"The accommodation is newly fitted out and the pods are purpose-built and of high quality. Staff members very friendly and helpful. Be aware that everything about this accommodation, including entry to the building, relies on a pass with a QR Code downloaded to your phone. My only complaint is that their booking software is totally out of control. For one booking you will be inundated with what seems like dozens of messages, most of them duplications."
