I am 52 and my son is 21 and we both enjoyed our stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful, each bed was private and the entire place was clean. We didn't ever have an issue getting in a shower or toilet, even with it being fully booked. It was close to the station and plenty around it for fun, convenience, or food. We would definitely stay there again.

Stay away

Horrible beds (you have to make your own bed), pods are hot and the washrooms were in horrible condition and dirty. Cool book space doesn’t make up for the rest.

The place was really cool and esthetic however the actually pods themselves were not comfortable and the cleanliness of the public bathroom wasn’t the greatest.

Unique hotel for a different experience. Love that it’s at least on a high level for a nice view of Shinjuku when looking through their big wide windows. Lots of artsy books to browse slowly while chilling & eating at the rest area. The cabin rooms are ok. Had to be extra careful not to make any knocks & bumps in there to avoid disturbing the others haha. I got a cabin which I need to climb up to. The handrail is kinda clunky with an exposed screw at the top. The ladder to climb up could be upgraded to a wider step for easy secure stepping for my foot. If you are not fit, make sure to request for a bottom bunk. Climbing up & down is a mini workout 😅 Morning breakfast is nice. For my 1st day, the lady who served me was nice & respectful. On 2nd day, the guy who served me was kinda moody & not that welcoming but the cereal he made for me is thankfully good 😊

It's very cozy and in a good location. Rooms are small and capsule-hotel style. Clean. Staff speaks english and is helpful. The street area below stays loud through the night.

Love the Book and Bed concept, staff warm, welcoming and efficient, for a hostel the bed cubbies are quiet and private with solid walls and double curtain, separate men and women bathroom and shower stalls thoroughly cleaned daily, easy luggage storage, cafe had nice offerings, nice places to read, work and windows to look out. Great location near Shinjuku station. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and look forward to returning!

Je n’ai pas l’habitude de souligner les défauts mais ce soir la ils m’ont plus marqué que d’habitude: - l’hôtel est globalement correct, la salle principale est chaleureuse et très belle, fidèle aux photos sur les réseaux sociaux qui l’ont fait connaître. Le tout est très conviviale, favorable aux échanges entre les résidents. - les pièces d’eau ne sont pas en très bonne était, quelques portes serviettes sont cassé, les douches petites et pas au niveau du reste de l’hôtel. - les cabines sont spacieuses, offrant le confort minimum et nécessaires. Ma capsule situé en hauteur a eu le défaut de laisser passer la lumière au plafond, ce qui n’était ps très optimal pour s’endormir. La ventilation un peu bruyante (et malheureusement des clients bruyant ce soir la ne savant pas éteindre un réveil à 5h30 du matin…) - le personnel est la plus grosse déception de ma soirée: principalement un jeune homme qui a passé la soirée a s’entraîner à chanter du rap, m’empêchant de passer la soirée tranquille (discuter avant 22h n’est pas un problème, après cette heure ci j’estime qu’il y a la pièce principale plus propice pour faire du bruit par rapport aux couloirs des chambres. Je vous souhaite néanmoins de réussir à percer un jour!). Malgré toutes ces petites critiques, l’hôtel reste néanmoins un lieu que je recommanderai le temps d’une nuit (avec le masque et les bouchons d’oreille) car enfin: le trouve le prix excessif face aux désagréments rencontrés ce soir la. J’en suis navré.
