    The idea of the pods is amazing, they give you almost the privacy of a private bedroom (except noise-wise), but at the price of a dorm bed. Staff was kind. Price was great. I appreciate they sell some snacks, so you don't have to go out if you...

    The pods are really comfortable to sleep in and create a bit of privacy, even with 6 other people in the room. The accommodation is clean, the kitchen has everything one needs to cook a decent meal.
