On the miracle and eventful year of 2011, I finally get to visit Japan for the 7th time in 5 years in a row. This time for the very first time, I took Air Asia to Japan since the landing airport is at Haneda International Airport which makes it convenient for me. Since the only available flight from KLIA-LCCT only starts from afternoon, I arrived at Haneda International Airport at about 10pm Japan time. Due to night time arrival, access to train transportation to the place I'm supposed to go, Kanazawa Hakkei, my Professor recommended me to stay in a nearby hotel. Yes! That's my very first capsule hotel experience at the Skyspa Yokohama.
There are two types of capsule which are the side and front entrance
My capsule room which is from the front entrance. The room is not so spacious. Amenities includes LCD TV and radio with some adult vids channel |
What's special in this capsule hotel is the oxygen treatment for better sleeping quality
Huge public area with individual TV screens whereby you can get to choose your own movie channel.
Summary of Review:
Available room type: Capsule type hotel
Price: Starting from approx. 3000 yen (cheaper price if reservation is made through their website)
Location: Great location at Yokohama Station
Amenities: No free wifi but a small common are for internet surfing, common room for rest, free water but no free drinks such as coffee and tea.
Open bath (銭湯): Great spacious open bath area. This place is highly recommended for those who wanted an open bath relaxation. Bathing materials (towels, shower cream, shavers etc are provided free of charge)
Fun: Staff are polite and friendly but too formal and no socializing common place.
This capsule is suitable for business-like person who wish for an affordable stay with quiet atmosphere and relaxation. Overall rating, I would like to give a 4 out 5 due to the great open bath area.
