Same. I don't mind a small sleeping area and the building itself is quite nice. Plus that hot spring they offer is something you'd maybe only find in a $300+ a night hotel in the US. And at the bar of one of those hotels you'd spend more than $14 for a couple drinks they give you for free.
Thanks for the video. I stayed there for 5 days and it was a great way to get over the jet lag. I could take a hot bath or steam at any time and the free curry rice in the mornings was tasty. The lockers were secure and the other guys were quiet so I could sleep during the day.
Even in a group of 3 or 4 you could probably get that many cabins and definitely that many capsules for as much as much or less than one low quality US motel room in my area (which is good for about 2-4 people depending on how comfortable you are with sharing a bed). Plus with all the free stuff you get it's probably a much better experience. Not to mention this place is actually clean and modern while most bad motels look like bedbug infested crack houses.
it’s definitely a compelling alternative to standard budget lodgings, and yes the fact that it is kept meticulously clean is absolutely critical in my opinion
I see! That would make sense because this hotel company literally has a chain of hotels (apart from this one) that is called "Bali An". Thank you for the insight!
The curtains and the cube's doors are probably Bali's handcrafts too. It is an island of my country. I guess the owner of the hotel has a correlation with Bali.
Someone kindly share this with L.A.'s new mayor, Karen Bass. Build one of these for the homeless. This should be a thing in every town where they exist.
As someone originally born and raised in LA I have thought about this as well. However, you cant discount the fact that there are virtually zero fentanyl addicts in Japan.
Unfortunately, the difference in culture would see it destroyed in a week. There is a reason nobody worries about putting locks on the screen door in Japan.
I am 5 foot 11, and there was room to spare so I think 6 feet should be no problem. maybe beyond 6 foot 5 inches or so one might begin to find it a bit uncomfortable
I believe this is one of the main reasons why these kind of hotels cannot have individual locks. Every capsule hotel will have its own standards of safety but in general Japan takes safety and security very seriously. I do, however, understand the sentiment. It would not be fun to be in this facility if God forbid a fire were to break out.
I could totally live here for 14 dollars a night.
Where was the bathroom for your sleeping area?
@@elenaarman-tang7811 There are shared bathrooms on every floor
@@Albietraveling oh ok 👍

Is it better to book in person or online ?
How did you get the $14 a night price ?

I love ur commentary in each video, it brings me the laughter I need for the day!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
The handcraft, the frog ashtray statue, and the yellow umbrellas are Balinese style. Indonesia.

Very clean! No homeless.
Yes indeed. Very clean is how Japan likes to operate

It would be destroyed in a few nights unfortunately.

Yeah right, when donkeys fly. They'd have it trashed in 2 or 3 days.
If only the San Francisco mayor had the program for homeless and people with low income housing to help
Do they have an individual shower room ?
You're absolutely right.lts the culture of the country Japan isn't gonna build something beautiful, to be torn up in a week .
Japanese culture is not perfect but I appreciate it more and more as I get older
It's the culture 😤
Absolutely
I'm six feet tall. Would I fit comfortably in their beds?

@@Albietraveling Thank you!
And if something happens to said building.... you have no quick exit.

I can't believe there is actually information in English.
Japan tries it’s best when it comes to English
When I went to Japan, everything important had English translation as well. And most people there speak some English. If not, pictures always work lol
How much in Singapore dollars??
Looks like it would be about around 50 Singaporean dollars for a standard capsule and 70 Singaporean dollars for a cabin room.
it is nicer and probably cheaper than you home you are living in guys, just admit it, and see how backwards your life is
Not sure how to respond to this but I appreciate the comment!
