Ayako and Haruki made my stay in Osaka a very pleasant one. They help me with everything.
how to navigate in the city, where can I find souvenirs and sweets I can bring home as a present, etc. We made takoyaki together. And their dog Hina is probably the most friendly dog I ever met.
If I go back to Osaka I will choose them as the host again.

My stay with Ayako was excellent. The location is in a nice part of Osaka and they were very hospitable.

This was a great homestay experience; I felt well looked after each day and the homestay is conveniently close to public transport. I would certainly recommend staying at this homestay if planning to visit Osaka as it is in a very nice and quiet area. Besides that, the hosts were simply amazing and kind.

My stay with Ayako and Haruki was the best I could have asked for in Osaka. From the chats we had at night about both our countries, to helping me plan my days in Osaka, Kyoto and Nara, (and even taking me to a local hot spring), their hospitality was simply the best.
I totally recommend a stay with Ayako and Haruki for anyone visiting Osaka and the nearby cities.November 2018
We stayed here for 3 nights and it was absolutely perfect! Everything was very clean and the breakfast was very tasty - we could choose between japanese and western style breakfast which was both very good! Ayako and her husband were both extremely polite, nice and interested in having a talk. I would definitely come back!:)
