Liked: Amenities
The staff were courteous and helpful. The capsule was large enough to sit up in if you're 5'7 or less. It was clean, sheets & towels were provided. The beds were hard and the showers would intermittently go ice cold. Not ok when you are in the middle of your shower & all covered with soap. There needs to be a way to deal with inconsiderate guests. There were several extra noisy guests, but no-one to handle them. It's probably ok when compared to other hostels, but it didn't work well for us.

Liked: Cleanliness
Very central place. Quite minimalistic compared to other cabin hotels in japan. Toilets and sinks are at the same floor as the beds, therefore it can be quite noisy at peak times. Enough storage space. Some staff could not speak english, but was able to communicate via Smartphone translator. Overall good place to stay.

“🌟🤩 Outstanding Stay at Helio Hostel! 🏠☕ My visit to Sapporo for the Snow Festival was made unforgettable thanks to this amazing find! Helio Hostel, perched above a charming coffee shop, is a dream come true for travelers 🧳🌨️. Nestled in the heart of the city, it’s surrounded by shopping 🛍️, delightful food options 🍜, lively music 🎶, and entertainment, all within a stone’s throw from a serene park and convenient public transport 🚆🌳. The ease of hopping on and off the train was a huge plus 🚂👍, especially for exploring this beautiful area. Strolling through a nearby mall, I was amazed by the array of local treats - from sweet delicacies to cheese and milk products 🍰🧀 - a true feast for the senses! The hostel itself is a gem 💎🛌. Spacious and well-equipped, it boasts an incredible staff - who even guided me to a local restaurant for some authentic culinary delights 🍣🚶‍♀️. The jazz music playing for two nights straight was soul-stirring and heartwarming 🎷🎵, adding to the already vibrant atmosphere of this treasure trove. For those concerned about public transportation, fear not! 🚎👜 There are several options to reach the hostel with luggage. While I initially opted for luggage delivery, I ended up taking my luggage with me due to the snowy weather ❄️🧳. Discovering an airport limousine bus stop just around the corner was a lifesaver 🚌✨. For just $15, you can enjoy a comfortable and secure ride from Sapporo Airport straight to Hotel ABest,

交通位置很棒,去坐車、轉車都方便,所有需要買的牌子、商品、百貨、超市附近都有,想吃的餐點也都找得到,喜歡city walk 的人光這區就可以走很久了,晚上回旅店還能再出去晃晃,會有一種旅程不浪費時間的感覺。 淋浴間跟睡覺的地方分開覺得很棒,也有另分一區專門給女生使用也覺得很不錯,但希望房間內就不要放吹風機了,雖然立意良善,但有些人不懂尊重,半夜不在公共區域吹頭髮,回房間使用實在偏擾民。 不過煮飯的鍋具就希望能稍微篩選,畢竟有些可能因為不當使用或時間消耗的關係,使用起來不太方便了,希望能定時檢查做汰換,但整體環境依然很推!

不是未來科技感的膠囊,所以空間感覺比較大一些,女性樓層還可以直接走樓梯下去空用空間。 也有冰箱可以冰食物、烤箱微博爐跟小廚房可使用,也有提供冷水,要換毛巾再去一樓櫃檯領取,不提供牙刷牙膏跟拖鞋需購買。 附近也有便利商店跟居酒屋,離其中一個車站入口也算近很方便、推薦!

立地は最高でした。地下鉄からもすぐで慣れない雪道を歩かずに済みました。一階はカフェになっていてそこでチェックインするが、宿泊には一度外に出て道に面したエレベーターに乗らないといけず、雪が吹雪いてエレベーター内に入ってきたり、水が拭いていないとエレベーター内が滑りやすくなっていたのが難点。雪の時期じゃ無ければ問題ないと思う。
