Cons:

Le quartier craint (vol, histoire louche), les douches étaient sales (pleins de taches noires à l’intérieur), taches de sang sur les poignées des portes, capsules fissurées, pas assez de place pour les valises…

Great experience!
Pros:

The location is amazing, the staff is warm and friendly, and the facilities are comfortable.

Cons:

The hotel closes from 11am until 3pm, they literally tell you that you HAVE to leave the hotel and can’t come back until after that time. I know it’s done to clean, but there was a day when I wasn’t feeling so well and I couldn’t lay down on my bed or shower because of this.

Cons:

This was the single most inconvenient place I stayed during the entirety of my trip. First, immediately upon my arrival I was verbally attacked by at least two staff members at once, demanding I remove my shoes. I didn't mind removing my shoes, but I did not enjoy the attack. Second, My shoes, once removed, were locked away in one spot, my backpack in another, my larger travel bag in yet another spot, and the capsule I slept in was somewhere else again. In short, my belongings and I were distributed across four different locations on three different floors of the building. Furthermore, the larger travel bag was not secured in the room it was in, anyone could have wandered in and rifled through it if they wished.

It was alright. I would not stay there again though.
Pros:

The public washing facilities were nice. However, note that there are no private washing facilities, so if you don't want to shower or bathe with random dudes, this place is probably not for you.

Cons:

THEY KICK YOU OUT AT 11AM EVERY DAY. Annoying AF. When I am tired and hungover, I want to be able to rest in the bed I paid for.... I don't want to be kicked out into a typhoon and have to lie half dead in the streets for 4 hours before being given the privilege of being allowed to go back to bed.

Also, the lockers are on the reception floor and the lifts are really slow.

Pros:

God atmosfære og trygt i kvinneetasjen. Kraftig røyklukt og mange ulike personligheter ved herreetasjene. Vi kom som familie med en datter og en sønn. Det var ikke ok for sønnen å være i herreetasjen, men dameetasjen hadde hyggelig klientell.

Cons:

Røyklukt, bruk av rusmidler blant beboere i herreetasjen.

残念でした。
Pros:

綺麗に掃除もしっかりされていました。

Cons:

女性用にシャワーしかない事は書いてなく、お風呂の写真があったので、ここを選んだのですがそうでなかったら違うとこを選んでました。

女性の方はシャワーしかない事は書いておいてほしいです。

2度と泊まる事はないかと思いました。
Cons:

エレベーターの乗り換えとロッカー室などなどが迷路で‼️
夜中に地震が有り後から考えたら‼️
本当の地震があったらお客さんは混乱し
パニックに落ちるかと感じました。
