Great little capsule hostel right in the heart of Shinjuku. Really loved the book library (even if most if not all was Japanese) and the staff were so friendly. Good lattes too! As someone told me there, it’s a hostel so don’t expect too much personal space but you definitely get enough here. Would love to be back.

Everything was great. Superb atmosphere. No complaints.. just the toilet needed a repair. The water bidet in the toilet stopped working after the first day of my stay and wasn’t fixed for the next 4 days..

The main shared area of the hostel is very stylish, with various interesting books to read, and is fully air conditioned. There is 24 hour service so even in the middle of the night someone will be at the counter- there is also a cafe that’s run next to the check-in area, but even if you’re staying at the hostel you’ll need to pay for cafe items. You can get a change of sheets and towel daily if you want. You get a small electronic lock box in your capsule. The bedding is honestly very thin and not very comfortable, but the atmosphere, convenient location, and value make it worth it

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Very unique stay but would not do again.I was drawn in by the novelty of this property and it is pretty cool but not practical when there are so many other affordable options around that might offer a cleaner more comfortable stay. It's my understanding you can pay to come up to enjoy the cafe and books without staying. Which I would highly recommend if your a book lover.

Great location for the price... but very dirty!
For the price is was a great value. However the bathrooms are very dirty. The benches by the windows are disgustingly dirty. The whole place needs a good cleaning.

Really cool place, loved the vibe. Beds relatively comfy and quiet. Easy access from Shinjuku station and in a great area for food, shopping and activities/sightseeing. Capsules get really hot as they aren’t air conditioned but that’s really the only thing I would fault.

I stayed here with a friend. We loved the aesthetic and the service. Additionally, we enjoyed the breakfast options. However, the beds were not comfortable and I noticed trash was in our luggage storage cubby.

Gorgeous interiors and perfect location. If you're a light sleeper I'd choose another option since the bed pods are essentially in the common area. The shared bathrooms and amenities were adequate but I wouldn't want to be there for a whole week.

The vibe of the hostel is ideal for a book-lover. Although most of the books are in Japanese, which as a tourist who don't know Japanese find difficult to read one, you can still see a general theme through the book choices. It can be seen that they had really pay effort in creating an environment where you can 'stay with books'. Staffs are very helpful as well.

Novel idea capsule bed between bookshelves. Certainly not for weak of heart or claustrophobic. But fun for students saving money.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The location is good if you’re in Tokyo for the night life. The Book and Bed Cafe is cute but the hostel is not great. The majority of the hostel area is just plain plywood, the mattresses are so thin that when laying on my side my hip could feel the plywood beneath, and the sleeping pods were SO hot. The bathrooms were pretty dirty. Compared to the Osaka counterpart, this hostel leaves much to be desired.

Lovely little capsule hostel
Went in May. Bunk was warm but not unbearable, although had no need for the quilt. I found the mattress quite comfortable, and although the compartment was small I was able to move around inside comfortably. Noise does travel easily between adjacent compartments for those easily disturbed. I fear that on one heavy-drinking night I may have been the snoring disturbance, so bear this in mind. Showers were great. Staff were highly professional with a great level of English and I loved the breakfast sandwiches. It felt a lot quieter than most European hostels but it feels like a different crowd. I didn't take advantage of the book aspect but there seemed to be a very reasonable Emglish language selection in addition to Japanese.

The only real problem is the matt is too thin. I slept on it for 5 nights and my thighs were so sore it bothered me to walk. Other than the Matt everything was fair to good especially for the price.
