wedding ring! We thought we had lost it, but thanks to the staff we could pick it up with no issues.

Nothing.

Everything was perfect! The host was quick to respond to questions I had and the area was perfect for our family! Would definitely stay again.

I loved everything about it. No complaints!

Loved everything, it felt like home for us!

Nothing was wrong
