Matsuyama & Osaka Trip (Osaka Day 1)

Headed back to Osaka. We stayed at a ex love hotel that is converted into business hotel. It is still surrounded by many love hotels though and the rate is really cheap - $60 per night for 2 and the room is VERY spacious. Great deal if you don't mind the area and 15 minutes away from the bus terminal to the airport (Mixed reviews from agoda so please check the review). The room also had various food menu to call out and they will send food to the room, food was good and affordable. We had that for 2 nights haha.

Moved on to visit Osaka Castle, shrines and had our takoyaki before we went back to the hotel.
