    This place is for straight guys and the cameras is everywhere, so no chance for gay.

    This is a great sauna place to stay with all kind of spa facilities.

    The capsule’s input and output. The controls inside the capsule were very outdated and volume was low. My provided headphone did not work in the jack.

    Checking was easy. Spa and bathing area were very clean. They even had a shaving and touch up area which was surprising.

    The building is old and it has to be renovated or refurbished. The locker rooms are small even for backpackers. No clear instructions for the facilities. In short it was not that organized as compared to other hostels in Japan.

    It is close to the subway or train station, restaurants, shopping malls and more.

    Because it's a capsule hotel, you can hear a lot of sounds surrounding you

    It's close to the center of Osaka, easy to transport to other places. Very suitable for a male travelling alone.

    It’s my sort of health retreat when there so I don’t drink and use the facilities which are well maintained.

    Not for everyone but suits me . It takes a little time to work in with the Japanese culture but enjoy it once I am there.

    You have to check-in and out everyday no matter how many night you stay!

    You have to check out everyday at 10am and check in again at 4pm, no matter how many nights you stay. This is a very weird regulation. Booking.com should make a remark about checking in and out on daily basis even you booked for more than one night. I suggest you stay only one night otherwise you have to check in and out everyday which is quite frustrating. There are penalty if you check out after 10am which is 150 yen per 30 minutes late check out.

    This place has onnsen, sauna, bathing amenties, towels, everythings you need for you. Just walk in empty handed you will get everything inside. This inn lpcated in a perfect locations full of nightlife and resturants.

    Personally, I didnt feel comfortable with the fact that they have only open bathroom that you have to share with all people. Lucky I was staying only for a night, so not bathing for a day wont harm anyways.

    The location is really close to Osaka - Umeda Station and its in the main street where there are a lot of Izakayas in surrounding. This property is together with sauna so, if that what you are looking for, well you get two in one :)

    Not a bad place to crash.

    Pillow was way too hard for me, so i used the provided futon, rolled it up and used it as a softener. Changing may be a little difficult in the locker rooms because of the cramped space.

    Location-wise, the capsule was very near the center of Osaka, making it a good location. It is also in the middle of a shopping district so you can have everything you need nearby, especially if nightlife is what you're looking for. The onsen and sauna were also good. There was one fluent english-speaking staff at night, so it may help you. I also had a dry massage there, and the elderly lady knew how to properly massage. She sounded a little agitated, though, but other than that, it was a proper massage. Overall, this is not a bad place to crash if you're looking for somewhere nearby, considering its cost and locations, and as long as you're already comfortable with the public onsen culture.

    The location is great. The spa and baths are spread across 2 floors and have an extra open onsen at the roof. Everything is clean and nicely tidied up with lots of things provided for comfort and usage. The capsules are quiet and nice - a little old and the place has visibly shown it's age - but that still adds to the retro charm of the place. Not much you need to require from a proper capsule hotel apart from sleeping capsule place to clean yourself and relax as well as the peace of mind. Funnily the carpet imitates wooden panels but is soft everywhere to ensure comfortable walking without shoes (shoes are left in the shoe lockers before getting to the floor.

    They make you check-out and check-in everyday which is a bit weird. They also have a weird mechanism where every time you go out you need to hand them the room key in exchange for the shoe locker keys, super convoluted. Also the staff was not very flexible when handling customer requests.

    Historic first capsule hotel in Japan designed by Kurokawa, I was glad to see they retained some architectural and design elements of the original.it would have been amazing to see how it was in 1979 (they had so pictures of how it was, extra groovy 70s style). Anyway, the capsules have been updated, which is a major plus. There are saunas, indoor and outdoor baths, and even a small pool to enjoy here, as well as many relaxation spaces. Locker area looks retro too, which I found fun. Almost every guest here was Japanese, adding to the feel of authentic non touristic Japan.
