“Cheap and simple but dorm in the hallway so no privacy and a lot of noise”
The location was easily accessible from the port just 5 minutes by bus, the beds were comfortable and big for a capsule hotel

“Peaceful, comfortable and great local village walks”
This was a friendly quirky place and very comfortable. We had two private rooms. There's a sake bar with small plates right next door which was excellent (and a good Italian round the corner). The owner and staff were very responsive (and kind when we broke something)

“It was convinient for the price we paid, compaired to other hotels in the island. It work out fine!”
The exclusive room was good and with good space. Two shared bathrooms worked ok for the amount of guests. The beds were confortable and the cleaning was satisfying. The shower space was also ok.

“Good location, but poor overall stay”

It is not staffed & the signing in process to get access to my room was difficult and time consuming. I had to make a call in the end, but that person was efficient & helpful.

The location was decent, close enough to a nice cafe and near the bus stop for the port. It was entirely self service as well, which was nice

“Good for one night to explore Naoshima.”
The location is great. Right next to Honmura port. Our room was spacious, with 2 twin beds, and we had a great view to the port. The check in system with a code worked well. The kitchen is useful.
