I had a great stay in the capsule hotel. The capsule itself was very comfortable, with the built-in fan and shelf and hooks and charging PowerPoint. The shared facilities like the kitchen and bathrooms were very efficient and comfortable too. The building is iconic! And the messages around the building from the Staff are also iconic. All in all I thoroughly recommend this friendly and clean hotel.

Overall a good hotel. Excellent location and very clean. Kitchen is poorly equipped - one spoon, 2 glasses, 2 cheap plastic bowls. There didn’t seem to be much hot water in the evening sometimes. I would stay here again as it’s very cheap and well located. There is a comfortable lobby area and pretty decent wifi. Lots of showers and toilets plus laundry room.
