Pay for basic things. No refrigerator. The mattress is so thin which gave me lower back pain and pillows are low and provided only. Overall it’s okay and close to Tokyo Metro Subway(Iriya Station)

Excellent value for money for the price you paid if you just need somewhere to rest after a day exploring Tokyo. The staff are corteus and nice. One thing which I didn’t like is you have to pay for basic things like body soap, shampoo and conditioner which they supposed to provide but it’s okay, I guess it’s because of the cost of running a business and to make their prices competitive. Thanks for the experuence and will definitely stay again in the near future when I visit Tokyo again.

The hotel had a no shoes policy so every time I entered or left I would need to use and then discard cheap room slippers. It was a small thing but it was an additional step that sometimes felt a little inconvenient. I had one issue with a provided pillowcase that was dirty(it look like dried blood perhaps?). It got changed promptly however.

I liked the location of the property. It was less than 20 minutes from the nearest JR station and just over 10 minutes from the nearest metro station too. I liked that I was provided a private locker space with key to store my belongings. Being given fresh hand towels everyday was also appreciated.

Central city noise made it impossible to sleep without ear plugs and there weren't any kitchen facilities... Lights were also on until almost 2am some nights... but that's more of a personal problem, since I'm hypersensitive to noise and lighting. Other than those small things, I had a really nice stay. Although, it was a bit of walk to get to any of the sights, which is fine in cooler months but hard on the body in the summer.

The staff was very kind and helpful, plus the cost was wonderfully affordable! The number of amenities was good, too. It had almost everything you could want~ The showers for the female dorm were always available and the water was piping hot! They even had a full size fridge in the room for all of us to share! The storage lockers were probably the best part, along with the amount of privacy; despite there being so many women in the same room. The common room was spacious, albeit a bit stuffy and hot. I liked the setup!

the mattress was slightly too hard for my liking, but it was not a big problem.

Friendly bilingual staff, clean beds and capsules, much space for stuff in locked areas

The many unnecessary rules and strict, convoluted processes do give things a bit of a prison vibe. There's AC but it's still a little hot at night. Mattress is paper-thin; my back started hurting after the second night. Elevator system is very very very frustrating. Staircases cannot be used, so just one elevator - the only way to move throughout the building. So every time you want to move up/down just one floor, you often must wait several minutes.

Very near Ueno museums. Seems mostly Japanese locals staying there, plus a few tourists. Large common room for eating/working. No kitchen; just microwave and water boiler. Large luggage lockers away from the beds helps limit noise at night.

The entrances of each floor may carry cigarette smell since the smoking area is on the external stairwell

Extremely good value for money. Highly recommended if you can make do with the basic amenities

Nothing. I have stayed here before, and I was unlucky to be next to some person who snored loudly all night.

Abundant storage space, relatively clean and well maintained, amiable staff, has a sense of space and privacy unlike many typical capsule hotels squeezing everyone in one on top of another and next to a large row of capsules.

I like that it's clean and quiet.

Sleeping Arrangement: - found a couple of pubic hair on the mattress topper where you rest your head, not great...Maybe vacuum that next time? At least you can use a mattress cover to conceal it... Bathroom Related: Shower: - a little cramp - don't expect a steady stream of warm/hot water (maybe after a couple minutes of warm water, cool down for a minute or so) Luggage Storage: - the carpeted floor area in my closet smelt bad

Location: + 6 minute flat surface walk to Iriya Station Sleeping Arrangement: Bed: + pillow, mattress, duvet covering relatively clean + mattress: as someone who prefers more firm bedding, I found laying down quite comfortable + mini fan vent: really nice to have in a capsule like arrangement to control air quality Bathroom Related: Shower: + relatively clean + about 3 or more shower stalls + towel provided Toilet: + quite clean + seat bidet available + 2 stalls on my floor Sink: + clean + foaming soap provided Luggage Storage: + large, lock/key secure closet, so if you have a big roller bag, you are good to go

The younger staff that when asked questions would always respond with "I don't know".

I liked that it was walking distance from Iriya station. The neighborhood was also peaceful. I would love to book again the next time.

Lowest price for accommodations I've seen, great value for your money - and you're given basically a changing room for your closet and luggage storage. Free face towels, toothbrushes, and slippers were a great bonus. Lots of air purifiers all around the floor. Staff were very friendly, fluent in english, and hard at work cleaning everyday.

some male showers have irregular pressure and water temperature, bed was slightly dirty but was given a cover so it was not really a problem for me, cant complain for that price point

extremely cheap, huge locker for luggages

The Bed mattress is too hard to sleep ... if the bed mattress can be more soft not that hard....

Location is the best, also the price is value for money ~!

Stayed in May 2025

Not all the showers are equal, some has way less pressure than others. Net sometimes hang a bit.

I extended my stay 3 times, great hostel for the price. Plenty of room for your stuff and for you. Obviously its not perfect but I think its a great start if you on the budget.

Every time you enter the hostel you will need to put your shoes in a single-use plastic bag provided to you and carry them with you to your capsule. (Most people leave their shoes in their capsule's cupboard that they can lock). If it is rainy, then it can be inconvenient to leave your wet shoes in a plastic bag in a small, closed compartment for an extended period, as they may not dry or ventilate as effectively as they might on a shoe rack near the entrance. I imagine this protocol was introduced for safety reasons and it is not the most inconvenient thing in the world, but the process can be a pain sometimes, especially if there are multiple trying to enter or leave the (small) entrance of the hostel at once. Apart from this, my only negative experience was with some lodgers not respecting the rules of the hostel after hours. My capsule was located near the elevator and bathrooms on my floor, which meant that I could hear it when people came back from their nights out and were particularly loud. This led to me waking up a couple of times unnecessarily, but is more of the fault of the loud guests as opposed to the hostel itself.

This hostel is incredibly good value for the price and location. It is very well connected with the Tokyo metro, and is also just a 15 minutes walk from Ueno. (A main Tokyo train station). The capsules are larger than many others I've stayed in, each capsule has its own dedicated cupboard with a lock that has space for big luggage, and the amenities provide everything needed. Many cheap hostels have a small bean-bag pillow to sleep with, but this hostel uses quite large, decent quality pillows. The facilities are split by gender, including the bathrooms. The fact that you can enter and leave as you wish (24h reception) is also a big plus, as this is not always the case. I have lived in Japan since August 2024 and travelled regularly on a budget. It is normal to pay 2,500 - 4,000 yen for a cheap hostel in most places in Japan, so the fact that this hostel, which is located so centrally in the capital city, is available for just under 2,000 yen in 2025 despite inflation is very impressive.

You can get unlucky and get placed close to the ceiling ventilation fan which will be distracting and noisy at night. Earplugs will help with this to some extent. There's only 1 elevator and you can't use the stairs so it's just a minor inconvience to wait for the elevator. Many standard amenities such as shampoo, conditioner and body wash are not provided but they can be bought at the vendor machine for quite cheap prices on the first floor. It is quite the long walk to the nearest subway station.

The value that you get from the price is pretty great. The beds are pretty clean and the opportunity to change sheets daily was nice. Lots of available showers that were fairly clean. You are provided your own locker which is very spacious.

Smells of cigarette lingering around the rooms bc ppl too lazy to close the door. Shower heads dont let the water through.

I think its a great hostel for the price. You have plenty of space for your luggage and nobody sleeps next to you. Sleeping space fairly spacious as well.

I think the shower need some improvement

The staff is very friendly

Hard time sleeping because there were a lot of people sharing that hallway. I did pay for this expecting for there to be a lot of people. There was only one elevator. It sometimes took a while to get where you wanted because of that.

Being able to ask to change bed sheets after every night. I only did so after the third night, but I got what I asked for and was happy that they changed my bed sheets.

Stayed in April 2025

Elevator is a bit slow other than that all is exceptional. Highly reccommended

Location wise its near train station and tourist attraction areas. The bunk beds are comfortable and privacy is well maintained. Solo female travelers will feel safe as the rooms are equipped with a card key system. There is a big luggage locker for your luggage and they allow you to leave luggage before and after checkout. The area and facilities are clean and well maintained. Staff are very accommodating and speaks english well.

The front door was a bit tight trying to get shoes off and slippers on while other people were trying to pass as well but that’s literally about it. The place was great and the staff were so lovely.
