Sleeping in a cubby

On Tuesday I moved accommodations to another hostel called the Ace Inn. The Ace Inn was different than other hostels I’ve stayed in while here. It basically boasted the necessities: bed, shower, wireless, and location. It was just two stops off of Shinjuku Station, which is one of the main hubs for getting around. Two stops from Shinjuku Station sits the neighborhood Shibuya, where I ended up spending quite a bit of time.

The beds are like cubbies. Stacked two high, the interiors have a clean wood-look veneer to them, a small light, a shelf, and an electrical outlet. Throughout the 10 story high building is wireless internet, although at times shaky, mostly very good. Most capsule hotels in Tokyo do not allow women to check in, although I did find one that had a floor for women-only, and an attached spa. It, however, was a bit expensive for what it was. These had the feel of a capsule, but a bit less compartmentalized.

If only they had drink service in the cubbies...
