Toyoko Inn Higashi-osaka

Breakfast menu was great and being close to the JR line made our travelling easier

I stayed quite a few days here, the Eiwa stations are just crossing the street, it was really easy to use as starting point to commute to other transport main lines. Breakfast was really good, employees kind and helpful, they had no issue in communicating through translator which was a good thing as a non Japanese speaker. The room was clean as the overall hotel and surroundings, really recommended to choose as a base point to visit surroundings like Kyoto, Kobe, Nara and Osaka (even more places, as JR line is just a few meters and connects wonderfully to more lines that expand the possibilities of knowing less touristy places)

The room was tiny, but it was okay just for sleeping.

Great budget choice a bit out of the city center, but with convenient one-train access to Shin-Osaka (shinkansen station) and Namba/Dotonbori. Breakfast is solid, especially at this price point. As a new hotel, everything is in great shape.
