nine hours Kyoto

Hotel was excellent, staff were polite and the concept is great and value for money. Only down side, which is not the hotels fault. You are sharing with others and in close proximity to each other, so if you have the miss fortune, like I did, of having a snorer amongst the guests, you will not sleep as the capsule amplifies sounds. So make sure you pack earplugs.

The Capsule hotel is modern and clean. The separation of the showers/lockers and the rooms where you sleep is practical because the sleeping area will be quiet. I slept pretty well during my stay there. One thing to note is that you have to check out/pack and then check in again if you stay more than one day. However, you can leave your luggage there.

Very good- you get more then you pay for

Location was great and cheap, however the pillows were hard as rocks.

I stayed for one night in February 2019. Not as clean as it seems on the photo. place seems to be a bit run-down. Hotel should have more signages to warn people about the rules - quiet hours on the pod floors. There was a group of Spanish-speaking teenagers on my floor. They started speaking and laughing extremely loudly at 7am and didn't leave until ~8am. Despite multiple efforts to tell them it's disrespectful to other travellers, they continued to speak loudly. The incident was reported to the front desk before I check out.
