best way from Kansai to Hostel in Osaka

Hi, I booked 2nights at Osaka, is there anyone know what's the best way to get there,lower cost as well?

Do I need to buy a rail pass for 1day or just buy the single ticket?

thanks

1. the Cheapest (1060yen)
KIX - Nankai Rapid Train(10 stops) - Shin-Imamiya - JR Loop Line(7 stops) - JR Fukushima station

2. the easiest(1420yen)
KIX - Limobus to JR Osaka station - JR Osaka - JR Loop Line(1 stops) - JR Fukushima station

Sorry to bother you again,can you please give me more details for transfer between those stations? Is it easy to find or take how long to walk? For cheapest way and the easiest way looks like all transfer 3times? I'm a bit confused....thanks again!

1. the Cheapest (1060yen)
KIX - Nankai Rapid Train(10 stops) - Shin-Imamiya - JR Loop Line(7 stops) - JR Fukushima station

2. the easiest(1160yen)
KIX - JR Rapid Train to JR Osaka station - JR Osaka - JR Loop Line(1 stops) - JR Fukushima station

1. Catch the Rapid train on Nankai Railway bound for Namba station and Get off the train at ShinImamiya station(10 stops). Pass through Nankai ticket gate, buy JR ticket(170yen) and enter JR ShinImamiya station. Catch a train on JR loop line to JR Fukushima station(7 stops).

2. Catch the Rapid train(not the Airport Express) on JR line and Get off the train at JR Nishikujo station (12 stops).
There, Catch a train on JR loop line to JR Fukushima station(2 stops), As Rapid train doesnt stop at JR Fukushima.

Alternatively, you can get off at JR Osaka station and transfer to a train on JR Loop line 1 stop back to Fukushima. Fare doesnt change.
