Staff were lovely and the hotel was so clean and comfortable. Location was central to a lot of shopping and dining options. Would absolutely stay here again. If you're considering a capsule/hostel stay in Japan, I'd highly recommend this one.
Truly fun and comfortable place to stay in Kyoto! Appreciated the quiet hours, comfortable capsule beds, and clean environment in all spaces. The lounge area was a great place to gather before and after each day and enjoy some downtime and food. Really appreciated the self-service kitchen area. Staff was friendly and helpful!
Really enjoyed my time as a solo traveler many people here were very social and I ended up making so many friends even thought I was only there for two days. The bed was comfortable and for a capsule hotel it was great !
Perfect for solo travelers coming to Kyoto. Great location, great accommodation. Occasional noise from folks getting in late, but that’s to be expected. Easy access, clean showers, nice coworking space in the lobby.
Great hostel would absolutely book again in the future close to the nishiki market makes shopping and finding good dining spot easy. The staff was excellent all spoke english all very kind. The beds were comfy, the people were cool, and the free beer was great.
Polite staff; clean; luggage storage. Good location on a very busy street packed with restaurants etc and a supermarket over the road. There’s an hour of Free Beer every night - it was pretty bad lager, think Fosters or something, but can’t complain. I liked the privacy of the individual cubicles and the way the beds could be controlled between flat and sitting up; I had a problem with my controller at one point but it was quickly sorted out by the staff. The cubicle was a little hot at night even with its fan on (which was quite loud). The showers were very good and clean but the toilet cubicles were tiny. I also didn’t like the fact the toilets were unisex; call me old fashioned but I don’t particularly like having to try to defecate as quietly as possible in a completely silent lavatory while there’s an attractive girl putting her makeup on immediately outside the door.
The lifts in this place drive me crazy: reception/kitchen is on the 8th floor - I was staying on the 7th floor - and the lifts were soooo slow and would sometime drop me at a random floor in the other direction I wanted to go. For some reason, guests were not allowed access to the stairway so Every time I went up to the kitchen I would have to use those damn lifts rather than just using the stairs as a normal person would and should.
Overall not a bad place to stay but I would personally not stay there again
Perfect location in Kyoto at the heart of all the shops and food. Staff was wonderful, free baggage storage was so helpful, and the evening free beer hour was fun meeting other travelers from around the world!
Warm, professional staff and spotless facilities. The location is perfect for exploring Kyoto’s famous sites. My second stay here—and I’ll gladly return again.
Thank you again to the staff for making our stay a pleasant one.
