In order to find a cheap and clean, probably convenient and traditional place to stay, I had searched the internet for a while and finally pick U-en Hostel as the most appropriate choice for this trip.
The hostel is located in a 103 years old apartment-looks very traditionally Japanese.
It is conveniently located at the center of Osaka City(at point B), which is the hub of the entire Kansai. It is very close to the 'Union Station' of Osaka---Umeda Station, only 15 min by walking. As you may not know that there are many private railway carriers in Kansai rather than Via-rail monopoly in Ontario. So it is urgent to live close to the Umeda station and then I could choose different options.
The price is also acceptable with cheapest room starting at 2700 Yen, or~$30 per night, which is below my budget.
