helpful staff clean setup organised space difficult access noise issue suffocating atmosphere

The staff was genuinely helpful. The setup is modern and clean, AND the space felt safe and well organised. There WAS a nice mix of guests of different ages and backgrounds. I was grateful for the comfortable bed.

I had a top pod. It wasn't the easiest to access.

amazing pod experience, i'm already planning my return!!!

perfect location convenient kitchen

The location was perfect, especially with the train station so close!!! i felt safe because of the 24-hour reception and the super clean cleanliness really stood out to me. i loved having access to a convenient kitchen area with a fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee machine, and kettle. Everything i needed was right there!

The only thing that could be better is noise insulation. It was a bit noisy when other guests were moving around or using the facilities late at night.

basic stay with some design flaws

poor soundproofing worn mattress

the location was ideal , just a short walk from the train and bus station.

the pods were poorly soundproofed , so i heard every little noise. the electric blinds were also quite loud each time someone opened or closed theirs. additionally , the provided mattress was thin and worn out .
