Stay was nice.
ERICA, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Capsule hotel should have beds that are enclosed, not just hidden behind a curtain
Chun Wing, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Reasonable spot to stay before an early flight
Finnan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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).
Miriam, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was great, I found the bed comfy and quiet
Victoria, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

They should advertise as a hostel not hotel
Matt, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect place to sleep after a late flight
Harold, 1-night trip

As advertised. Clean, affordable pods near Vancouver airport
Carl, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great staff. Clean well cared for. Seedy environment with garbage bins fro restaurant but tolerable. Neat outside decorations with synthetic shrubbery.
Leonard, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

If you are solo traveller & want to be on cheap budget, this would be a good place to experience this. I don’t mind the single pod bed & amenities that come with this. I wouldn’t recommend for big families or big groups of people to do this. It is convenient that it’s close by to the Richmond Centre & Transit. Overall, not bad experience!
Adriel, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hostel life

It was alright, good place to just crash for cheaper than a hotel, hostel style accomodation.
wesley, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

For $100+ per night, I wouldnt stay again. Inteied it to experience the sleeper pod model but the price point needs to be lower in my opinion.
Micah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Margot, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

very unique and worth the money, i enjoyed how peaceful it felt and the pods were a lot better than i expected
