poor management uncomfortable night

the shared bathrooms were really clean.

I booked an upper capsule, i got a lower one instead. the staff said all upper capsules were taken, and nothing could be done.. this seems poorly managed. the lockers are in the hallway. They were all full when i got there at 9:30 pm. i ended up cramming my suitcase and backpack into the capsule with me, and it was a really uncomfortable night.

Efficient Stay in a Prime Spot

bluetooth access ideal location

the bluetooth access to both the hotel and my capsule was convenient I found the check-in and check-out processes streamlined and efficient the location proved ideal with easy access to nearby amenities. i appreciated the cleanliness and organization of the space as well.

i noticed the lockers are situated outside the capsules this arrangement required navigating through doors to access belongings retrieving items from my backpack sometimes felt inconvenient due to the narrow corridor space.

Acceptable stay overall

convenient location clean bathroom poor ventilation insufficient soundproofing

The location was convenient. The bus stop near the train station was only a short walk. I appreciated the cleanliness of the bathroom. It was quite big and comfortable.

I would have preferred more air circulation inside the capsule. The earplugs did not help. I could still hear noises from other guests moving around.

adequate facilities for a capsule hotel

strategic location coop supermarket convenient pantry capsule assignment dry air small washroom

the location provided easy access to the city center. i could walk to the main train station in about 15 minutes. a coop supermarket was conveniently located right outside the building. the pantry had a microwave and offered both still and sparkling water.

i was assigned a lower capsule even though i booked an upper one. the staff said all upper capsules were taken and could not resolve this issue. the air inside the capsule felt dry, and i could not control the temperature. the shared washrooms felt small considering the price.

Adequate capsule stay

helpful staff capsule cleanliness bathroom cleanliness poor earplugs noise disturbances closet ventilation

The staff was helpful. They moved me to a room with a power socket to accommodate my medical equipment. the hotel overall was pleasing. i appreciated the value for money with the concept of capsule hotels offering privacy. the capsule was clean and the bathrooms were as well.

the earplugs provided did not block out the noise from other guests. i could hear other people moving around. i did not sleep well as a result. the closet for storing items lacked ventilation, so shoes and other belongings did not get fresh air.
