    It got very hot in the top pod until I asked for the air con to be turned on, but this was turned off again overnight so I woke up in an oven. The electric blinds were great for privacy but very noisy at 3am!

    Good location for the train and bus stations, plenty of room in the pod for all my stuff and for me. Felt secure, staff were lovely.

    I did not like people being able to check in 24 hours a day. I was woken up several different nights by rude guests and staff who did not respect the hour of the day, despite signs and policies to be quiet during certain hours. The kitchen could use a stove top or hot plate to allow more versatile cooking ability. There was very few pieces of cutlery and only one small paring knife for preparing food.

    The location of M Pods was great for going to the beach and most of the major sights were within a half hour walk. I liked the privacy of the pod concept, however, the tarp didn't do much to block out noise from in the hallway and from other pods. I also liked having access to a security code to get in the building. Being so close to the train station was also a big plus.

    I had to keep pressing the shower which is hard for washinggirls long hair but other than that everything was good.

    The staff was friendly. Every pod had a blinder so travelers had their privacy and would not be easily disturbed by others use of lights.

    Although the privacy screens are very modern, they do make a noise when operating. Not great for late sleepers/early risers

    Very clean. Private and very close to train station. Perfect for overnight stay. Staff very kind also.

    Between 23 and 5 am there was a lack of electricity for at least 3 times! It was a little bit scary because I couldn’t open my capsule without electricity…

    Location is a bit far from the center, about 15-20 mins by foot. There was not much of interaction going on among the guests, no activity in the common room. Suitable for a calm stay, but less so if you want to be joining activities and make new friends there

    Very comfortable private space, very clean, very friendly and communicative staff

    That they would give me a pod on the top. I had never slept in a pod. They expected me at the age of 79 years to climb on a small ladder to the top bed. Since there wan’t a bottom bed available, I had to rent a double bed and pay 20 Euro plus.

    Good bed, kind staff.

    It could be cleaner, also the lockers must be provided for free, where you are supposed to keep your things while you are gone? Also the lockers are very small, I barely fit my backpack in it.

    We had a big capsule, the tv also had Netflix.

    The rooms are poorly noise-isolated, which may be a problem during turistic season. Double-beds (upper pods) are too small for two persons and a bit over priced.

    The rooms/toilets are very clean, the blinds of the pods enable privacy and each bed has also a little space aside which is very convenient.

    The noise, as others have mentioned. People who snore shouldn't be selfish. They should book a separate room. I was kept awake by the snorer opposite me. Not the hostel's fault, but obv there's no sound insulation. I struggled a lot with the smell (of the bedding? Air freshener?). It wasn't a dirty smell at all, but was overpowering and made me rather nauseous. Need to reduce it or change the product for something milder.

    Lovely capsules and bathrooms. Convenient for train and bus station. I got a good price, although now this seems to have increased a lot. Staff helpful. Comfortable beds and good to have more privacy than in a normal hostel.

    The beds are a little hard. I had a top bunk which took effort to get into if you are not nimble. It's a little further out from the city but can be walked in 15-20min so not too bad. There isn't a lot to do in the immediate vicinity.

    The staff were really helpful. The set-up is modern and clean. It felt safe and well organised. There was a good mix of guests of different ages and backgrounds,

    In the end, this isn't a room as such (and they're not pretending otherwise). What that means is that you still put up with the light and the noise (including the snoring) of other guests.

    The woman on reception was amazing: really helpful with tips on where to eat and clear and friendly in how she ran through the way things work there. The layout benefits enormously from arranging what are essentially bunk beds into cubicles with draw-down blinds. In doing so, you get more of a little room to yourself and one that is well-designed in terms of power outlets, surfaces and places to put your luggage (including a drawer under the bed).
