I really liked my stay here in a lot of ways it was excellent, my only gripe would be that climbing the ladder to the top bunk was mildly cumbersome and if you're not in good physical condition, it's going to be very difficult. The ladder also has a sticky white resin that gunks up the hand when clasped to climb the ladder... that said, the capsule was more spacious than more, the location was epic, & the hostel runs a cafe so you can chill/socialize with people that you've met if you're into that sort of thing.

If you're sensitive to noise this place is not for you! It is not only other people but a constant noise like an aeroplane taking off. The sheet they supply (to make your own bed) barely covers the plastic mattress. For the price I expected better.

Not a bad place at all, especially for that price point. I paid about $34 a day. Just a little not clean feeling, also the neighborhood around there is a bit too quiet for Tokyo. Also transportation to get around Tokyo is hard from there. But again very good price so overall a solid place, 4 stars!

Very clean property I love it. However they reserved upper bed for me (55y). It was so hard to climb up. And some customers don’t mind leaving hair in washbasins.

This was a great one night stay for me! Check-in was easy and I was happy to see the staff speaking English. The bed was comfortable and didn’t feel claustrophobic, and the washrooms were well maintained. I also appreciated the locker storage because that made me feel better about keeping my lugggae stored while I went out. The area was also very convenient to get to the buses and stations, and the food around was incredible! The cafe downstairs is also worth a visit - their oat latte was amazing and definitely hit the spot. Would come back to stay at this hostel for sure.

We loved this neighborhood, just a 10 min walk from Takeshita Street, with all the shops and cafes! The hostel has a nice cafe on the first floor, and a 7-11 just down the block. We would stay again, nice showers and bathrooms, cozy beds!

Staff are friendly and informative. The cafe is excellent. The building is dated but clean. A bit hard get up to some of the pod so ask ahead of time via email to get the lower bunker. It is good and affordable alternative if you only want a place to sleep at the end of your day.

simply perfect for the solo traveler
Facilities consist of only a bed, toilets, lockers, and showers in a room that is reminiscent of a beehive, which is kind of charming. The cafe on the bottom floor has amazing food, coffee, vibes, and even Luup parking. I've stayed in many similar places during my Japan travels, but none rival the way locals embrace and fill the cafe day and night. They are definitely doing something right. I wished for a refrigerator during my week stay, but what am i doing eating in when in the dining capital of the world? The hostel is located in frankly the hippest neighborhood I've stayed, Japan wide, with Shibuya just down Kamiyama street (hello walking home after clubbing) and Harajuku only a bit further. Amazing coffee on every block, a Blue Lug bicycle shop (iykyk) immediate train access, and fantastic food everywhere. My only knock on the neighborhood from a tourist perspective is that so many of the dining options are european. Book early, as beds are full almost every night.

Very nice hostel but you do have to walk up a big flight of stairs with your luggage but the hostel women helped me. Also make sure you buy ear- plugs or else you’ll hear people digging in there bags all night long lol! I’d stay here again very clean!

Convenient location
Hostel was conveniently located. Could walk to Harajuku within 20mins. The stairs to the hostel was pretty steep though so carrying of heavy luggage up was a bit of a hassle.
