Traveller reviews

“The best pods I've been to”
05 Oct 2025
The bed pods are just perfect: super spacious, you have plenty of space to put all your stuff. Small locks in the room for your personal belongings. Beds are comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need, location is just 5min walking from downtown.

“Superb”
26 Sep 2025
Big Kitchen. So much room in your own little sleeping pod with a curtain. Because everything can be stored in personal pods, the rooms are really tidy.

“Very good”
22 Sep 2025
Location, nice view, clean, comfy and value for money.

“Great value, great vibes”
21 Sep 2025
Great vibe, quiet stay and friendly staff. First time staying in a backpackers with children but will definitely stay again.
