    Very clean, and great hostel concept. Share kitchen and lots of desk space. Decent internet speeds.

    The rooms were very warm despite asking the staff to turn temp down. The two exhaust fans were not enough to ventilate the sleeping space. I hit my head multiple times when trying to navigate under the bunk.

    Great place! - Comfy bed - Spacious desk with dedicated light - Dimmable room light - Good floor space too! - USB + power sockets by bed and desk - Shared bathroom on girls floor full of extras - Quiet but next to the station - Better soundproofing than I thought - Clean

    Not a lot of places for dinner/coffee around Bumped my head a couple of times on the door :D White opaque windows (it would be good to see outside and check the weather! ;D)

    I’ve stayed in many capsule hotels across Japan, and the circle apartment is right there at the top in terms of size, comfort, and price. The facilities are clean and spacious, each capsule has a work desk and excellent sound isolation; there is also a café on the ground floor; and the hotel is steps away from the train station. All in all, highly recommended!

    Very clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Very convenient

    No cafe/ lounge area. The drier was very noisy and located in the kitchen area so it made the kitchen noisy if someone was doing laundry. And have to go down 2 floors to have a shower

    Great location, right in front of Ugata Station. This place seems new so everything looks spotless. The staff is very helpful. There is a washer and dryer set in the shared kitchen space but I did not get the chance to use either. The working space is spacious. I stayed in a room with desk so I have my own working space. But it's bunk bed style small space so be careful or you'll likely bump you head.

    Circle Apt. falls within the ring of self service, remote controlled lodging. Yet someone appears for check-in from 3 to 8-ish PM. Your electronic card opens doors to the women's floor and showers or the men's floor and showers and the mixed top floor and kitchen & dining area. Shoes were outside the occupied capsules. Inside was a sit-up space and bed. Our compartments had a desk, chair and loft bed. Well designed and built. Quiet and comfortable. It doesn't feel as basic as some spaces. No TV, satin covers and overheating.

    Although across from the train and bus station, you have to cross National Route 23. Traffic was commuter, morning and evening to and from work, but look both ways. The circle is sound proof. When I went outside during a surge, the traffic noise surprised me. Closest combini is a block away for supper and breakfast provisions.

    Location next to the station was great. Showers were very nice.

    Room was hot despite AC, it would have been nice to have complimentary water bottles.

    Clean and spacious micro-rooms, great price, nice staff.

    The ladder leading up to the room was difficult to climb. The steps were too close together and slippery with socks. The cafe was not open on Sunday. This was unexpected and unfortunate since there are not many local breakfast options.

    Property response:

    Thank you for staying with us. Sorry, the cafe was temporarily closed. We look forward to seeing you again.

    Great facilities, lovely staff, delicious breakfast. I had a great stay that exceeded my expectations! Perfect for remote working while also exploring the peninsula of Ise-Shima

    Not much that I didn't like. The lack of windows / views does make it feel claustrophobic at times, so I would just not recommend staying there 24/7, but instead explore the surroundings!

    Very new and clean. There is also a Korean restaurant on the 1st floor that is open until late.

    Thank you very much for staying at the-circle-apartment this time. Thank you also for your review! We are very pleased to receive high praise in each category. Shortly after opening, I think that there were many things that were not good enough, but I am relieved that you seemed to be able to spend a comfortable time. I heard that you are going to the sea in your story, but did you see the beautiful sea of Shima? If you have a chance to come near us again, please use it! the-circle-apartment
