Ever stayed at a Japanese capsule hotel?

I did so in Tokyo last month, partly because it's a cheap alternative to a hotel, and partly for the unique experience.

Here's a picture slideshow.

Anyone else done so, what did you think?

 

No.I had never go to this hotel.

 

Oops?!
If i get to Japan the i would might to have visit there

 

Once. It was nice, but then again I'm a freak. I was worried about suffocating until I turned on the air conditioning, heh.

 

Hey that looks really cool!

Was it really very cheap? I did not see any mention of price?

Something like that with communal kitchens/bathrooms with private/locked cold food storage for fresh/frozen stuff would really be cool for dorms/low income workers?

 

Not yet. but it sure looks like fun and I would love to try it someday.

 

not enough time... (as they have enough space)
