Capsule Hotel Flaru

Although I arrived much later than planned, check-in was available until 2:00 AM and the bath could be used until 2:30 AM. Check-out at 4:00 AM was also possible, which really helped. In the morning, it was less than a 10-minute walk to Higashi-Chiba Station, so I was able to leave as scheduled.

A convenient location near Chiba Station. While a nearby capsule hotel has raised its rates, I really appreciate Fural’s pricing under 4,000 yen. The study room is also helpful (the desks are a bit small, but more than sufficient). Outside food is allowed. This time I checked out early in the morning, and the front desk handled it smoothly with no waiting. The in-house slippers (disposable/free) are a big plus. The bath mat is almost always dry, which feels great (thanks to good guest etiquette and regular replacement). Personally, I’d be happy if hand sanitizer spray were placed at a few more high-touch points. Overall, very reasonable!
