Ξενοδοχεία με 2-Star σε Hokkaido, Japan

"I chose a room with shared bathroom facilities and a tatami mat. The toilet was very close by and clean, and the shower was decent too. It was snowing continuously, so I'd suggest they help wipe off luggage at the entrance; otherwise, it'd mess up the room when you come in. The air conditioning worked great, but the faucet in the room's sink needed a lot of force to turn off completely. The hotel was a bit hard to find; with all the snow, I couldn't see the sign. On the day I checked in, there were so many cars parked outside that I didn't even realize it was the hotel entrance. The front desk staff was excellent and very friendly. If you go out, you need to return your room key to the front desk."

"The location was great, only a 5-minute walk from Maruyama-koen Station. The room felt nice and was very clean. It had a kitchen with a large refrigerator, microwave, rice cooker, and electric stove. There were also two sinks, which was perfect for the four of us. Wi-Fi was available, and there's a supermarket nearby. However, upon arrival, there was a sign for the front desk on the 3rd floor, and when I got into the elevator, it wouldn't move without a 3-digit code. I didn't know about this, and I'm not sure if I was informed of it beforehand. It caused some hassle during check-in, which is self-service. I eventually had to call to complete the check-in process."

"Incredible value for money stay in the heart of Sapporo. I have never stayed in a capsule hotel before which made me hesitant to book this hotel, however I am so glad that I chose it. The location is unbeatable, in the very heart of Sapporo, in Susukino district. There is an endless amount of izakaya and restaurants on the doorstep of the hotel. The onsen and sauna was the best I have visited in Japan so far. I have heard the sauna is famous across Japan, and I can see why. It is kept impeccably clean and the entire facility is well maintained. The amenities such as unlimited towels, toothbrushes, razors and hair products are a great touch too. The capsule hotel itself was great, like the rest of the property, spotless clean and well kept. Despite being a capsule hotel, I heard no snoring for disturbance during the night. The breakfast was delicious and excellent value. Upon checkout, I requested to book again due to my great experience."

"I initially thought that staying in a hostel/capsule hotel like this would be a terrible experience, but it turned out to be surprisingly good. Of course, I booked it because it was cheap. During the peak season of the Snow Festival, it was significantly cheaper, even half the price of other regular hotels. So, even if the experience was bad, I could tolerate it, but it actually wasn't. Plus, I got to experience the local (northern) sauna culture, which was quite new for me, a southerner. First, let's talk about the location. It's a straight five-minute walk from Susukino Station, and there's also a city tram stop right outside, so transportation is very convenient. Personally, I recommend taking the airport bus because you don't have to drag your luggage so far. In Susukino, it's naturally convenient for dining and shopping. There's a convenience store just across the street downstairs, basically solving most of your needs. There are 4.5 floors of hotel accommodation, with over a hundred beds on each floor. When I went, it was the peak season of the Snow Festival, but the occupancy rate seemed to be only about half, so there weren't that many people near your bed. There might be occasional noise, but guests from all over the world are generally well-behaved and consciously control their volume during quiet hours. So, staying here is pretty much like a school dorm. If you can accept a school dorm, then this place should be fine too. After staying, I realized that this place is essentially a three-in-one: accommodation is capsule (hostel) + internet cafe. You buy a bed, and the public area provides basic entertainment like comics. Showering is in a Japanese public bathhouse, which also has hot spring pools and a sauna area. I recommend that those who haven't been before should learn about the customs and etiquette in advance. The dining area is similar to an izakaya, operating from evening until 1 AM, offering basic staple foods and some drinks. The overall facilities and services are quite comprehensive, and I didn't feel any inconvenience during my four or five-day stay. If you think the bed is expensive, there's a sneaky trick (prerequisite: you need to understand Japanese and the billing rules). You can use it like a Japanese public bathhouse, just like the locals do. Go in and select the 'day trip' (日帰り) option on the machine. Sometimes, the final bill will be cheaper than booking a bed. However, the downside is that you won't have a bed, and you'll have to find a place to spend the night in the dining area or public lounge on the 7th floor. If there are too many people, you might not find a place to rest. So, judge for yourselves. This trick is recommended for those who are more familiar with Japan. Before staying, I saw some reviews mentioning two concerns, and now I'll address them based on my actual experience: First, female staff passing through the changing area outside the bathhouse. I did encounter this two or three times. I guess the front desk and dining staff took the stairs to the dining area to save elevator waiting time. They also tried to keep their heads down and avoid looking, so I personally don't mind. If you do, then I suggest you consider not staying here. Second, the air conditioning is kept at 18-20 degrees Celsius (64-68°F), which was perfect for me. After all, it's below zero outdoors, and too large a temperature difference can be uncomfortable."

"Solo traveler-friendly! The front desk staff were all lovely, the place was super clean, and the location was excellent. You can basically walk to Susukino subway station, and the atmosphere was great."

"급하게 여행계획을 잡다보니 스스키노 중심쪽 숙소가 괜찮은데가 없었고 너무 비싸서 최대한 저렴한 방을 찾던 중 우연히 발견한 숙소였습니다. 리뷰가 너무 없어서 자세히 남겨봅니다. 삿포로역에서도 위쪽으로 조금 떨어져있어서(도보15분 정도) 위치는 별로였지만 기대를 안하고 가서인지 생각보다 괜찮았어요. 4-6시 사이에 체크인이라길래 시간 맞춰 갔더니 1층 부동산에서 관리자분이 방 번호랑 간단한 안내만 해주셨고 나머지는 셀프 체크인을 해야하는 방식이었는데. 큐알을 통해 여권사진 등 간단한 신상정보를 업로드해야 열쇠가 담긴 보관함의 비번을 알려주고 보관함의 열쇠를 꺼내 들어가는 식이었고, 저는 그 과정에서 오류가 조금 있어서 부동산 직원분의 도움을 받아야했기에;; 가급적이면 체크인 시간에 가는게 좋을 듯해서 이 점이 불편했던 것 같습니다. (숙소와 연락할 방법이 전화밖에 없는거 같고, 1층 부동산을 통해 안내받아야하는 거라 정해진 시간 이외에 체크인도 가능할지는 잘 모르겠네요) 이름은 호텔이지만 에어비앤비에 가까워요. 방은 최근에 리모델링을 한건지 사진에서 보던 것보다는 깔끔했고 탁상거울,전신거울,TV,전자레인지,냉장고,드라이기,에어컨,난방기 등이 구비되어 지내는데 부족함이 없었네요. 침대도 매트리스는 살짝 불편했지만 그정도면 잠깐 묵기에는 괜찮았고 오래된 가구 같지는 않아 깨끗했어요. 방도 생각보다 넓어서 친구랑 둘이 묵기에 좁은 느낌은 없었습니다. 일본 대부분 숙소가 그러하듯 화장실이 굉장히 작았는데 그래도 여긴 변기가 살짝 틀어져있어서 괜찮았고 깨끗했어요. 숙소 관련 규정(쓰레기 처리 등)이나 인근 상점 정보 등을 안내해주는 인쇄물 같은게 있어서 한번 읽어보는게 좋구요. 재활용 쓰레기를 철저히 분리해서 퇴실할때 버려야하는게 조금 번거롭긴한데 저희는 크게 상관없어서 괜찮았는데 이런게 조금 귀찮다 싶으면 호텔 가시는게 나을것 같네요. 저희 묵을 땐 옆방에 사람이 없어서 조용해서 방음이 잘되는지는 확인할 길은 없었지만 크게 시끄러웠던 기억은 없었어요. 정리해보자면 중심가에서 떨어진 위치, 셀프체크인과 셀프 뒷정리의 번거로움, 연박시 청소 없음, 수건 충당없음, 긴급시 직원과 연결제약이 있는 불편함이 있지만 그래도 저렴한 가격, 괜찮은 청결 컨디션을 고려하면 2일 정도 묵기엔 나쁘지 않았어요 참고로 엘베없는 3층건물이라 짐들고 오르내리해야하고, 변기가 잘못내리면 물이 계속 내려가서 래버 확인을 잘해줘야해요. 주방세면대와 전자레인지, 냉장고 있어서 저녁에 야식먹기에 편리했어요! 다음에 가게되면 위치때문에 또 묵기에는 힘들겠지만 저렴한 숙소 찾으시는 분들에겐 그나마 괜찮은 거 같아서 추천드릴게요!"

"We were a party of two, and the room was spacious with a very comfortable bed. The front desk was great, letting us check in half an hour early. The breakfast was delicious, and one of the staff members spoke Chinese. On the downside, there's no TV, so it's quiet enough to hear noise from the hallway, which means the soundproofing isn't great. Also, a sewage-like smell occasionally wafted from the bathroom drain."

"Its a great accommodation, small but cozy, has usb plugs near bed side. The best part is they have a restaurant which serves great curry! My fav is the pork with curry😍 Will definitely visit again!"

"The room is enough size for 1 person, 2 people may be too crowded, clean, the host responds quickly to questions."
