It's very cozy and in a good location. Rooms are small and capsule-hotel style. Clean. Staff speaks english and is helpful. The street area below stays loud through the night.

The place was really cool and esthetic however the actually pods themselves were not comfortable and the cleanliness of the public bathroom wasn’t the greatest.

Rooms were dusty and cleanness was minimal. Improvements should be made for their facilities, such as the toilets and shower rooms.

Great little capsule hostel right in the heart of Shinjuku. Really loved the book library (even if most if not all was Japanese) and the staff were so friendly. Good lattes too! As someone told me there, it’s a hostel so don’t expect too much personal space but you definitely get enough here. Would love to be back.

Everything was great. Superb atmosphere. No complaints.. just the toilet needed a repair. The water bidet in the toilet stopped working after the first day of my stay and wasn’t fixed for the next 4 days..

Unique hotel for a different experience. Love that it’s at least on a high level for a nice view of Shinjuku when looking through their big wide windows. Lots of artsy books to browse slowly while chilling & eating at the rest area. The cabin rooms are ok. Had to be extra careful not to make any knocks & bumps in there to avoid disturbing the others haha. I got a cabin which I need to climb up to. The handrail is kinda clunky with an exposed screw at the top. The ladder to climb up could be upgraded to a wider step for easy secure stepping for my foot. If you are not fit, make sure to request for a bottom bunk. Climbing up & down is a mini workout 😅 Morning breakfast is nice. For my 1st day, the lady who served me was nice & respectful. On 2nd day, the guy who served me was kinda moody & not that welcoming but the cereal he made for me is thankfully good 😊

For the price is was a great value. However the bathrooms are very dirty. The benches by the windows are disgustingly dirty. The whole place needs a good cleaning.

Very unique stay but would not do again.I was drawn in by the novelty of this property and it is pretty cool but not practical when there are so many other affordable options around that might offer a cleaner more comfortable stay. It's my understanding you can pay to come up to enjoy the cafe and books without staying. Which I would highly recommend if your a book lover.

A nice experience. I would recommend it even though one must be prepared to take some noises from fellow travellers and the bar upstairs.
