1 Night 1980 Hostel Tokyo in Tokyo

If you are travelling alone in Tokyo all day and just searching for a cheap place to sleep and leave all your luggage, this is in my opinion the best option.
You walk 10min. from Iriya station (subway), which is 1 station from Ueno Station.
I stayed 5 days and I was really grateful for the student discount. They also accept foreign student cards. The check-in was really easy and the people at the reception were really nice. The locker room is quite huge, so you can leave your luggage there while travelling. The Wi-Fi was also good and you can change your bedsheets every day if you want to. As a woman you get a amenity bag every day which includes toothbrush, shampoo, conditioner, body shampoo, hair brush, and a sanitary napkin. In order to help the environment I recommend only asking for the necessary stuff like shampoo for the following days in case you are staying more than one night. The toilets and the shower rooms are quite clean, I don’t know what people who are complaining here are expecting for this price. There is also a microwave, hot water and a vending machine which was really helpful.

All in one it was a positively surprising visit and if you are not afraid to sleep in a floor (women only) with curtain only beds I totally recommend this hotel.

Went there in 2018 and 2019. Prices are really cheap despite being located in a quite calm place close to the subway.
Hope I'll be able to stay there again if I have the opportunity to come back to Japan.

Awesome place to sleep, sanitary comfort with a good staff. It's inexpensive and you can put your luggage at the reception if you're too early there. The only problem might be the location because it is somehow far away from the next train station, if you have big luggages it is a hard task to arrive but it isn't impossible of course. You have your own private capsule room, the rooftop is nice and you learn also other travellers. I'd go there again

Stayed for 7 nights. The bed in the superior rooms felt like sleeping on a rock. But I did not travel to Japan to sleep!
Every capsule has their own private large wardrobe style storage, not a locker, much larger than a locker, a size which I have not yet seen in any other capsule hotel.
The staff is really nice. Some of the staff speak good English. I loved my stay. If you want to go to Japan to explore and spend every waking second outside, then this hotel is perfect! There is also a really nice common rooftop chill area with vending machines.
