I traveled to Tokyo alone, and I booked my first two nights at this capsule hotel, for a true Japanese experience. That is EXACTLY what I got. I have to admit, it was a bit scary. Actually being in a capsule is not scary (unless you are claustrophobic, in which case I would definitely avoid capsules). There is plenty of... more

Stayed here for one night, could have stayed here longer. Good value for money, cheapest accommodation in Tokyo. Good location next to subway, and 24 hour check in/check out. Stayed here for the novelty factor, to try an alternative type of accommodation. Enjoyed the experience.

Men and women sleep... more

Spending the days wandering through a rainy Tokyo, it was quite cosy entering your private capsule of 1x2x1m and not claustrophobic as one might think. Inside... more
