excellent location respectful guests comfy pillow

I found the location excellent with respectful guests. All amenities were available 24/7. Fresh towels, a tv, and an alarm clock were provided in my pod. A comfy pillow and pajamas added to the convenience.

The capsule felt small and somewhat dusty, and the mattress was quite thin, which affected comfort

a decent experience.

fantastic location nice sauna comfortable lounge cigarette smell unavailable refrigerator dirty microwave

the location was fantastic. it was a few minutes walk from the station. i also liked the sauna and baths, they were really nice, so relaxing after a long day. there was a spacious and comfortable lounge area too.

The building reeked of cigarettes, so many guests were smoking. there was no refrigerator available, so i couldn't store any leftovers. That was a bummer. the microwave area wasn't very clean.

thin futons small elevator

The staff provided necessary amenities such as slippers, towels, and pajamas. This was acceptable.

the thin futons made sleep uncomfortable. i woke often to change position because i could not get comfortable. there was also only one small elevator to traverse between floors, so i had to wait a long time for it at times.

I found GREAT value for the cost, and the location was quite central. The staff was very friendly and spoke English well (they helped me use the onsen). The common room was cozy, and the hotel felt secure due to the separate women's floor, accessible via a code.

I noticed a slight odor in the lobby from shoes being stored there.
