Unfortunately some of the guests don't know the etiquette of shared spaces, and don't know how to clean up after themselves, but this is across the board problem with guest houses and visitors from different backgrounds who don't know how to use a toilet.

The staff were down to earth and caring, they have put those extra little touches to make the guest house feel homely.

The location is nice, just a short walk from a covered shopping area, convenience store and metro station. The owners are also very friendly and happy to help.

During my recent trip to Japan, staying at Usatsuno Osu was by far the best hospitality experience I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, the check-in process was seamless — my room was even ready well ahead of schedule, allowing me to check in early, which was such a relief after a long journey. The heart and soul of the hostel are the owner Kiyo and his wife, who are truly the friendliest and most helpful hosts I encountered on my entire trip. When I faced a difficult situation and needed to file a police report but couldn’t speak the language, Kiyo went out of his way to assist me, which meant the world to me. The bathroom facilities blew me away — they provide cleanser, toner, and even q-tips! Plus, the showers were stocked with a fantastic range of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, making it feel like a boutique hotel experience. What also stood out was the thoughtful touch of a comprehensive PDF guide they provide, packed with food recommendations, activities, and must-visit places, which made planning my days so easy and enjoyable. The hostel’s location is ideal — just a short walk to many attractions, with convenient public transport options nearby to explore further afield. I wholeheartedly recommend Usatsuno Osu to anyone visiting the area. The warmth and care I received truly made my stay unforgettable.

Beautifully designed, spacious and comfortable twin room, ample facilities and amenities and great communication with Yumiko-san from booking to check-in. Close to Osu Shotengai (for great secondhand shopping) and easy to get to sightseeing spots from Osu Kannon Station.

Enough shower rooms and good skin care products for everyone. Plus, a free bath towel and ear plugs to use, and cold & hot water dispenser for thirsty people like me!

There is a simple homy energy at Usatsuno Osu and that felt great! The dorm room I slept in was very comfortably equipped and it was very spacious. The bed was very comfy, the temp was very well conditioned (not too cold, not hot). The owners, Yumiko & Kiyu are great hosts, engaging in conversation and being friendly. they let me check in early (as it was possible at the time) and after checkout they let me leave my bags at the guesthouse for the duration of the day, allowing me to see more of Nagoya with ease! Locationwise, 15min walk to Nagoya station,10min walk to Osu neighbourhood and the shoping district, were you will find alot to see & do & eat! You will get a towl, fresh beddings, there are lockers, the Wifi was awesome, showers were clean with no issues. Had a lovely time, will gladly return! Thank you Kiyu and Yumiko 🧡✨👋🏻🙏🏼💯

The toilets and showers were seperate from the rooms.

Everything was clean and comfortable, staff were friendly, there was free tea and water. The room size was great. All day long there was chill lo-fi music playing in the background on the first floor lounge.

Room was a bit smaller than the pictures led it to be, but it was very comfortable and we found space for our stuff.

The staff were very friendly, gave a tour of the building, let us check in early and also store our luggage late for no extra fees. Easy walk from Nagoya station and some bus stops. Also conveniently located near to Osu shopping area and the Nagoya Science Museum. Many restaurants and amenities nearby. Staff were open about thin walls and people needing to be quiet at night, however the noise waa actually kept to a minimum and there were no concerns there.
