That`s a relief - Your first post says "a 7 day trip to akihabara", so it is easy to misinterpret your meaning.
Personally, I`d look around at youth hostels instead of capsule hotels.
Despite the image of being cheap, they really aren`t that much. They usually have great baths, but you can almost always find a real room at a cheapy business hotel for the same amount... Or a room at a youth hostel for even cheaper.
There are lockers at capsule hotels, but in general they are small and will not hold a regular sized suitcase. You`ll have to check it at the desk which can be a real pain.
Think of them more as last resort types of lodging. They have a near monopoly on middle of the night sudden check-ins, etc, so can be very crappy but still cost as much as a regular hotel room.
