Looking for a capsule hotel?

Developed in Japan, these cheap “pod” hotels are a novelty for any traveler. With rows of small single bed enclosed capsules, accommodations are basic and intended to be overnight. There's separate storage for luggage and gender-separate communal bathrooms. Some capsule hotels also have a sentō – a Japanese bath house, usually for male guests only.

    We had a quiet spacious Premium King room, which had a huge comfortable bed and views towards the river. The large bathroom was great and had plenty of free toiletries. The hotel location was convenient with many restaurants nearby. All the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. At check-in, Chanel, kindly gave us some lovely sparkling wine to take to our room as it was my birthday celebration. Thank you so much.

    There is no breakfast service in freehand i suppose. But they have bar in the lobby which is quite convenient for young people to hang out or grab a drink. Next to Freehand, there is a CVS which is very convenient to get bottle water or snack to eat. All in all, Freehand's location is near downtown and very cheap. I really recommend it.

    The location was very convenient, the staff was friendly and helpful. The room was not fancy, pretty small, but still decent and worked for what I needed.

    Location is unbeatable. It´s my second time in this hotel and I would definitely return.Very comfortable bed and pillows, bathroom roomy and with great towels. Toiletries reasonable.Friendly staff. The room was spacious and very quiet. Very convenient for persons with moving disabilities. A vast offer of restaurants in the area which felt very safe. It would be great to add room service, but the store at the lobby is helpful.

    Beautiful situated and close to trams and the lake. Friendly staff and vibrant feel. But also bit worn down. Beds are to soft and uncomfy. It was more a budget family place than a hostel with a lot of small children. Not a bad thing but not really what we were expecting. Breakfast was humble but can get you on your way. No real healthy options. But there is a community kitchen and fridge to store some cheese or other things for breakkie Chicago is expensive and this place was on the cheaper side so you cant expect golden halls

    The staff was very nice. The staff, Axel, who is fluent in Japanese, was very polite and friendly. This was the best staff I have ever stayed in a hotel. Close to the downtown core and cheap parking nearby.
