Why flow is worth more attention than square footage
People booking a standalone house tend to focus on whether there's enough space. Once they're actually staying, the most common complaint is something else: the space is in the wrong place. Shinsai Wings solves this with its room types: each room type is a complete unit in itself, with the kitchen, dining area and bathroom all inside it, so everything you need is within your own unit.
The walkthrough is deliberately shot as one continuous take, so you see how the room types relate to each other, beyond a set of pretty shots.
The room types in the video
Room B | Family Suite
One family in one room type, under a single booking. If you're bringing oversized luggage or your group needs special arrangements, tell us when you book and we'll help find the right room type.
Room C | Elegant Twin
Two people traveling together, or a pair within a larger group, usually choose this room type: a private bathroom with a bathtub.
Room D | Luxury Loft
Toward the end of the video the frame suddenly gets taller: that's the double-height loft (maisonette) structure, a space that opens up vertically. It's the most memorable room type in the building, and the best one for staying up late talking.
Every room type lets you close the door and live your own way
One scene recurs throughout the walkthrough and is worth noticing: every room type has its own bathroom, and all include a bathtub. Add the fact that each room type is a fully self-contained unit, one of each in the building, and the result is that different groups share one building while each has a bathroom of its own.
The space beyond the bedrooms appears in the video too: the private kitchen, the private dining area, and the large balcony with Room B, C and D. These three are where the “traveling together” part of a trip actually happens.
Getting here: location and nearest station
The video leaves out the journey. Shinsai Wings is in Taisho Ward, Osaka, and Taisho Station is on the JR Osaka Loop Line; Universal Studios Japan is 1 transfer at Nishikujo, about 18–22 minutes (varies slightly by train). For the route from the station, go by a map app; the lines and the area around the station are covered in Taisho Station Area Guide.
