    EW's Japan Trip at Okayama
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Capsule Room for Male
    • Stayed 1 night

    Unfortunately, the solo traveler’s cabin is poorly insulated, resulting in excessive noise. Despite wearing earplugs, I could distinctly hear the loud sounds of other guests sleeping from across the hallway. The entire experience was nothing short of dreadful.

    The hotel boasts an excellent location, just a 3-minute walk from the north exit of JR Okayama Station. Guests are warmly greeted with a complimentary welcome drink upon arrival. The public bath and sauna facilities are exceptional, offering a truly relaxing experience. Breakfast is a delightful treat, featuring local ingredients and flavors that are sure to leave an impression. A top choice for travelers seeking quality and convenience.

    The rooms can get a bit stuffy, and the walls are pretty thin so you hear everything your neighbors are doing. The bed was not particularly comfortable but completely passable for two nights.

    Great facilities and amenities, such as free towels, pajamas and other hygienic products. Very spacious capsule rooms and for what it costs seems way above rate. Less than 5 minutes from the central station in Okayama.

    If it has been a normal hostel a living room or kitchen would have been great. But to be honest other than that there is nothing negative to say.

    Everything was perfect - I was surprised when I realized it wasn’t a proper hostel.

    Some parts of the room were a little outdated, I saw some hair on my floor so not as clean as I expected. However everything else was great

    The location was very close to the train station - just a short 3 minute walk down the street. Located within the shopping arcade, convenient food spots nearby. There was a complimentary onsen which i liked and used, and even a sauna too. Clean and spacious room as well as bathroom. Complimentary drinks in the lobby and pajamas.

    Could do with an extension lead for the plug socket behind the TV. I arrived at 14:57 and staff made me wait 3 minutes to check in, seemed a bit petty. No good area for working. The "workspace" is very small and silent so you can't take calls in there.

    Stayed for one night, the cabin room was good, had most amenities needed. Free towels provided and clothes for going to the bath. The bathrooms were super clean and had toiletries and appliances. I didn't have time to try the gym or public bath but they looked good. Location was excellent - right next to the central station and lots of shops, restaurants and a mall.

    The Hotel experience for the price of a hostel!

    I thought the breakfast seemed a little overpriced, so I didn't get it and instead found a cafe nearby to eat at.

    Right next to Okayama JR station; The luxury of a hotel experience with the price tag of a cheap hostel stay! The small cabin room was very nice, and I enjoyed using the onsen, however there is also a gym and a cafeteria. Good value and conveniently close to all the transport options to get you around the city. The staff were very friendly too!

    The sound insulation is not the best. I always overheard slide door noises.

    It is a bargain with lots of included features, a big public bath, a gym, and more. Room are clean. Shared dressing and shower room is clean. Small but comfy room. The stuff are friendly, offering a welcoming drink despite I am late.

    Theres no “real door” for who is staying cabin room, only some kind of draw curtain, so you wont expect the good sound insulation.

    Very good location to the station. Restaurant and shops nearby, very clean room and facilities, you can ask front dest for more service.

    Being on the far end side of the bedroom space means you have to walk a bit of a distance just to get to the toilet, I wish there also was a toilet on the far end side of the space. If there was, wish this was communicated

    If you’re sensitive to noise, please note that the cabin rooms can get a little noisy with the sounds of people moving about in the evenings/mornings. Nothing too major though.

    The location is really good, right next to Okayama station. The hotel is very clean and professional. I was expecting something basic with a cabin room, but they definitely exceeded my expectations. Great for a short stay as a solo traveller.

    We stayed on a Friday night and unfortunately there was a lot of coming and going between 11.30 pm and 1.30am. Every time my neighbour went out of her capsule the magnetic blind would slam shut and she went back and forwards numerous times to bathroom not the slightest bit concerned that others were trying to sleep. I had to be up and going at 6am and only managed a couple of hours sleep.

    Everything. What a hidden gem of a hotel. Had everything I needed and the style of the place with a grand piano playing and cleanliness of all areas was great. Even offering a free alcholic beverage and free tea, coffee and soft drinks was an added bonus. Onsen was awesome too

    I liked that it was close to tourist areas. I was easily able to walk to Okayama Castle and to different sightseeing areas. As well as how convenient it was to get to the train station. I also enjoyed the onsen! The big onsen was so nice I enjoyed sitting in the hot water while being in the outdoor room, it felt so nice! The women's cabin also had a manga section, it was nice to read and look at all the different manga's available.

    Though this is a cabin, i still expected a bir more privacy. They informed that the door/curtain cannot be locked, which I was fine with since each room had a huge locker, so my valuables were safe. But at the top of the door was a gap, thus, I could hear everyone chatting, snoring, coughing, drying their hair at midnight or 5 am etc. In one word - noisy. I believe if the cabin was fully closed from any outside noise I'd give 10/10 to this stay.

    the location is perfect, staff was amazing, the facilities were tidy and clean with more than just 2 cabin showers...also the bed was really comfy

    There was a restaurant in the hotel but they only served breakfast. There was a microwave to heat up food and you could use the tables, but there was nowhere to dispose of rubbish and the bin in the room was tiny.

    Great location, less than 5 mins from the train station. Convenience store nearby as well as places to eat. Staff very friendly and helpful, I forgot my key card in the room and they promptly came to let me in. Having a sento in the hotel was great. All very clean. A very comfortable stay.
