Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Wi-Fi can be unreliable in rooms — One guest noted the Wi-Fi didn't work in the rooms, though the lobby had good connectivity. This may be an issue if you need to work from your bed.
  • Reception is on the third floor — The hostel is on the 3rd floor of Liberty Shinsaibashi, and a few guests found it a bit hard to locate initially due to limited street-level signage.
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:59, so late-night arrivals after midnight are not accommodated.
  • No pets allowed — The hostel does not allow pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you're traveling with an animal.

9.1Verified guest

“I had a near-perfect stay. The staff were attentive and even remembered my request for a lower bunk. The capsule itself was cozy and comfortable, and I appreciated the mini foldable table. Wi-Fi didn't work in the rooms, but the lobby had good connectivity. The free coffee was a nice perk, and bathroom facilities were ample with no lines. The location in Shinsaibashi was excellent, with easy access to food and nightlife. Cons: almost perfect.”

9.1Verified guest

“Recently stayed in a great location, close to all the action and just a few minutes from the subway. It was a bit hard to find at first due to lack of clear markings, but the staff were very kind and helpful. The premises were kept very clean and the value for money was good. I stayed in the women's dormitory with 6 capsules, including larger and regular-sized ones. The common area had a nice table with free coffee and tea, plus tourist information. A great place for a night or so, and I'd definitely stay again.”
