Our family really enjoyed the 8 pod private room we rented for the night. It was such a great fun experience for this.

Wallace

The downstairs lobby/hangout/bar area was quite nice and great for meeting people. Bed was comfy and very private with the curtain and pod-like structure! Lockers with pin-code locks were convenient as I didn’t have a padlock with me.
