    I stayed in the pods, and the hostel was quite noisy. So, if you prefer quiet, I recommend bringing earplugs. It was a bit tricky to control the water temperature in the shower.

    It was clean , nice option for the night

    Finding the entrance of building was hard for me. Putting a sign could prevent confusion. In the website of booking it was written , i booked one single room although it was a single bed in pods. So i was so disappointed you should be more clear. And one time supporter answer fast but the other time too late

    The hostel was very clean, there were towels for every body. Kitchen and shower were good.

    Random people without booking could easily access the property via reading the keypad entry code once from someone. When I've arrived, one of the staff members told me to don't be alarmed when the police is coming. Someone, who shouldn't be here, closed himself in one of the absent rooms and was sleeping there... Otherwise there are no staff on premises only for the cleaning and setup process, so there is no real screening who can access the hostel.

    It was well equiped for a hostel. The shower cabin was quite large. Gave off a fancy dormitory vibe. There where freely accessable lockers to use, with physical keys.

    Not a dislike, but just a small suggestion: it would be great to have a hair dryer in the bathroom :)

    My sleeping pod was comfy, clean and big enough to be comfortable. The hostel provides sheets and towels (not always the case!), the kitchen is nice and spacious, and in general the space is very nice. It's a bit of a different experience going to a hostel that doesn't have staff or a common space for socialisation, but it was a pleasant experience! The staff was very quick to respond to any question, including when, as soon as I arrived, I couldn't find the luggage room; when I called the number, they were able to very quickly give me clarification. Same when I contacted them through the app. The location is good, with plenty of transport options (metro, tram and buses) to reach all the major tourist attractions, and with nice resaurants and bars in the area. It's also quite easy to get to the aiport. All in all, a good experience!

    i mean, for a last resort, for the money, its okay.

    the noise, and the fact that the pods were not properly venitlated, even tough i had a blind, i could not sleep with it closed, as it was too hot.

    The accomodation was good, except the fact that there were no doors between all the halways and the pods themselves, so there was a lot of noise, all night from people closing doors, and in the morning at 8 am somebody was playing the quitar ????

    stay away until renovations have been made
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller

    • Stayed 2 nights

    the ageing facilities are in dire need of renovations, the mattresses are saggy, the faucets in the washrooms and the fridges are constantly leaking water, every space that can accommodate spat out chewing gum has been graced with such by generations of guests there's very few windows as the hostel is located in the middle section of an office complex and there's only ac in the washroom, so people keep the door open to control the temperature in the building which gets very hot in the summer and get some fresh air in, however this also leads to the air becoming muggy the two showers are mouldy and very hard to use (there's nowhere dry to put your clothes, so you're essentially forced to step into the public area to dry yourself off and dress) the walls are paper thin, so there's a constant din of people having phone conversations in their rooms throughout the nights the safes are very small and there's far fewer than there are rooms the "ladders" to the upper beds are splintery untreated wood and the "steps" are prone to rotate as you step on them also there's only one toilet for up to thirty guests, so prepare to queue in the morning and the evening and bring your own toilet paper

    the location is alright if you're gonna use public transport

    Avoid pods if possible. It's always scolding hot in them because there is no ventilation, you build up co2 pretty quick. My pod was full of someone elses hair, probably beard hair, who knows. Ladder for the pod is super tight, for people with bad legs, or being tipsy, or whatever is a big risk of falling and hurting yourself. Also the pod is located literally in the hallway, you can hear the whole hostel, any part whether it's the toilet, bathroom or other rooms you can hear it and anyone can easily get to you while you're sleeping. Not to mention that the whole hostel is protected by a fixed code which most likely never changes and anyone can get in from the street, probably what was happening during my stay, as there was people with all their stuff sleeping in the kitchen. This hostel is poorly managed, the "administration" is remote and they stopped responding to my concerns after assuring me that "everything is alright", when the cleaning staff is clearly doing a poor job. There are many more bad things about this place, but if you need a place to stay, avoid pods at all costs, there are better hostels for the same price.

    For the price it's passable.

    Access to the building was difficult. Communication with the remote managers was extremely slow and frustrating. They did not answer the phone.

    Good location, fair price.

    I wish there’s some shower gel and shampoo in the shower. They were all empty. The hot and colt faucets are a bit hard to use. Only one socket with 2 USB-A sockets.

    Clean, has all the needed things
