I had an enjoyable stay at this hostel in Tokyo! Although I shared the room with 15 other people, it was surprisingly quiet and peaceful. Everything was clean and tidy, which made me feel very comfortable. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. The surrounding area is extremely convenient, offering easy access to transportation and numerous nearby facilities. One of my favourite parts was the lounge view, where you can see the Tokyo Skytree right from there! The night view is fantastic! All in all, I had a great experience and would definitely stay here again!

Not again

I normally give raving reviews to capsule hostels in Japan, but man was this a disappointment. I had to find a place to stay for one night and I totally should have paid more. The place was super crowded, the pods were crazy tiny, and there was no storage space. People on my floor (women only), while respectful, were dirty as hell. People took shoes into the room when they should have left the shoes outside in the locker. Worse yet they put shoes on the rack where you can put your luggage and I'd come back to the room with a pair of disgusting smelly platform next to my stuff. I couldn't stand it and was lucky that they gave me a spot next to the window so there's some space on the side. The pod was OK but it's way too many beds in one room. I know it's Tokyo but I've stayed in much better capsules than this one. That said it is indeed very cheap and in a safe neighbourhood which is technically walkable to Ueno (20 min on foot). I can also tell the cleaners do their absolute best to keep this place clean but man 4 (5?6? can't remember) shower stalls for the whole building is just not enough. I made sure I took an early shower before the stall gets wrecked. Otherwise there were enough toilets and sinks on each floor which was appreciated. There's a tiny space upstairs which you can sit and do some work but gets crowded fast. All in all, avoid, come only if you're broke.

I was on the fifth floor on a top bunk. Thought I had privacy until I noticed a neighbor sat up in his bunk staring at my through my mirror. Had freezing ac blowing on me at 3am in the morning. Keep in mind it’s December... staff moved me to a different bunk for the following night. If on a top bunk, make sure your bunk isn’t in path of the heater/ac vents. Bathroom counter on my level was disgusting, didn’t feel comfortable putting my toiletry bag down on it. They used a porous wood and there is black mold(?) growing. Showers are in basement, entire basement smells terrible, musty/moldy. Highly suggest the management/owners replaced the individual level counters with something non-porous and got proper ventilation for the basement. Also suggest perhaps adding upper curtains to bunks and shielding from direct ac/heater vents. They must be burning incense here, I didn’t see it but smelled it and my luggage and all my clothing had a strong odor of it once I checked out. Positive aspects there are a few, staff was super friendly and helpful. Sheets and pillows etc were clean. Until I was sure changes/upgrades have been made, I wouldn’t stay here again personally.

The check in was fine, but I do not suggest that anyone stay here because there is MOLD growing in the vents. The mold is especially bad in the shower rooms where it is visible in the ceiling vents and the moldy smelly is very strong. The sinks in the women’s bathroom on the 3rd floor also have mold growing around the wooden sink counters. To cover the smell the staff burn incense on the entrance/ check in floor and put oderizers in the elevators and on each floor. If a mold inspector steps foot in there it would be shut down immediately.
