Cleanest of total 6 hostel/capsules I've stayed. The property is well maintained. Nothing falling apart or looks dirty. Large sitting lounge can sit 8-10 people comfortably. Most of my 13 nites stay I see only mostly 2-4 people in there. Sometimes there is a larger group. Large CLEAN & COMFORTABLE sitting lounge, not a large cafeteria w/just tables/chairs, promotes interaction amongst people. That is what happened there. The street is a high-end(ish) Rodeo Drive -lite like street. VERY NICE w/cafes, pastry shops, Japanese & western style restaurants, bars, grocery stores, high end jewlers, fashion boutiques, fine wine shops, etc. everything you need, even Brooks Brothers mens clothing store. Few blocks to convenient stores, Don Quixote mega store, largest Chinatown in Japan & the metro. It's surrounded by residential neighborhoods. Yokohama itself is more quiet and fewer tourists. The Japanese people in Yokohama are more progressive and less "stiff" than typical of Osaka/Kyoto/Tokyo due to it's 1859 opening of Yokohama as a trading port in Japan. The western influence can be seen in it's people and architechure. I'm not referring to modern city office buildings. It's the neighborhood smaller buildings. I see more PDA amongst even older Japanese couples! Their fashion sense are NOT confirming to the rest of the population. They exercise their individule flairs. It's very refreshing. I also saw lots of babies and dogs. They love their dogs here.
