Sapporo Hostels

Here got everything you need to rest and sleep. Public bath, Onsen, and sauna. And space for relaxation like Manga room, game room. Bed is comfortable enough to sleep, but the locker is a bit small. Cannot fit large luggage (28 inches). Overall is good and the location is great. I went out to see ice sculpture in just 5 mins walk.

The location is super convenient, with a 7-Eleven right downstairs. The elevators are separated for men and women, and you need a key card to go up. The second floor has a restaurant and a lounge area, and the third floor has very clean bathrooms. My floor, the sixth, also had a restroom. The bed was quite large, but there was a hair on the sheets – not sure if they weren't changed or if there was another reason. I was too tired from my business trip to bother asking about it, so I just slept. Overall, it was still good, not noisy, and I was able to get some sleep.

You can find this hostel by typing ”theatel” into Google Maps, and the navigation is pretty accurate. It's located on the third floor of a building with two entrances. One entrance has ”F-45” written on it, and there's a floor directory next to it (with the hostel's name listed on the 3rd-floor section). The other entrance has a huge 'egg' shaped sculpture in front of it. Near this egg sculpture, you can see the famous landmark beer billboard (featuring an old foreign man's face). You can also see the hostel's name when you enter the building from behind the egg sculpture. Take the elevator to the third floor, and after exiting, turn right to find the front desk. Sometimes the front desk is unattended, but there's a tablet nearby with a QR code. Just scan it with your phone's camera to self-check-in (you'll need to enter a four-digit reservation code). The female-only section has a code-locked door (I received the code on my phone during self-check-in, and also in the email I provided when I made the reservation). After entering the code, there are two more doors: one leads to the accommodation area (my capsule bed was very clean and soft, came with two hangers, a bath towel, a blackout curtain at the entrance, a power outlet by the headboard, an overhead storage cabinet, a box of tissues, and a pair of indoor slippers at the foot of the bed). The other door leads to the washroom area (which I thought was cleverly designed). The innermost part has several shower stalls + changing areas, all equipped with shower gel and shampoo. Outside of that, there are a few coin-operated washing machines, and further out, two rows of sinks. There are stools under the sinks, and hand towels and hairdryers on top. Next to the sinks, in a separate area, are several toilets. The entire washroom area was very clean, and I actually found the toilet paper quality to be quite good. Perhaps influenced by the widely held belief about 'quiet Japanese society,' the entire hostel was very quiet. I booked and paid in advance through an online platform, so I didn't have to pay anything extra from check-in to check-out. On the wall above the foot of my capsule bed, there was a 'check-in guide' (with the Wi-Fi name and password, and a check-out QR code). You need to check out before 10 AM by scanning the code and confirming. I was very satisfied with my stay.

Suitable for solo travelers, only a few days are enough. Check-in time is 4 PM. Check-out is 10 AM. Everyone has to leave because they turn off the lights. There's an unlimited coffee machine, a vending machine, laundry facilities, dryers, and shared showers. The showers are partitioned into blocks with curtains for privacy. For me, one time is enough.

Grandpa's hotel is very comfortable! Clean and tidy, I feel very safe. ～ My object said that I really want to doraemon's home hahaha. The grandfather is very good. We went back too late on the day of check-in. I originally told my grandfather that it was 11 o'clock to come back to check in and I went back at 1 o'clock. Grandpa was still waiting for us. I was touched. The grandfather was really good. I introduced us to the room so late. In short, the experience is super good! ! I came and went in a hurry. I didn’t take any photos. I just put two water in it. Haha. The first one seems to be the entry rules. I don’t remember it. You can learn from it. ～
