If you guys noticed the lack of posts last week, I've got an excuse. Two words: Osaka, Japan! Yup, was out of the country for a while, so wasn't able to blog much. My apologies! But, I am back, and I've got a few upcoming blog posts about our recently concluded trip! Excited much! It was my very first time in Japan and being a country that speaks little to no English, we had quite an adventure! But first, let me show you where we stayed.
A little back story: My best friend D went to Osaka early this year. When he got back, he had so much interesting stories that it made me want to go there and I soon found myself booking a flight to Osaka! While booking for the hotel accommodations, I remembered D telling me that the main shopping and eating place is called Shinsaibashi and Dotonbori, so I made sure that our hotel would be somewhere nearby. Best Western Hotel seemed like the perfect hotel. Reviews were good, and it's within walking distance to Shinsaibashi and Dotonbori.
Arriving in Osaka, our flight was delayed and even with directions to the hotel, we had a bit of a difficulty getting there. So when we finally got to Best Western, it was close to midnight. The good thing was that the hotel is located right across 7-Eleven! Off topic: Japan's 7-Eleven is AHHHMAZING. They have the most amazing selection of heat-and-serve food and it tastes soooo good! Even better than some restaurants here, I daresay.
Ok ok, enough stories, scroll down and see the place we called home for 4 nights!

The first reaction we had when we entered the hotel room was "Is this it?! It's so tiny!!" It was the smallest hotel room I've ever stayed in. I know hotels in Japan are known to be tiny, but somehow I didn't expect it to be that small. But aside from the size of the hotel room, we have no complaints. We have free wifi, the room is clean, the toiletries are complete, and the bathroom even has a heated toilet seat complete with push button bidet! How can you go wrong with that? 4.5 out of 5 stars!
Best Western Hotel Fino Osaka Shinsaibashi is at 1-2-19 Shinsaibashi, Chuo-ku, Osaka, Osaka Prefecture 542-0083, Japan
