I booked the room for 4 people but used it for 2. There are 2 bunk beds. It will be too tight for 4 people, but for 2 is comfortable with sufficient space for 2 medium luggages. I've also used the double room for myself which is comfortable for myself alone but will be tight for 2. The hostel has no elevator and rooms are on level 1 and 2. There are basic shampoo, conditioner and body wash and a mini fridge in the room. No kettles. Hot and cold water is available in the reception area where you can also eat your meals. For some rooms, the curtains do not fully block out the morning sun. The bathrooms do not have sufficient hooks for clothes/hanging toiletries bags. If you would like to send your luggage, make sure the courier company can provide a certain timing and communicate this to the hostel, as there is no staff manning the reception like a regular hotel. There is a huge supermarket "Life Tamadehigashi" within walking distance - we enjoyed getting our cheap and fresh sashimi and snacks (not the one near hostel but further away). While the Hostel is near Tamade station which is a little away from the happening tourist areas, it is on the blue line that does not need transfer to some shopping areas or just one transfer to the red line to Namba. 7-11 is just outside. Best thing is it is near Kishinosato-Tamade station which is the Nankai line that takes you to Sakai station, where you can easily take a rapid train to Kansai airport. It is a pleasant stay overall.
