Great location, just a short walk from Nagano Station and easy to find. It's on the same road that leads to Zenkoji Temple. For a two-night stay this met my expectations. Facilities were clean and tidy. I also had the chance to dine in at their Mash Cafe - it was a nice, cozy ambiance and the food and drinks were delicious. Staff both at check-in counter and cafe were very friendly.

Fantastic stay. An easy walk from nagano station with many dining and shopping options in the area. Lockers were provided to store valuables and there was plenty of space under the beds to store larger bags. The rooms were spacious and the beds comfortable.

Great location and spacious pods/ beds. Each bed has an assigned locker large enough to store valuables. Loads of room under the beds for suitcases. Charging points in the pods. Nice bar area and friendly staff.

Great place for transients who need a cheap place to sleep but don’t need a big room. The “capsules” are very spacious - easy to sit up and read a book (or watch a movie on your smartphone). Dimensions are approximately 2.5m x 1m x 1m. Has one electric outlet. Shower rooms are separate but private with a locking door. The 3F lounge has a toaster oven and microwave plus a water kettle. Overall a good location next to paid parking and grocery store.

A great stay. Capsule hotel like. Very clean and quiet despite many pods. Some ppl don’t like the fact that the lounge isn’t available during the day. In my opinion, that space is part of the restaurant. So unless you’re purchasing from the restaurant, it makes sense that area is reserved for patrons only. There’s another lounge upstairs anyways for hostel guests. FYI no amenities provided like they do in some other places. The only weird thing was the sheets - the duvet was put inside a fitted bed sheets so most of it was exposed and during sleep, it comes out anyways. Maybe they ran out of flat sheets.

Security Concerns

The place has serious security issues. When I checked-in my bed was supposed to be ready but turned out that it had been used. It looks like anyone from outside can access the floor and follow someone else to enter the room, and I am not sure if they have sufficient security cameras; besides, the main entrance and room access codes seem to be fixed (as they are printed on a laminated card) so anyone who had been to the place would know the code. Between 22:00-08:00 there is no night staff so anyone can get in and stay the night. Out of caution I wanted to keep my luggage at the front desk but such service is not available. They have a nice public space on ground floor but they only allow people to eat in a small room with only two tables on 3rd floor and this is not enough space for all people at dinner time. They have ice machine but would not give any ice. They also would not keep your luggage after checkout, which is quite inconvenient. I hope the host can fix these problems.
