Hotel Live Max Premium Umeda East

This was the smallest hotel on our trip, but it was fine (the bed is pretty small though). You have to pay for the onsen even if you don't use it, but it wasn't a lot of money.

Great Comfort Great location. Onsite Onsen is a must. Rooftop dining among two other restaurants. Culinary staff trained by professional offer palate stimulating dishes. Room layout is expected for a high rise building. Sleep easy in a full size bed with a very nice view.

My good rating is relative to the price, which is very cheap. This is a very budget hotel - I checked in and out using a kiosk in front. Very easy even without any Japanese. No key card required to use the elevator, which might be a concern for some. Also there's a 150 yen a night bathhouse fee, even if you don't use it (I didn't). The area is very quiet. The rooms are small but larger than I expected given the price. Overall I'd consider it if you're on a low budget and just need a place to crash.

Property was great and even had a microwave in the room. I only wish there were hooks in the bathroom to hang your towel or clothes but otherwise the location was great and walkable to train stations and 7 mins walk from a mall. Definitely recommend
