Great experience for the kids!
Loved out stay, a mom with 2 young kids. The kids loved the capsule hotel theme and I loved that we were still able to have our own room and the tatami bed with space to leave all our stuff comfortably. We had a long vacation in Japan, with many hotels with much higher star-ratings but the Cocts was our kids favourite! Highly recommended!

Booked a “Tent Room” for a family. I never expected that this would be a tent room in as literal as possible. The room was a horrible Astro turf floor and two tents on either side of the room. This matched the pictures and seemed like a fun idea. The problem was no mattresses or bedding, at all. Instead, there were ancient camping pads and twenty year old sleeping bags with a couple of extra blankets. No futon mattress, not even air mattresses. Just camp pads that had been compressed to a sheet of paper.
We requested some kind of actual mattress and did receive one flat mattress for the five of us. No one slept and the Astro turf was scratchy and bad.
Only book this room if you are used to sleeping directly on wooden floors or if you bring your own bedding like you are literally camping.
The TV was a projection screen that didn’t work and the WiFi was useless.
The staff was pleasant and the common areas were fine.

Cute hostel, clean and well maintained. Staff speak English and are very friendly. Bathrooms are pristine and spacious. Do note that a towel is not included and will be a (small) additional charge to rent. The rooms are not soundproof and some other guests would do well to know that…

There was a slight miscommunication in regards to their closing time for check ins due to a website error but they were really kind and considerate about our situation and got us checked in as smooth as possible.

Bad service counter, the light intensity in the cabin too strong that hurts the eyes, not much hot water to take a shower, the dining room is dangerous because it has 2-3 floor levels: a child and I almost fell down.

Messy due to other residents. Amenities are just older too and more worn I guess.

What I love the most about this place is the staff there. It really feels like being at home or in a college dorm with a bunch of close friends and family. Most of the staff are young adults, super friendly and kind and well versed in many languages, particularly English.
The area is very close to Asakusabashi station (Chuo-Sobu line) and a short walk to Akihabara Electric town.
If I didn't have a flight already set. I wouldve have exteneded my stay in Japan just to hang out there.

We received a warm welcome and enjoyed our stay. The 5-10 min walk to the stations weren't bad and then you can be in the heart of akihabara. Plus, there are some nearby options for eating.
Watch your head entering the cafe if you are tall-- my two sons are 6'4" and they both nearly bonked their heads a few times. :o)
Rooms were basic, but comfortable and I'd definitely recommend!

The property was awesome! It required a bit of a walk to most public transportation, but was quiet as a result. Make sure to bring your own towels, and the breakfast is just one donut so you may need more fuel for a full day of walking around the city.

Pleasantly surprised
I stayed 6 nights in a triple room. It was small but enough for us. This small hotel is clean and well organized. Only downside is that it's little too far from train stations. You can take one of 4 different lines though.
Bring your own towl, they charge 300 yen. And you'd better use a coin laundry shop a few blocks away. The hotel has only one small washer.
Overall, it's good place and I am coming back. Staffs are friendly. The restaurant is nice with reasonable price.

This was both my first time in Japan and my first time in this kind of stay. I had heard about the pod hotels of Japan and was interested in trying one. I stayed at this location for six nights and I really enjoyed it! The staff was all friendly and the place was pretty clean and relaxed. I had no issues whatsoever. Will recommend
