Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The pod was spotless. It was different not being able to see out once you shut the door but it was private. Perhaps the only thing I would have liked was for someone to show me my pod and a few words of explanation rather than just give me the keys. Otherwise the staff were very helpful and the communial areas were spotless.

Overall, it was very nice, but there were a lot of people in the common areas at night. Apparently, many of the guests from the restaurant next door were directed to the hotel's common space. Not recommended for those who want to relax in the common space.

Unique stay. Didnt have any issues. Kinda novelty. Mattress not too comfy though and with so many in the pods, its got that locker room kinda smell. But very easy to navigate. Clear. No sweat. Quick and easy kind of place.
