Good hostel

The pod was very comfortable and had an air vent coming in which was great. I dont recommend the breakfast as it only had a couple of small pastries to choose from or yogurt or soup.

Nice solo travel spot for a quick stay. Pods were spacious and I’d personally recommend getting a room with a projector for some night watching before bed.

Devanhy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The millennials was a great stay and would return if I ever go back to Kyoto .
Naima, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great social stay

Really good social place to stay. Was expensive due to cherry blossom season though and not worth the amount it cost, but outside this season would be good value. Room clean and comfy, bed moves between sofa and bed using control which was fun, only issue is not much room at foot of bed when bed down, tight squeeze to get out of pod. Free tea coffee and hot choc nice and kitchen clean and free to use too
2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Perfect location & ideal if you need a place to crash. Super clean and lovely staff. A great capsule/hostel/cowork space hybrid. If all you need is a safe clean bed, it doesn't get any better.
Thomas, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Everything is perfect! Staff are very helpful! Especially thanks to Ayuki,Yura, and Arisa who help me found and kept my lost debit card!
