This property is located right in CBD. It’s very clean and clients are quiet. I was given a top bunk and staff easily changed me to a lower bunk next day. Disco night on Friday downstairs was a bit noisy.

Loved the capsule. Was very private and clean. It has great little amenities like good lighting, mirror, charges, air con and reduces the noise which is the biggest issue in hotels.

Can’t beat the price. Nice and cozy. Much better than a dorm room in hostels. The beds are thin foam. Very uncomfortable beds. If they upgrade the mattresses it’s a perfect cheap simple place to stay in heart of cbd.

The dorms were clean, quiet and very tidy. Lockers a good size. Bathrooms quite old and damaged tiles etc. Overall quite a pleasant surprise for the price, however the mattress was so thin it was quite uncomfortable to try to sleep on. Ive had neck pain since. If my mattress had have been a bit thicker and comfortable, I would stay again.

The capsules were clean, quiet and close to the central CBD. The other reviewers were correct; the pods are noisy when people move around, but most folks realized this and kept moves to a minimum. The bathrooms were very clean and modern - these were great. Like the other reviewers, I echo the thin mattresses (these weren't comfortable), but if you are ok with sleeping on a stiff-type surface, then this place would be fine for you, Not much outside noise, but my stay was mid-week.

The pods are actually much bigger and spacious than expected so wouldn't worry if you're concerned about feeling cramped. It's a great concept however the pods are quite run down and don't feel very sturdy, when someone gets into one on the same block as you the whole thing shakes and the doors are very loud. My door also had tape on it which didn't give a great impression of sturdiness! However all other facilities are decent a great location
