goodroom residence 大阪豊中 is a monthly coliving residence in the Kitasetsuri area of Toyonaka, operated by goodroom Subs Kurashi. Located 9 minutes on foot from Hotarugaike Stationon the Hankyu Takarazuka Line, it puts Osaka Umeda 15 minutes away by train and Itami Airport (Osaka International Airport) 15 minutes away on foot. Unusually convenient for remote workers who fly frequently.
The building is the first goodroom residence to open in the Kansai region. Rooms range from compact solo units (9.9 sqm) to larger moderate and superior rooms (20–21.7 sqm). Most room types include an in-room kitchen, microwave, and fridge. The Compact and Basic types are exceptions. Semi-double beds, a desk, and a closet come standard. Reviewers consistently praise the rooms as quiet and well-insulated, notably so given the proximity to the airport.

On-site parking is available under a separate contract, and a bike rental station is located nearby. There is no elevator in the building.
