The capsule concept is great, Iâve use it many times in Japan. But it still need some refinements. I tried Zedwell hotel in July and December and the air conditioning in the box was too warm. A space is also missing for a cabin luggage (in the box or in a locker). In the bathroom, the design can also be improved. There is no space for a wash bag around the sinks (the only place is under the hand dryer!). This is a new hotel and many showers and toilets are already broken. I hope the hope will update design to make it a great experience.
Every time I stay, the pods are uncomfortably warm throughout the night, even in January (the fan makes little difference). I have also never found a tap in any of the bathrooms that dispenses cold (instead of very hot) water, meaning there is no way to get drinkable water or brush your teeth without using hot water. I heard another customer also complaining about the lack of any cold water options (but they were advised to buy cold water from a shop outside).
It was really clean and safe. Staff is very friendly and helpful. If youâre not claustrophobic and looking for budget options, then its a perfect stay.
First time staying here, have hostelled before. Capsules were spacious and had good security. Despite being busy, I wasnât conscious of lots of noise when within the capsule. Toilets were clean, as were the showers, however the shower itself had a poor flow and went all over the place. Capsules also got quite hot during the night. Nowhere to fill a water bottle. For the price, I would stay again.
