The 'damn' rooms are a closet. Whoever came up with this 'pod' idea needs to have their head examined. It's the worst marketing and failed 'innovation' on lodging I have ever seen in my life! I will never in my life stay there again! It's a very bad marketing and facility concept! The concept should be about room to breathe, not room to be marginalized or screened into. Life already cramps most non-wealthy people, so why would a hotel accommodation conceiver think that's what people want? A bad invention!

I loved this place and would definitely come again. Very convenient location. Only complaint is that the shower door didn’t really seal good so whenever I took a shower, a puddle would form right outside of the shower. Other than that, great hotel.

Clean room and comfortable bed. Queen pod is very small but is fine if you don’t plan on spending a lot of time in the room.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Pod Brooklyn. The hotel is nice and clean and it’s so easy and fast to get into Manhattan by subway from there. There’s also very nice common areas to hang out in. I will definitely book here again when I’m in town!

If I’m ever back in New York I will absolutely only be staying here! It was perfect. Tiny and cozy and so comfy. The beds were sooooo comfy. It’s perfect for a 20-something year old girl traveling on her own!

No Empathy
Landed at midnight in Newark and called the hotel to ensure they could accommodate my check in, person at the desk said it would be no problem. Arrived to the hotel at 1:30 and was told there were no rooms available and I could not stay there. Was then told there are no available rooms in the area. After about 45 minutes of searching I was offered a bunk bed room at the Pod in Times Square for $900/night. I asked for a refund ($1200) and was told I could not have one because I did not book directly with the hotel. The desk staff at Times Square was more sympathetic and offered me a discount to accommodate.

The rooms are uncomfortably small for two people. The bathroom wall is made of glass and every time one of us needed to use the bathroom, the other had to leave the room. The hotel was clean, staff was very helpful and area was amazing.

As a solo traveler, Pod Brooklyn was fantastic - the building was clean, stylish, and the staff were very helpful. What others see as a "small" room, I saw accommodations that checked off most of the essentials (quiet, safe, comfy bed, etc.) while encouraging me to get out and explore Brooklyn and Manhattan. I can't speak for those with bigger groups or looking for a "luxury hotel" experience, but I would definitely go again.

One step above a Hostel
Location is great, rooms are clean and tiny, check-in was easy and polite but “service” and amenities are old-school College dorm at best. Restaurant was “temporarily” closed; a morning only, single k-cup coffee maker in the lobby for all guests to share was thw only morning wale-up option. No juice, no water, no vending, no place to purchase anything without leaving the hotel (We’re being punked right?) Narrow hallways were being painted with active guests passing thru. Fumes were pervasive. Upon checkout, they had the nerve to add an unannounced “facilities fee” to my prepaid invoice. Said it was compulsory for bike rentals etc….. say what? I didn't rent a bike or take advantage of any theoretical facility amenities- not even housekeeping services!! . There were ni amenities to speak of. My expectations for the POD hotel were not tthat high to begin with but I’ll not stay here again because of this act of unannounced extortion. Pod corporation should be better than this.

I would have checked our immediately if I wasn’t only staying for a night. The toilet was in the shower! That was so disgusting to me. I was so uncomfortable in my room. The reviews said the rooms are small but it didn’t prepare me for what I experienced. It was the size of a jail cell. Also, the restaurant/bar in the lobby was closed and so was the outside area. I gave it a try because I was sold on the rooftop and common area spaces, which I didn’t get to experience at all. I felt like it was a waste of money. And they charge a destination fee, which I’m not sure why cause nothing was included not even a bottle of water in the room. The tv was the size of the TVs that are in a car. Unless you are looking for a crash pad, go somewhere else!
