Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Let me start by saying the owner/ staff on duty was great and accommodating. But the property photos are misleading. When I arrived late I didn’t feel safe and actually chose to stay up all night at the airport instead of the pod. The idea of sleeping in a bed next to strangers with no security on staff on duty… and a curtain in between didn’t feel right, so I left. Expedia also doesn’t list their policy that if you book after 8pm and are arriving after midnight you can not check in. Only once I bought and paid for it did I receive that information in an email. The only reason I even considered a low-grade hotel was because I only needed it for a few hours to sleep between flights so that information should’ve been provided before I booked. Perhaps for some this type of stay is adequate, but for me, I would never consider it again

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel not as described, dirty and noisy. There are blind closures so light comes through and people can see you getting changed. Dirt, hair, and sanitary towels everywhere in female washroom. Poor service at reception. Limited light switches and lack of noise insulation. Asked for a refund but was denied.

I had a great stay for 2 nights. My only concern was the Female Restroom which wasn't secure so a member of the opposite sex could easily access this area especially in the shower area. When i was showering, i felt quite vulnerable. There was a tv mounted in the kitchen area but was told it wasn't working.

Cool spot. A little hard to get in the top bunk but it’s an easy, and cheap option when in a pinch.
