But cosy for 2 tall Europeans
Very economical way of spending the night, on our tour of south east Asia.
I'm 6'3" and I fitted the bed.
Toilet and shower were clean.

There are pubs in the area and karaoke doesn’t end until 2 am. It is very noisy and believe me you won’t be able to sleep not until after 2 am!!!
There are also tiny red ants in the pods!
Very dusty in the pods.

Likes: close to MRT, close to two hawker centres, close to two Chinatown malls.
Dislikes: the pods are located above a bar so it is noisy. Can't sleep. The front door on the room keeps slamming. Other noisy guests in the room. The shower & toilet are all in one. Everything gets wet. Also very small.

It was good. Head to maxwell centre for good food :)
Very economic choice for budget tourists if you focus on all the activities in the day time and seek only a place to sleep. Yet there are plenty of facilities that could be enhanced.

Not super clean or super dirty. Sound travels but everyone tried to be quiet. They will only supply 1 card even if you are 2 people and you need the card to get into the facility and then into the room so the person in the pod will remain without electric or light while the second person has to use it somewhere else in the facility and for sure one person can't go out and leave the other one in the pod. Management seem distracted. Also a note for Expedia which is another USA company making the same mistake so many other Western companies make thinking there are no English speaking people using their service from Southeast Asia because all the emails and even sometimes the website will come up in the Thai language and it's difficult to figure out how to switch it to all English even though I'm signed in and you know my preferences.

Good value stay in excellent location!
Fantastic location in Chinatown - so close to the MRT station and the Chinatown markets, and walking distance to the marina! Pods are comfortable but not soundproof but the noise of the fan helps drown out other people in the room - however there’s a karaoke bar next door so it can be quite loud. Bedding had some stains on it and tissues were left in our pod from previous guests. The toilet and shower are in the same room so the toilet is often wet - overall it’s clean and shampoo and shower gel are provided. The dorm is air conditioned so really pleasant. The lockers provided don’t fit big bags so they have to be left out. Some perks are the free wifi and free cold drinking water/tea/coffee. The staff were very friendly and helpful!

We really enjoyed our stay. The bed is comfortable. The lights inside the pod are quite bright though. Also it was freezing in there. They had the air con blasting, so even under the blanket and wearing clothes, we were still cold. Please turn down the air con.
