nine hours Kyoto

Check in - take a shower - sleep - prepare - check out. You have 9 hours for that! Men and women have to sleep separately in small capsules.

Service was timely. Rooms were clean. My only complaint would be to turn the front door into a push button door instead of an automatic door. The lobby is on the first floor right next to the reception desk, so when people are being checked in, the door is wide open and lets in the cold air. This makes the community lobby cold.

Close to a major shopping district and major train stations. Convenience store as well as a couple of media stores next door. Reception open 24 hours. Capsules are relatively big and are roughly 1.9m long. Duvet provided is pretty small though, bed feels like a sponge and the pillows are hard. Capsule uses an interesting gradual light based alarm instead of an audio alarm. Also a single power plug. Showers comes with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Loungewear, towels, slippers, storage lockers and toothbrush/toothpaste are provided. Any suitcases are just left on the ground floor beyond the reception. All rooms are gender segregated but the men's lounge is next to the reception so both genders are found there anyway. Toilets are western type and modern. Wi-fi is free and secured though I found it started to struggle in the morning as everybody started waking up. Overall kept clean. Staff knows a bit of English and were friendly.

This capsule hotel is very clean. You can book online on their own website, but you won't need to pay before hand. You will pay when you check in, unlike other hotels, you will need to check out every day before 10am, and check in again in the afternoon (not sure if it's 12 or 2pm). Oh and you pay for each night everytime you check in, means you'll need to keep enough money for you hotel. No breakfast is included in the hotel but you can bring food in and eat in the lounge. Oh, males and females are separated.

Lockers too small to store suit cases. Need to leave them on the bottom floor with no protection. Lifts slow and only 1 lift per gender, expect long waits. Staff don't understand English and give up easily. "Lounge" is tiny, uncomfortable and full of people trying to access their luggage due to tiny locker sizes. Pods very noisy at night time with coughing, farting and snoring. The alarm in the pod didn't ring (other customers complained about this). You'd have to use your phone, but that would wake other people. Pod mattress is very uncomfortable, sinks in the middle because the mattress is old. The few available toilets are not clean compared with other toilets in Japan. The location is good for Nikishi market
