In brief

Strengths

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Noise can be an issue — Some guests mention street noise from outside and lively backpackers, which can make it hard to relax, especially in the compact capsules.
- Shared bathrooms need attention — While many find them clean, some guests note that the shared bathrooms could be cleaned more frequently during busy periods.
- Rooms are compact — The capsule format means small sleeping spaces, which may feel restrictive if you prefer more room or have large luggage.
- Limited kitchen access — Guests report that kitchen access is restricted, so self-catering is not really an option.

8Verified guest“The beds were comfortable and the curtains gave great privacy. Staff were super friendly and helped us book tours at good prices. Breakfast was simple but tasty, and the Wi-Fi was strong. The hostel was clean, even the bathrooms, and with multiple toilets I never queued long.”
8Verified guest“The location was brilliant, right next to the night market - better than anywhere I've stayed before. Also close to the centre and bus station. The bed was cosy, the air conditioning worked well, and there was an electronic key card and a work desk in the room. A bath in the clean bathroom was a real treat.”
8Verified guest“Exceptionally comfortable bed and a fantastic spot near the Old Quarter centre, the bus station and the night market. Right in the middle of the city. Good choice for breakfast too.”
8Verified guest“I had a lovely stay at Capsule Station. The location was ideal, close to the Old Quarter and the city's sights. My capsule was spacious and comfortable with plenty of room for my luggage. The staff were friendly and even let me store my bags after checkout, which made my travels much easier.”
8Verified guest“We got a warm welcome at Capsule Station and enjoyed a nice rooftop breakfast. The big bed was comfortable and we were glad to have a towel provided. The noise from the street and the compact room made it a bit hard to relax.”
8Verified guest“The hostel has a lively atmosphere, friendly staff and a great breakfast view. The shared bathrooms could do with more frequent cleaning, but the spacious beds with privacy curtains are a plus. Just be aware of noisy backpackers and limited kitchen access. A solid pick for budget travellers.”
