Do-c Shibuya Ebisu

good location, interesting experience

you have to check-out every morning ever if you stay 2-3 nights

I needed to find a place for one night, I came across this place and it was very good:) The facility was very clean, beds are comfortable, and they have private bathrooms. On top of that, they also give you a place to store your luggage (both big and small), and they give you a pajama set to sleep in. The staff is also very friendly, but their English is limited. At least for the two people that were working when I stayed. I would also like to mention the location of this place is very convienent. It's about a 2-3 minute walk to the station. I definitely would recommend this place if you're looking for a one night stay.

The layout, the facilities and the cleanliness were excellent.

The 10am checkout everyday even if you are staying more than a day. I dont understand why sheets and towels have to be washed everyday. This is wasting resources. So do-C should improve their green practices.

The sauna on the top floor was just great benefit to this accommodation. I loved it. In general it was a lovely and clean accommodation. I loved their pillows - they were soft on one side and filled with little balls on the other. Never seen such pillows and I loved the side with little balls. They have an extra room for luggage next to the room with beds - which is such a great benefit - in so many accommodations there is just no space for luggage.

The elevator is a little bit disaster. It’s quite small so especially during busy times it was taking such a long time till it arrived and I was fine because I lived on upper floors but sometimes on lower floors it was just too full so people had to stand there and wait for next round. I would gladly take the stairs instead (additional exercise is always great) but the stairs looks like are there only for emergency purposes which is a pity. Also I’m quite tall (181cm) so when I was sleeping sometimes I touched the bottom of the bed and felt a little guilty that I might be doing noise when people were asleep. But the bed vas very comfortable and I had enough space to have a great rest when 181cm. Not sure how a 190cm person would feel though.

The location is great, next to the train station served by JR. I think it's better than most hostels.

Very basic and crowded but overpriced. Capsules are too small for our North European bodies. We wanted to try and we did for one night.

Everything was great, very well organised, easy check-in. Very friendly and helpful staff. Pyjamas, towels, slippers, toothbrush and toothpaste are provided in a washbag; plus body wash, shampoo and conditioner in the excellent showers. There is plenty of space in the washroom/vanity area, with hairdryers and spare sockets at each basin. The capsules had a USB port, mains socket, a light, extractor fan and mirror. We stayed 2 nights and didn't realise that we couldn't access the rooms or lockers between 10am and 2pm between the 2 nights. So you must be organised and take with you everything you need for a day out. We were able to keep our luggage there safely during this time, and after checkout the next day.

The only small criticism, is the other guests, who do not all adhere to the silence at night time in the dorms.

First off, the price. It's also very near the Ebisu station (1 station after Shibuya.) Has plenty of restaurants around it. A good place start for people who want to try capsule hotels. I like the minimalist aesthetic of the hotel. And the staff were helpful and courteous.

The walkway in the locker room could've been a bit wider. I also hope to use the stairs because the elevator is so small. But since the price is cheap, it is quite forgivable. Just don't expect 3-5 star hotel service and you should be ok.

Cheap, cheerful, clean. Great location, bed comfy, cleaning wash in showers really nice.

I understand staff need to clean/change bed as short stays are probably a quick turnaround. I stayed 2 nights. I was allowed to leave my backpack in locker, but absolutely no-one can stay after 10am, and no returns between 2pm. Not even to get luggage. 2nd night was to be near transport for my flight 11pm, not being allowed to stop like many allow a little longer was a pain.

The location was amazing - close enough to the fun parts of Tokyo, such as Shibuya and Shinjuku, but there was still some distance, so the area was quieter. The place also seemed less touristy so that you could see many locals. There was an abundance of trendy and hipster cafes, bars, and restaurants, as well as it being extremely close to the Ebisu train station.

This is a place for solo travelers. From 10 am to 2 pm, the hotel is being cleaned, and you cannot access your room and lockers.

The staff are super friendly, there are foreigners on staff and they were able to flex between Japanese and English flawlessly. The amenity bag was replete and the sauna was great!

Having to check out every day is a little inconvenient. Check out is at 10AM and clean up of my floor started at about 9:40 which made me feel rushed in an unpleasant way. You can leave all of your luggage and everything there, your bed doesn't change so don't worry about that!
