I really liked the small sleeping pods and the super friendly staff. What I didn't like was that toilet and shower cabins are in the same room. Showers would have been much better with quite some more room (to leave your stuff while showering).

Great location, just a walk from the Richmond-Brighouse station. Love that it’s 24h check-in. Lots of locker space. Felt very secure, and I slept well in my pod even though it’s small! Clean bathroom as well.

Convenient, affordable. Staff was very nice and accommodating of a pod change (post surgery so had trouble climbing to the top pod). Close to mall, groceries and restaurants. Area outside in the parking lot and surrounding area is a bit sketchy, and not clean.

Rip off
Who doesnt love a pod/capsule hotel?
But this is twice the price that it should be.
For this price, you can get a pod hotel in NYC with individual shower rooms, individual toilet rooms (not stalls) and an actual “room” where you can stand like a dignified person and put on your underwear.
Typical Vancouver. 2 star quality for 5 star pricing. Because… Vancouver.
