Noise & sleep
Noise is a significant issue, with loud lockers in the sleeping area and general lack of soundproofing in the pods, leading to guests being easily disturbed by others.
“The lockers are in the sleeping area and are pretty loud, therefore you wake up easily if someone comes in late and needs to put stuff in. That really is not a good solution.”
“Ok so it's a capsule hotel, so yes, you can hear everyone moving and rolling over in their capsule bed; so if any noise bothers you, why are you staying in a hostel????don't complain about it on your reviews, just get a hotel.”
“The pods have no soundproofing so be prepared to be woken by other guests if they aren’t quiet.”
Pod comfort
Guests frequently report thin and uncomfortable mattresses, issues with capsules not closing properly leading to light leakage, and problems with temperature control inside the pods, often being too hot.
“The Mattresses are thin and uncomfortable, I have been in capsule hotels that had comfy ones, so it is not because of the capsules.”
“Also the capsules don't close properly, so at night you will have plenty of light coming in, bring a sleeping mask if you cant sleep with some light.”
“The pods were too hot. The air cond needs to be able to get inside the capsules to get the temp down to 23. Mine was at 29.”
Privacy
While the cubicles are described as private and spacious, some guests note that the capsule doors do not close properly, allowing light in, and can be flimsy.
“The cubicle is private and spacious for sleeping and leisure activities”

“Don't have a charger 🔌 port”
