Great place to stay, the staff service was so great. There is a supermarket across the street, Nijojo Castle is a 10 min walk away as well as the subway station and bus stations all along the road.

You need to bear in mind that this is a capsule hotel designed for people who normally only stay a night or two. There’s a transient clientele who have their own needs such as late arrivals and very early starts which can be disruptive for your sleeping. The hotel is well placed for sightseeing and access to transport.

The staff is very friendly, and the place is spotlessly clean. The only downside is that it's a bit far from the main train station.

Out of all the places that I stayed during my trip to Japan, this one definitely stands out! It was the cleanest, most organized and just perfect in every way possible. I will recommend this place to everyone I know that plans on going to Japan someday.

Stayed just one night but all the areas were nice. Clean and big comfortable cabin. They also provide free towel. All the areas were nice and clean. And the location is pretty good with a near subway station.

Sometimes the rooms were too cold or too hot. Very dry. It would be nice to have a shelf in the capsule, or some hooks. Very nice spa, very clean.

I had a pleasant stay at First Cabin Nijojo. The location was excellent for transportation, making it convenient to explore the area. However, it felt somewhat crowded compared to my experience at First Cabin Roppongi in Tokyo, which I personally preferred. Despite this, the overall experience at First Cabin Nijojo was positive. I appreciate the service provided during my stay.

Nice capsule hotel. The onsen is not tattoo friendly, so know that going in. If youre a bigger/taller person you may want to spend a little extra for the larger rooms

Very clean. Three levels of rooms. The pods are fine and the size didn’t bother me. The mattresses were very firm though.

Dryers don't function well. Took literally 30 hours to complete my laundry, it destroyed some of my white clothes due to oversteaming, and after 14 hours they still weren't dry and needed to be hung overnight. Not even the staff could dry them properly and it ruined some new clothes I had just bought here.
