4/10 Fair

Booked a female only dorm which was on the fourth floor. There was no prior communication that the lift was undergoing maintenance so therefore carrying 40kg of luggage up spiral stairs was horrific. The staff was kind enough on arrival but no help offered or apology for lack of notice. The WiFi also does not work on the fourth floor, but is working in the lobby/communal area. House keepers came to clean vacant capsules at 8am - which I found to be very early given some people are resting after a long flight. In addition the workers who are maintaining the lift and other work were drilling away loudly between 7am-3pm. Again, it can’t be helped if these things need doing but prior notice would’ve helped me to book somewhere more suitable. Noise outside on busy street is manageable and not too loud, and the curtain for each pod is good for privacy. My biggest concern is that on my morning of departure, I woke up at 2.30am and had prepared to leave, when a man entered at 3.10am. In a female dorm? How he had gained access I cannot be sure, but this removes the purpose of women’s safety and the reason by booking a non male facility. NO

I had a great stay in the capsule hotel. The capsule itself was very comfortable, with the built-in fan and shelf and hooks and charging PowerPoint. The shared facilities like the kitchen and bathrooms were very efficient and comfortable too. The building is iconic! And the messages around the building from the Staff are also iconic. All in all I thoroughly recommend this friendly and clean hotel.

Just the rooms with beds stifflingly warm. Fan’s in capsule had no effect. I enjoyed 3 night stay as Staff & everything else 10/10. But this asked about AC so not good as result.

Overall a good hotel. Excellent location and very clean. Kitchen is poorly equipped - one spoon, 2 glasses, 2 cheap plastic bowls. There didn’t seem to be much hot water in the evening sometimes. I would stay here again as it’s very cheap and well located. There is a comfortable lobby area and pretty decent wifi. Lots of showers and toilets plus laundry room.

Apart from the capsule being a little thin (can hear noises outside), the accommodation was tidy and comfortable. Excellent staff service and located right at next to Sydney Town Hall. Highly recommended.

Loved the capsule. Was very private and clean. It has great little amenities like good lighting, mirror, charges, air con and reduces the noise which is the biggest issue in hotels.

Great place to stay if heading out for a few drink

Always a great stay at the capsule Hotel, i Live 2 hours out of the CBD and works out great if i want to catch up with mates and go out drinking, 5 mins walk from Town Hall Station, walk to everything including markets, little Japan with great food, lots of great bars within walking distance, also has a great little Japanese dart bar with Kiren on tap! The bathroom etc is shared but always clean, bedding and capsules clean, if your heading out in the CBD cant get anything more central for the money, cant recommend enough

This property is located right in CBD. It’s very clean and clients are quiet. I was given a top bunk and staff easily changed me to a lower bunk next day. Disco night on Friday downstairs was a bit noisy.

One of the better hostels I’ve stayed at. The other reviews about the bed being a bit firm are indeed true. Only two toilet for entire floor but luckily I went at a time when it wasn’t too busy. Staff was very friendly and I do like how the card key could be used for locker storage. Property was pretty clean and overall not bad!
