First of all, accessibility is very good. It's almost right when you come out of Shin-Imamiya Station. The reception was good and I liked the room for the price. However, the room Wi-Fi is slow and inconvenient. The shower room and public bath are separate and shared. I think it's a good choice if you don't care much about accommodation.

Although it is cheap and conveniently located....but if you are bringing your family, just listen...the girls' public bathroom is terrible...the smell of smoke is very strong on the third floor...if you are a boy...

The bathroom is a little dirty. I haven't cleaned the clogged drains.Even though I was at the front desk by 12:00 for check-out, the front desk staff spent more than 5 minutes explaining to other customers, so I was charged for one night's stay even though it was only 12:02. .The room wasn't particularly dirty, and I was grateful that an extension cord was provided.

I understand you get what you pay forBut hotels of similar price and levelIt's definitely easy to find better ones in JapanHygiene, comfort, etc. are not very goodI was even woken up by the bedside alarm clock at 2:30 in the middle of the night.I guess it was set by the previous customer?But you have to take the initiative to check whether the alarm clock is set in the room.This is the first time I've seen itPassengers who want to go please pay attention to

I stayed here in a capsule for about 3 months due to work.We can give advice from a different perspective than everyone from the perspective of long-term stays.① Illegal foreigners (particularly Vietnamese) easily use fake certificates to impersonate other people and stay overnight. (All the receptionists on the first floor are foreigners, there is no Japanese person)②Unlike other hotels, the front desk is open 24 hours a day, so dark-skinned Southern and Southeast Asian foreigners (Vietnamese, Indonesian, Thai, Cambodian, Indian?) who are not guests come and go as they please, especially in the middle of the night. (I saw it several times)③Since the room key is neither a card nor a PIN number, illegal foreigners can easily make duplicate keys. (You don't necessarily have to hand over the key to the reception on the first floor when you go out for consecutive nights)Criminals aim to steal wallets, passports, driver's licenses, credit cards, jewelry, and communication devices such as smartphones during times like showers.This hotel is a foreign hotel located in Japan.Please be very careful.④There is only one security camera per floor (only in front of the elevator), so there are many blind spots, making the hotel a perfect target for criminals (especially illegal foreigners).⑤I have some advice especially for women. There is also the possibility that multiple Asian foreigners may use a duplicate key to break into your room in the middle of the night.It's okay if it's just a robbery, but it can also be life-threatening.Please keep in mind that there is such a worst risk and danger due to the structure of this hotel. I have previously reported this matter to the Immigration Bureau and the Osaka City Public Health Center by phone.The structure of the building is designed to make it easy for criminals to escape (there are places on each floor where you can escape through iron bars by opening the windows).**Regarding ①, I actually ran into one of the Vietnamese trainees (who ran away and stayed illegally just before the expiration of his stay), who I had known from my previous workplace, at the hotel, and a group of four Vietnamese immediately ran away.There are other things I noticed, but they are not essential and are trivial, so I will leave them to others. Due to the location, there are a lot of illegally staying foreigners, so it can't be said that it's safe, so please be very conscious of crisis management.Transportation is very convenient, with easy access to JR, Nankai Railway, Osaka Metro, and Osaka City Bus, and Tsutenkaku and Nihonbashi Electric Town are also within walking distance.The most convenient thing about staying in this area is that MEGA Don Quijote is within walking distance. If it wasn't for this, I think I would have stayed in another area. (As a side note, a Vietnamese thief was previously arrested at MEGA Don Quijote here)

Due to circumstances, I needed to go to bed right away that day, so I stayed one night.Even though it's a non-smoking room, there's a slight smell of cigarettes, and I feel worried about security.Really just for sleeping.It was on sale that day, so I got it cheap at around 2,500 yen.Capsule hotels will also be slightly more expensive in 2024 if they are regular prices.Although it's cheap, it's not the kind of place where you can spend a pleasant time.Accommodation without meals, no meals, and poor amenities.The capsule hotel has separate rooms on the upper and lower sides.You can avoid having to share a room, so it's more like a private room.However, the key is so old-fashioned that I'm afraid of duplicating it.It might be better to go to an internet cafe with private rooms where you can sleep.People who want to stay in a cheap place near NishinariBecause there are so many of them, I was worried about the hot topic of bed bugs and ticks.Fortunately, I didn't have to receive that souvenir.There is a large public bath, but the water is a bit dirty as it is late.There was a notice on the sign saying not to do anything big, so I went near Nishinari.Among the people who want to stay overnight, there are probably people with slightly different hobbies.Is there only one person at the reception all night?I stayed there because I needed to stop suddenly that day, but if it wasn't for that,It's a hotel I didn't think I'd like to stay at, butIt lacks comfort and safety, but it's enough for just sleeping.I am grateful that there is a place where I can sleep at an affordable price.However, it is highly rated on accommodation sites based on reviews from overseas.Honestly, if you're looking for cleanliness and comfort, it's a tough place.

good pointsGood location right next to the stationUnprecedented price of ¥2,000 (single capsule) via the reservation siteBad placemattress is very hardOverall the room is dirtyThere are few anime teas (bath towels only)The noise from the hallway and the room next door could be heard (I had a hard time sleeping because of the foreigners talking loudly in the middle of the night)Internet cafes may still be more comfortable.Even if it's only for one night, staying for consecutive nights is tough...I learned firsthand that it is better not to skimp on accommodation costs.

You can hear people's voices and there is no soundproofing.There is about 20cm of space at the top.It's cheap, so I don't think it can be helped.It seems that the majority of the customers are foreigners, and they are shouting loudly.I get the impression that there are a lot of people talking.And with a speaker.Maybe it's a cultural difference, but it's still too harsh.I thought so...The locker key was cut out for some reason.I'm really worried about security.I have to cut out the locker key.Is it?The entire interior of the building was also dark.There are no electrical outlets near the bedside, so you need to use an extension cord.I had no choice but to take it to bed.It was very inconvenient.Shampoo and conditioner are separateInstead, use rinse-in shampoo for your body.The soap was also very soapy.There is no makeup remover or face wash, and there is no hair dryer.I've only seen one.And when I stayed, there was only one.The hair dryer was broken.Is there another hair dryer at the front desk?When I asked, they said, "No."I had no choice but to dry it using the fan in the hallway.Japanese common sense doesn't seem to be very common.Also, the toilet and washroom in the morning are the worst.I had booked for 3 nights, but in various aspectsI couldn't stand it, so from the second night I went to another hotel.I went to the hotel.Amenity is one bath towel, and the restNothing. In-house wear and tissuesNo, and the slippers are not disposable either.Is it pest control in the hallway, in various places?It was there.I haven't actually seen insects, but if you're not good at it,I think it's better for your heart to avoid it.Because there are far more foreign guests than other hotelsYou should be careful about the blood-sucking pests that are being talked about.It wasn't in my room though.If you just stay for one night + really don't care about anythingWell... it was like that.The private capsule room is like a secret base.Speaking of fun, it's fun.But I can't even consider using it anymore.Even if it's not a private room, it's in another dormitory.is much better.I don't think it's suitable for many Japanese people.I really regret staying there because of the cheap price.I did.I just want my money back.The only good thing is the location.
