This is my fourth stay at The Pod. I highly recommend this property. Each time I have stayed, I have had a great experience, and the staff are excellent and very attentive. The price was very reasonable for such a central location. There are ample bathroom and shower facilities, and the sleeping areas are kept at a comfortable temperature.

Accommodation was good, beds comfortable, clean and quiet. Staff was friendly, could be better at providing information regarding places to eat and transportation.
Easy location by bus from the downtown. Limited food options nearby, close to Suntec Mall easy to walk and get the hop on bus.
Overall it was a good stay.

Although it was very cold inside the hostel,
I would recommend it to my friends.
I would like to stay here again when I visit Singapore.

The staff is super helpfull for all your request you may have.
What I missed is a relax area with a seating area. Indeed there is a big table and around a bar chairs they are nice.

I stayed for six nights, and unfortunately for all in the room, we ENDURED a TERRIBLE snorer for two of the nights. One other note, I only felt hot water in the shower one afternoon of the 6 nights. Loved the location.

Great location just off Arab St, & close to Bugis MRT station & right outside Park Royal bus stop. Tiny room though no more than 3m sq. with no natural light. Shared bathroom facilities.

First time in this type of stay. I booked a “Queen private room” and it was ok. Overpriced considering this is a hostal, and I would not recommend it to anyone with claustrophobia. I felt safe the whole time, the staff was nice and the rooms around mine were not loud. So it was not as bad as I expected.

The place was surprisingly very clean. I was impressed with the lobby that's equipped with hot and cold beverage. The staff that was assisting me was exceptionally professional and welcoming. I think his name was Magu :) Thanks The POD for making my very last minute arrangements so wonderful

Just be more conscious about your surroundings as you sleep in a communal area and whilst lockers provided, they aren’t the most secure but there are security cameras.
