Amazing Internet Cafe private room with sleeping quarters coming out of the wall | GRAN CUSTOMA

TOKYO, Sep 04 (At JAPAN) - This time I stayed in the new wing of the Ueno branch of GRAN CUSTOMA, a hideaway internet cafÈ with sleeping bunks that come out of the wall inside the room!

It is a 5 minute walk from JR Ueno station in Ueno, Tokyo. There is also a convenience store in the same building, so it was a very comfortable internet cafe in terms of location.

Although it was not a women-only floor this time,there were completely private rooms with locks, so security was assured. also a large bathroom, which is different from regular Internet cafes, and also an all-you-can-eat curry service, which was fun.
