Terrible goal
Unbelievably bad hotel. The beds were some of the most uncomfortable I've ever slept on. The beds felt like you were sleeping on concrete. You got one pillow which had bean bag beads in it. The towels were very dirty and there were hairs all over the bathroom. Truly awful and I'd never stay here again

Great hotel, perfect for a visit to Universal
Very comfortable hotel, in the perfect location for a visit to Universal Studios. The hotel can be accessed from the City Walk for easy access to shops, food and Universal. The staff were so polite and accommodating. Room was clean and a decent size. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect location if you're going to Universal
Great stay. Right at the entrance to USJ and the metro system. Would only have been better if the pillows weren't rock hard. Other than that, it was perfect.

Very close to Universal Studios Japan. Has Lawson, Starbucks, McDonalds (served us well for no-frills quick breakfast), Inaba Wako (Tonkatsu!), gyukatsu, several Takoyaki joints, 551Horai (pork buns and dumplings!), laundromat…all accessible downstairs. Just next to Universal Citywalk JR station, for easy trips to Umeda, Dotonburi, etc. Highly recommended hotel!
