    Bombarded with eMails so at the end you are confused and don't get - in my example - the PIN for the luggage store. Even got eMails aboth the check-in the day after I checked out already- ridiculous No idea how to get out of this place if there is a fire.... Rather expensive with EUR 110 per night...

    Cleanliness Location good Cool kitchen Wlan working

    I didn't like how expensive it was, I have stayed in city centers at far lesser prices, and the comfort there was pretty close to this. I feel the privacy was the only added bonus. I also did not like how there was only one WC between so many people. It's very inconvenient.

    The location is great and that you have your own capsule, it's very private and comfortable!

    “Top-floor walk-up studio with a fun local view. Great location in new-town just off Rose Street.”

    • Stayed 3 nights

    The room can get VERY warm when you're away. Sunlight hits the blinds and warms up the room. We needed to open the big sliding glass door to the patio in order to cool the place down. No big deal. No bugs and not much noise, so not too much of a problem. It's top floor and a walk-up so that means about 50 stairs to climb. We knew that going in so no biggy. The stools and only table in the room were terribly uncomfortable and the table much too small to really be usable. We actually ended up taking the umbrella off the outdoor table and bringing that table and its outdoor-furniture chairs inside so that we had a usable table to eat and and play cards on. The tall metal stools and narrow table provided were simply insufficient. I would still stay here again knowing all these things.

    Location was perfect. We had the penthouse loft so our experience will be different for the POD hostel people. Everything was as expected. We had a nice little studio apartment with an outdoor balcony area all to ourselves. Nice. Everything worked and the bed was comfy and the shower was hot.

    Only one toilet per floor is ridiculous and door doesn't open properly. I had to quéue and go up 3 floors to find a free toilet. The noise outside was very noisy from 5am all the way through to 8am glass smashing bins being emptied. I think the pin code was ok although my phone almost died and I would have been totally stuck without someone there. I think almost £50 for a dorm room is very expensive

    Comfy bed and clean very well located

    Very noisy, because of construction work but not only. The main problem is the door of the room which slams each time someone get in or out. Difficult to sleep well even if the bed is very comfortable !

    Very good location, easy to reach with the tram from the airport.

    There was no space inside the room to move around at all once all 3 people were inside.

    Self check in was super easy and we were able to store our luggage the next day after check out for free.

    Too many codes and locks- found this overwhelming- there was no one to ask for help when locks didn’t work. There are phone numbers to call but when things go wrong late at night this is awkward.

    There were no staff on site. If you don’t have access to emails you cannot get into the hotel. My emails came late and so I had to call reception, no one answered. Lucky there happened to be a cleaner who let me in. We were not told that renovations would be happening. Windows were being installed in the adjoining room until almost 10pm. There was mess left in the hallway (pictured) which I had to sweep aside myself to avoid cutting my feet. During my stay, two men were locked out of their rooms due to forgetting a code and we called each number and no one answered for over 15 minutes. One man mentioned how it was good it wasn’t an emergency at the hotel. Doors slam loudly and rooms get very hot. Overall, not value for money.

    Good location, good common areas

    - it was extremly hot inside the pod, and no fresh air - I had trouble sleeping because of that - 1 toilet is not enough for a whole floor

    - the location was amazing, very close to everything - the room and other areas were clean - equipt kitchen available - earplugs provided (the street under the window was quite noisy)
