Yeah, I think I stayed in the North one. They're two right next to eachother and the only difference is like 100 yen (that's like $1) and the curfew. I stayed at the place that was 100 yen less and you had to be back by midnight, and I stayed there 3 times in 3 different rooms for varying number of days.

Anyway, Osaka is *quite far* from Tokyo. It will be easy if you get a shinkansen train and will take about 2.5 hours if you get on an express. The other option that's cheaper (if you don't have a pass that lets you go on any train) is the night bus. That's yoyaku basu, it will leave 11PM or later and get you there like 5AM or earlier... and I don't know how you make arrangements exactly, but I know where you catch the bus at shinjuku. I'm guessing you could just go into the office there and make arrangements. If you can't find the map online, PM me and I'll try to figure out how to give you directions because where you catch the bus is a bit away from the main train station...

Good luck
