Value for money.
Pros:

Some feelings of not being safe. Overall safety ok.

Cons:

The lounge area didn't have a quiet space to sit. Only could find this within the pods themselves. Toilets not cleaned daily.

Pros:

Own cubicle of space and nearby food and shops all within walking distance

Cons:

Sound proof is not that good inside the cubicle though, and the hassle to bring the card along everytime you got out from it even just to washroom, and the card will disconnect the power as well.

Pros:

For a short stay it was exactly what we needed as we were out all day. The Pods were surprisingly comfortable and majority of the guests understood respectable shared space areas. If you're after a value for money and happy to share common areas this is a unique stay.

Cons:

If you are very tall the Pod might not be a comfortable sleep.

Only one night.
Pros:

Pros
-location (cbd edge, walking distance to grocery/eateries)
-firm comfy bed
-easy check in and out
-secure lockers

Cons:

Cons
-can hear snores and sounds pretty clearly through the pods (plus fairly loud plastic/metal creaking when people climb in their pods)
-being 166cm, I fit without feet/head touching the pod, and didn’t feel claustrophobic, but I suspect a 180cm person would have to sleep sideways or lil more bent
-Luke warm shower was painful for such a cold day, I couldn’t wash my hair :(
-no parking (free on Saturday night and Sunday in the cbd streets though)
