This is my hotel room in Tokyo. It went for about $50/night. As you can see, it is nothing more than a little fort. Kind of like sleeping in a coffin. There is a nice TV in there. What else can you ask for?
The tall buildings in Tokyo. Had to take the typical tourist picture of them. There are probably some taller buildings, but after only 12 hours in the city, this was the best I could find.. on the way to the subway station.
So this is the subway station by my capsule hotel. It was described to us by one of the locals as the busiest subway station in the world with more than 2 million people coming and going each day. I believe it.. just look at all those signs AND they are in Japanese. It was a challenge figuring out where I needed to go.
Another shot from inside my "capsule" aka fort or coffin. That is the radio/alarm clock. What can't they fit into these little boxes?? It even had air conditioning.
This is me in my capsule after a couple of pints. I was quite comfortable in there, but it was a bit of a challenge climbing up to my capsule.
The view from outside. A small, but comfortable pillow awaits inside and there actually was a blanket though you can't see it right now. To the left and right is a small kind of drape you pull down when you are sleeping. It keeps out the light pretty well, but not the noise!
