this is the first capsule hotel.
I was a little worried, but the staff was very kind
I was able to spend it with peace of mind.
The room is clean and I don't care about the sound next door
I was able to sleep slowly.
I was happy that the bedding was comfortable and I could choose a pillow.
I would like to stay again, thank you.
The location near Tokorozawa Station was very convenient. When I made my reservation, I requested a lower bunk, but the young man at the reception desk told me that the lower bunk was fully booked and I would have to stay in an upper bunk. When I replied, ”I requested that when I made the reservation,” an older staff member immediately changed me to a lower bunk after seeing my age (71) on my booking slip. I stayed on a Saturday, but there were actually plenty of vacant rooms, and several lower bunk rooms were still available.
The capsule was much more spacious and comfortable than other places, but I had some drawbacks: I was bothered by noise from the neighboring rooms and the upper bunk, the mattress was thin, which caused some back pain, and the air was very dry, leaving my lips chapped when I woke up in the morning. Relatively speaking, I'd rate it a fourth out of five.
Easy to find from Kita-Koshigaya train station.
Conveniently located amongst restaurants.
Easy self check in
Shared accommodation. Very rarely saw other patrons
Free WiFi
No parking.
The hotel is located in Nishikawaguchi, a little towards Kawaguchi. There are many Chinese people around, it is very lively at night, and there is also a red-light district.
If you go to Tokyo by train, you can transfer from Akabane to Ikebukuro and use the Tokyo Subway Pass. The one-day fare is 280+280+pass fee, so you can basically visit all the attractions in Tokyo in three days.
During the Spring Festival, the hotel is also 400 RMB per night. What do you want at this price?
