I ended up canceling my second and third booked nights at the pod because it was just too basic for me. It was clean and new and in a great neighborhood, but I really didn’t like the tiny bathroom with its combination toilet/shower stall and glass doors and walls. I can’t imagine sharing it with someone else.

Thank you for staying with us. We do have rooms called Pod Plus that does offer more square footage than our standard rooms and will also have separate toilet and shower in the bathroom.

Stunningly tiny space (including a toilet in the shower) and a significant discrepancy between the listed cost and the final cost. Comfortable bed but repeatedly bumped into the metal bed frame. I recognize that a space like this is soley for sleep and for patrons to be in the neighborhood but should be illegal to charge so much for an uncomfortably tiny space.

The room size was tiny, but the price reflected the location and wasn’t much cheaper than other hotels in the area. The toilet was in the shower and open at the top so it sounded like you were in the same room as the person using the toilet.
