Main equipment of capsule hotel

There are free toiletries provided when you get up early in the morning. The toothbrush here is very interesting. You can brush your mouth full of foam without squeezing in toothpaste. In addition to the showers in the public bathroom, there are also artificial hot springs. Since there is an ultrasonic device installed at the bottom of the pool, the surging water can beat your legs, back, and massage your whole body, which is really a relief.

After bathing, men can use free disposable razors, and women also have a variety of free skin care products. Although the wooden comb is not disposable, it is divided into two baskets, used and unused. Staff clean it every day and then put it in a UV light box for disinfection.

There are multiple vending machines in the public lounge, selling cigarettes, juice, coffee, instant noodles, batteries, ice cream, hamburgers, etc. There are free magazines next to the sofa, and those who love fun can watch TV with everyone. If you feel tired, just throw a few coins into the automatic massage chair and you can enjoy a 20-minute electric massage. Some capsule hotels have reading rooms where business people can use computers to work, and the free broadband wireless network is very fast. The capsule hotel hidden in the office building is mainly aimed at office workers who work overtime at night and can't catch the last train, allowing them to rest and catch up on sleep. Different from traditional capsule hotels, which have a dark and old stereotype, this kind of capsule hotel is very different. With black and white as the basic color scheme, everything is modern and modern. The hotel is thoughtfully designed with tourists and female guests in mind. Not only are the toilets and floors separated for men and women, but even the elevators are separated for men and women, so that female guests can stay comfortably and securely.

You don’t have to worry about sleeping uncomfortable when you enter a small capsule. The operator uses high-end bedding to give you a good night’s sleep. Capsule hotels have escaped the shadow of recession and opened up unlimited business opportunities with a new look. Go up to the second floor and come to the most distinctive part of the entire hotel, which is also the sleeping area where the name "capsule hotel" comes from. A very creative space composition. Once you enter the sleeping area, the entire sleeping area is divided into many rooms, arranged in English alphabetical order. On each of the two walls you enter, there are more than 20 "capsule holes" densely packed and neatly distributed like a honeycomb. Each hole is only 1 meter long and wide, and only about one person deep. This small space can only accommodate one person sitting and lying down. The space is the guest’s bedroom. (On the third floor there is a "big cave" for men and women to sleep together, and for three people to sleep together. The shape is similar, but the area is larger).

Each capsule hole has the same number as the locker hand card. "Look, does it look like a space capsule? Is there any living space for future people in a science fiction world?" "New York Times" reporter Tian Hiroko Fuchiko (transliteration) recently came to the "Capsule Hotel Shinjuku 510" where Nakanishi Jun is staying for an interview. Looking around, there are two neat rows of cubicles on both sides of the hotel corridor, like train sleepers. The grid shop is divided into upper and lower floors. The depth of each grid is no more than 2 meters, and the width and height are no more than 1.5 meters.

The grids are completely sealed. A person can lie down and sit at most in the cubicle, and cannot stand up at all. There is no door to the cubicle, only a thin screen for cover.

Each cubicle is only equipped with a lamp, a few clothes hangers, a thin blanket, a pillow and a small TV. You can only use headphones to listen to the sound on the small TV, because the sound insulation effect of the grid is poor, and even a slight cough can be heard by the "neighbors".

The space is small, and the "ants" have to pile up all their daily necessities in the cubicle. The entire hotel has a unified restaurant and public bathrooms. The corridors are full of cigarette smoke and cigarette butts are everywhere.

Nakanishi Jun told reporters: "This is just a place to crawl in and sleep. You have to get used to it." He said that he only brought two suits because he had no wardrobe at all.
