Accommodation in Osaka Vol.1

If you are looking for a cheap accommodation for a short and medium length stay, you should check the Internet for "外人ハウス　Gaijin house - Foreigner house", "外国人ハウス　Gaikokujin house - Foreigner house", "ゲストハウス Guest House" or "シェアハウス Share house"

It will be shared bathroom, kitchen and toilet.

It is also a good idea for new comers to stay at those places until becoming familiar with the area.

These are just examples I found searching on Google.
