Would not book again

Beautiful view in daytime from the 5th floor. Lighting inside the room terrible though so really not pleasant after sun down (one of the lights not working on top of that). The bed is quite high of the ground. The shower is awful. The great thing about this place is the location. Next time I will pick a hotel for the same price but a few blocks away.

Affordable stay

The hostel was really affordable which is the only reason I got it. It was accessible from the airport, but I got lost on the way back. They didn’t respond to any of messages or calls to ask if they had 24/7 services because we were going to be there after midnight. Overall the capsule was clean and the sleep was good and the bar was awesome too, so it was alright.

The capsules are so noisy esp if you are on the bottom one. Toilets smell terrible. Have to pay for towel and toiletries. Staffs are more helpful towards bar customers and they forget about the in house guests

Stayed two nights at the hostel; with bad experience; 1) very noisy starting from 10pm till 1am for Sunday and Monday night 2) noise starts back again as early as 5am when guest are checking out as lacking of sound proof 3) feeling low energy and grumpy the next day Best to avoid this place

BEWARE of staying at this place if u like a good night sleep. As the location is between bars and restaurants, the noise by the bar patrons can be heard even if you are staying at level 2. Avoid staying at rooms next to the staircase because the noise can also be heard when they walk loudly. The staff service is excellent though.
