“As a budget option in a prime location, this capsule hotel presents a mixed bag. While the communal baths and helpful staff are definite assets, the small capsules can get uncomfortably warm, and some guests have found the late-night atmosphere outside the hotel unsettling.”

Acceptable capsule stay

central locationproactive staffclean bathroomlarge tvmale spaunreliable wifi
The location is central. It is close to markets. The staff seemed proactive, so that was good. The shared bathroom and bath areas were acceptably clean.
The tv took up space in the capsule. That was annoying. The spa was only for men. The wifi was unreliable. it DIDN'T WORK at all.

The bed inside the capsule was surprisingly comfortable and it included a tv. the location is fantastic.. a major train station is just a short walk away and the area has many bars and restaurants. i appreciated that the front desk staff spoke english. they gave me towels and pajamas. Shower essentials were provided too.
the public bath setup meant there were no private showers, which might bother some guests.

Super Capsule Experience!

The location was indeed convenient, with easy access to many key attractions. The hotel offered fresh towels, pajamas, and even a comfy pillow. It was like such a treat! I was especially happy about the women's-only floor. It included a special code for entry.
I did find it a bit inconvenient that I had to leave the capsule every day between 11 AM and 3 PM for cleaning.

I was disappointed by the daily checkout requirement at 10 am , followed by a 2 pm check-in. this disrupted my schedule considerably , as i had to pack and store my luggage each day. the lack of individual air conditioning in the capsules made sleeping uncomfortable . It became too hot during the night , and airflow was insufficient.
