Pods were very unique and fun to try for short stay. I didn’t enjoy climbing them every time I needed something and also using communal sliders in the bathroom area was no no.

I like the idea of a space pod as my sleeping quarter. It is quite spacious for one person. Just wondering whether there is a two-person space pod in case I decide to bring my wife along in the future. The rooftop is also a good place to find some quiet n privacy. Enjoy so much my stay there.

We stayed for the experience of a space pod. But it is basically a plastic box in a hostel dorm. It was sleep able, the so called breakfast was no where. Toilet in the shower is a very dirty setup, go for a poo & pick up some waterborne disease off the floor. You wouldn't get away with this setup in a western country, the health department would be all over you. I think maybe it was a great set up originally but has been sold off to a lazy owner.

Some details they Must have mentioned here before and I would not have booked: 1- reception is only available from 11 am to 8:30 pm Singapore time. 2- they do not provide except one towel every two days for a single pod nor do they clean the pod regularly. I was about to take a bath at 1 am when I discovered there was no new towel inside my pod. When I whatsapped their customer service she said I did not tell them I need a towel that day so they assumed a towel every two days is okay lol. The next morning I ordered two towels and the whatsapp customer service told me I am only allowed to have one towel per single pod. Please do you assume I should use the same towel for two days for bath??? Also I got locked out of my room coz I forgot the key inside the capsule and since there was no reception that time i waited 40 minutes on the rooftop until they answered on whatsapp and guided me on how to open the pod. The price they take is way over the services they offer. Not having a physical receptionist 24/7 is very inconvenient. Also one romanian tourist was checking in at night and did not know his room number so I woke up hearing noises of his trials to open the pod, and it was not his fault coz they wrote him an unclear message about the instructions and of course no receptionist at that time to help.

Overall a good place to stay especially for the price. The Pod was a bit too warm for me and there is an annoying blue light that cannot be turned off but overall good for the price.

Like what most comments here, the mattress is indeed thin compared to other capsules we've been to (which were way more cheaper). Also the breakfast is just okay. Had better breakfast from other capsules for lower price. Not all toilets have bidet which is quite disappointing too. We're lucky to have the lower bunk. But every movement would really create squirky noise which we suspect might annoy the one staying at the higher bunk. Overall, the place is fancy and spacious.

Good with minor annoyances

Very clean and in good condition. Only minor annoyances: Not a lot of secure luggage storage space - the locker will fit most small suitcases and backpacks, but not big suitcases. Also a blue light was in the ventilator and that could not be turned off, it's a bit annoying to have a blue light shining on your head all night. Lighting in the capsules is fine, but the only "light" option for lighting has the light shining directly into your face on the pillow, which is not so convenient if you want only a slight bit of light. Mattress is very thin (5 cm?) and was uncomfortable at times but surprisingly my back doesn't hurt from it. They do give you 2 giant pillows for each person which is nice but a bit annoying because they take up a lot of space in a small capsule.

The place is basic, but clean, what you’d expect from a pod hotel. They offer toast and cereal for breakfast and have a lot of bars and cafes on walking distance. One bad thing is we used their laundry service and they messed up a couple of items (bleach on my black shirt... c’mon). Overall I say it’s good for a night or two.

Really enjoyed my stay there. I would definitely recommend only stay 3-4 days because living out of a capsule for a longer period would be miserable. The only major downsids to this place was that check-in wasn't til 3 pm and they only offered cereal and bread for breakfast, but eating breakfast on the rooftop definitely made up for it. The location was fairly central and the metro was only about a 5 min walk away. Highly recommended if you're looking for an affordable option in Singapore.
