Do-c Ebisu♡

Nice Concept, But Facilities Could Be Better Designed

8.0

Please note that there is no elevator to reach the reception. The reception is located on the second floor, so you need to use the stairs. Inside the building, there is only one elevator, which can be slow and may require some patience. The property is clearly separated by gender: men’s floors are 3F–6F, and women’s floors are 7F–9F, which is well organized. One important point is that even if you stay for multiple nights, you are required to check in and check out every day, so that your capsule can be cleaned daily. You can keep your belongings in the same locker throughout your stay, but you still need to clear your capsule space and clean up items such as cups. Do not leave personal belongings inside your capsule. This system might sound reasonable, but in practice, I found it quite time-consuming and not very efficient. That said, you do receive a fresh towel and new pajamas every time you check in, which is a nice benefit. There is a public space on the second floor next to the reception, but it is very basic. There is no water dispenser, no complimentary drinks, and no fridge. Don't expect kitchen function. You cannot store your own food either, so do not expect any food or drink services. There are lots of eateries and convenience store in the area, though. On the positive side, there are power sockets available, so you can comfortably use a laptop without worrying about the battery. On the shower/sauna floor, there are only three private shower booths. Strangely, there are also many shower cubicles with no curtains. Although they are separated by partitions, the showers still feel completely public. The cubicles also do not have hooks, so it is unclear where to hang your towel. I love sauna, and I chose this hotel mainly for the sauna facilities and the great location in Ebisu. However, overall, the layout and design could be improved. It would be much better if each floor had a proper public space and a slightly larger powder room. It would also be more convenient to have a shoe locker area closer to the reception.

Best Value in Ebisu

8.0

Do-C is the best value and location in Tokyo, as Ebisu is a crossroads to great nightlife and travel in and out of Tokyo. With a sauna and secure locker environment, it's not luxury but just a place to crash, and sweat out the day. Staff helpful, and stay amenities offered at desk. Floors and saunas are separated by gender, but WiFi and 2F area support interaction. No elevator to 2F, so guests who are mobility-impaired likely impossible. I have stayed here about 10 times.

Great Capsule Hotel in Tokyo

8.0

The capsule room's are clean, the reception situated at second floor, there is waiting room while waiting check in or check out or just relax. The capsule for man and woman is separate. There is also sauna ,locker facilities. This is one of the great capsule hotel with affordable price. Shower room and sauna for man at third floor and for woman at sixth floor. Situated at Shibuya Ebisu, 3 minutes walk from Shibuya Ebisu station then take west exit. Their staff's very responsive and helpful. I would recommend this capsule hotel for backpackers or budget traveler.
