I compared sleeping in a hostel vs a capsule hotel in Tokyo and the capsule was WAY better for half the price
Stayed at a 8-bed dorm in Shinjuku for 3 nights at like $40 a night and got NO sleep. People coming in drunk at 2am, snoring, lights on. Then tried a capsule place near Asakusa for $22 a night. Dark, quiet, own little space with a TV and controls. Felt like a spaceship. Total game changer if you're solo and just need a bed. Anyone else ditch hostels for capsules in Asia?
