Highly recommended capsule hotel at Wakayama station, very good price - value.
Pros:

Amazing capsule hotel, very clean, friendly staff, very close to Wakayama station, most spacious capsule I ever stayed. Very good price for the service provided.

Cons:

Unusual location at 6th floor of Granvia Hotel, wasn’t easy to find for a first time visitor. Would definitely come back when in Wakayama.

Pros:

One of the best hostels I stayed in. Not only in Japan but in the world. Your own pyjamas in a hostel? Just wow. Everything was top-notch clean. Location could not be more perfect, especially if you travel by train. Luggage storage before check-in and after check-out for free.

Cons:

I would appreciate a classic shower too. There are only these onsen-type stool showers.

可以寄放行李在一樓另一家飯店的櫃檯。
Pros:

雖然是青年旅館的形式，但空間相對來說比較大比較舒適。有附大浴場可以泡澡，還不錯。地點離車站很近，很便利。
