Women’s Only Shinjuku: I love Shinjuku, I’ve stayed in Shinjuku before, but found it a bit odd this hotel is surrounded by men’s gay bars, just had no idea before I came so it’s about a 10minute walk to the cool Shinjuku fun stuff. At night I saw a few drag queens holding flyers (awesome), and one morning I did stumble across two middle aged Japanese men making out on my way to the nearby subway station (nice/good for you guys?) There was only one vending machine and it was out of order while I was there, with convenience stores at almost every corner I didn’t love it being a few blocks/3-5minute walk to the closest Lawson/FamilyMart. I stayed here one week, I then stayed a week at the co-ed Suidobashi 9h capsule hotel mid-trip for a change of pace and found the vibe a lot more welcoming. l would never stay here again/at a female only 9h capsule hotel unless I was with a female friend/friends and it was dirt cheap ($15-$20/night) AND I had no other option.
