Capsules at Resol Poshtel
As noted above, the Resol Poshtel (who thinks of these names?!) is a modern capsule hotel, meaning that it accepts both male and female guests, unlike traditional capsule hotels that are mostly male-only.
Capsule interior
The capsules here actually have some style, which is a nice change from standard capsule hotels, where capsules are utilitarian and often quite depressing. Sure, they’re pretty cramped, but this is a capsule hotel! And, you can always escape the capsule and hang out in the nice lobby lounge area, which is great for meeting other travelers.

Given the location, which is as close as you can possibly get to Senso-ji Temple, and the reasonable rates, this is a good choice for budget travelers in Asakusa.
