Pros:

I was playing an 8ball tournament 2 blocks away and location ment it was close

Cons:

Both sides of me were snoring. A Japanese fella was cooking food it stunk the whole area out then the next morning burn some kinda of fish it was putrid. Showers are small and no room to get dressed. Toilets are to close the Japanese person was in toilet next to me and it was bad. I'm not racist or anything but yeah that food was putrid.then there was some guy laying all over the tables standing on the benches wrapping himself in the curtains in the kitchen definatly high on ice was no security to contact.

It’s basically an overpriced backpackers for tourists
Pros:

The location, price & cleanliness

Cons:

It was so noisy we couldn’t sleep. We left at 11:30pm & slept in the car. A man was drinking alcohol on the floors outside the pods watching porn on his phone.

Affordable option for a city stay - does the job for what it needs to be
Pros:

Great location
Relatively clean
Affordable option
Warm sleeping areas
Safe and secure accom

Cons:

Very noisy getting in and out of pods.
Very noise using lockers, which were also quite temperamental so you would have to take a few turns trying to unlock and lock them.
Female showers a bit rundown and could do with a sprucing.
There was a very drunk guy when we were there who seemed to drink and stay up the whole night laid out on the corner seats in the kitchen area, it was quite uncomfortable.
It did the job for our two nights there but I don't think I could have stayed longer.

Price and location are great, a little noisy throughout the night and I found it a bit unclean in the bathrooms
Pros:

Price

Cons:

Showers were small and a little unclean for me to use, maybe if I had a pair of thongs to wear.
