Don’t bother! One horrible, dirty place! Extremely disappointed.
Pros:

Staff were nice and location excellent.

Cons:

Shared bathroom facilities are HORRENDOUS! I’ve come home to bites all over my body also from the tiny roasting bunk pod.

Pros:

It was very well located in Manhattan. The rooftop was the best part - it's huge and we worked from up there for a few days.

Cons:

The room is incredibly small, especially for two (even the private room)

Localização
Pros:

A localização é excelente e o atendimento dos funcionários foi muito bom.

Cons:

O quarto não estava limpo adequadamente. A proposta do POD é ser um quarto compacto, contudo, a disposição da cama dificultava dormir sem deixar o travesseiro cair. Além disso, o ar condicionado do meu quarto estragou e, embora a equipe tenha realizada a troca de forma eficiente, o equipamento substituto era barulhento, estava com cheiro ruim e tirou a liberdade de fechar a janela.
