Holiday Inn Express Osaka City Center Midosuji

I really appreciated that breakfast was included.\nThere was a great variety of breads, plus curry, grilled fish, sausages, scrambled eggs, simmered hijiki seaweed, ginger-simmered eggplant and green beans, homemade tofu, natto, yogurt, 4–5 kinds of cereal, several types of milk, and about six kinds of coffee to choose from.\nMost guests were from overseas, so it felt like being on an international trip.\nIt was hard to believe it was free—I was very satisfied.\nAmenities include a toothbrush and hair dryer, as well as coffee and tea.\nI also liked that there is a water dispenser on each floor.\nOne small thing: I forgot my hairbrush and received one at the front desk, but it was a comb—I would have preferred a brush.\nThere is also a humidifier with an air purifier; I recommend it.\nI’d love to stay again.

I stayed here to watch a baseball game at Kyocera Dome. The location was convenient, the bed was comfortable, and the room was new and very clean.One issue was the checkout time. I booked a Plan with a 1:00 PM checkout, and my Reservation details also clearly showed 1:00 PM. However, at check-in I was told checkout was 11:00 AM. I explained this on the spot and showed the booking information from the site, so I thought it had been understood, but after 11:00 AM the next day I received a call from the front desk telling me it was time to check out. It was disappointing that this site’s Plan could not be properly handled by the Hotel.
