Pros:

Not a bad location if you want to be in china town.

Cons:

Not very interesting, to be honest, staff minimally polite. Capsules are beginning to show wear and tear. You get what you pay for. A one night stay is enough.

One of the staff, I can’t remember his name, maybe Islam or something, just picked a dislike toward me from minute one.
Pros:

The cube was an experiment that was good.

Cons:

Sharing of the toilets and the Muslim guy made my experience of Malaysia really horrible not only the property. The Chinese guy was just so easy. I don’t think I ll ever go back there as long as that guy is there.

Houston we have problem
Pros:

I was stay before and I prefered again but I left in second days, I was planned stay 10 days.
Location very well, for backpackers ideal location and ideal hostel. Employees are helpful and so kind , thank you.

Cons:

There should be signs informing guests that the tunnels are not soundproofed, that loud music, TV viewing, and phone calls are prohibited after certain hours, that jumping into the tunnels is forbidden, and that exiting the tunnels should be done quietly and respectfully. We were completely disappointed. The beds are worn out, have reached the end of their lifespan, are very uncomfortable, and it's very difficult to sleep.

Pros:

A ideia de ser uma decoração espacial é muito legal e é bem localizado, perto de uma 7eleven e de bons restaurantes.

Cons:

Infelizmente achamos uma pequena barata no quarto em uma das noites e era um quarto dividido em dois, então escutávamos tudo do quarto ao lado.

I’d say people should get a taste of this kind of a space, if they could create a private bathroom for each cube, that w
Pros:

The experience of the cube, it’s fun to be in this sort of place for the first time.

Cons:

Sharing of the toilets even though there wasn’t any issues and the water is amazing.
