Overall, it was very nice, but there were a lot of people in the common areas at night. Apparently, many of the guests from the restaurant next door were directed to the hotel's common space.
Not recommended for those who want to relax in the common space.

Unique stay. Didnt have any issues. Kinda novelty. Mattress not too comfy though and with so many in the pods, its got that locker room kinda smell. But very easy to navigate. Clear. No sweat. Quick and easy kind of place.

Perfect cheap bed for the night after attending a night game of footy. Pod itself was very clean and reasonably comfortable. Little bit noisy with doors closing but couldn't hear talking etc. Bathroom area was just ok. Time we were there we didnt use shared kitchen facilities. Overall would definitely stay again if not anticipating spending time at the pod other than to sleep.

Simple accomodation but just what was required. An alternative to hotels with the sleep
pods and shared bathroom and kitchen. Everything was clean and functioned well

Perfect for a few nights stay, where I just needed a bed to sleep after busy days .
The kitchen / communal area and bathrooms were clean and serviceable .
I would recommend Pod inn for anyone wanting a no fuss , self sufficient approach to sleep and move on
