The staff was very nice, the bed are clean and comfortable. There are restaurants open very late close by but it is far from main attractions if you are trying to walk.

I like the idea of a space pod as my sleeping quarter. It is quite spacious for one person. Just wondering whether there is a two-person space pod in case I decide to bring my wife along in the future. The rooftop is also a good place to find some quiet n privacy. Enjoy so much my stay there.

This is my fourth stay here since April. What I like most about this place is not only the unique experience of staying in a space pod but also the superb services, friendliness n warm reception by the staff. Ray the manager is very helpful with tips on where to dine n always ensure a space pod is available for me on my arrival at 11.30am although checkin is at 3pm. Shafiyya, the equally friendly assistant manager is most helpful with many of my queries such as what do I do if I misplace the card key to my pod. On my last visit last week, she even assisted me in rolling my big luggage to the waiting area for transport to the airport, seeing me as a senior citizen struggling with so many luggages.

Its 14 minutes walk away from mrt and one of the better mall so you'll find food, shooping and entertainment close by. Its pretty lively at night due to it being a tourist spot but peaceful in the mornings and in the rooms. The room itself is clean, futuristic and comfortable for someone who is 6 feet tall but its like a box made out of plastic so even in small noises can be heard by your neighbour. Overall, it was a dood stay znd worth the price for in the future.

6/10 Good

I feel like some of the positive reviews are from when it was newer. This place is on the dirty side, and some stuff doesn't work anymore like some buttons in my pod, such as lock/unlock. Handles have fallen off some upper pods and are questionably glued back on. Shower is kind of dirty, insect colony. Ceilings have water leaks that pool up on the floor. No place to hang towels. It was really loud outside until very late, could barely sleep. Someone was literally banging a drum right outside for a while at close to midnight. I gave 3 stars and not 2 just because this is low priced for anything in Singapore, so it will do if you are in a pinch. Just know what it is. I left after 1 night after paying for 2. Usually in hostels/pods I expect guests who just need a place to sleep for cheap, backpackers, students, etc. The bunks around me appeared to be 3rd world low wage migrant workers with no teeth.

We chose to experience the novelty. This is not to denigrate. But an honest review. It was pretty average.

We stayed for the experience of a space pod. But it is basically a plastic box in a hostel dorm. It was sleep able, the so called breakfast was no where. Toilet in the shower is a very dirty setup, go for a poo & pick up some waterborne disease off the floor. You wouldn't get away with this setup in a western country, the health department would be all over you. I think maybe it was a great set up originally but has been sold off to a lazy owner.

4/10 Fair

Some details they Must have mentioned here before and I would not have booked: 1- reception is only available from 11 am to 8:30 pm Singapore time. 2- they do not provide except one towel every two days for a single pod nor do they clean the pod regularly. I was about to take a bath at 1 am when I discovered there was no new towel inside my pod. When I whatsapped their customer service she said I did not tell them I need a towel that day so they assumed a towel every two days is okay lol. The next morning I ordered two towels and the whatsapp customer service told me I am only allowed to have one towel per single pod. Please do you assume I should use the same towel for two days for bath??? Also I got locked out of my room coz I forgot the key inside the capsule and since there was no reception that time i waited 40 minutes on the rooftop until they answered on whatsapp and guided me on how to open the pod. The price they take is way over the services they offer. Not having a physical receptionist 24/7 is very inconvenient. Also one romanian tourist was checking in at night and did not know his room number so I woke up hearing noises of his trials to open the pod, and it was not his fault coz they wrote him an unclear message about the instructions and of course no receptionist at that time to help.

Huoneet olivat hieman epäsiistejä, sängyssä edellisen hiuksia ja hiekkaa. Sänky piti todella paljon ääntä. Meillä oli alasänky, joten yläsängyn asukkaan vaihtaessa kylkeä kuulosti sille että he tulevat katostamme läpi. Henkilökunta oli todella ystävällisiä.

I received a code to get access to my room after hours, however the code did not work. This is ridiculous at 330am in the morning that a room I booked for the night was not available. I was lucky enough to find a random key to the property and stayed in an empty pod

Wir hatten einen guten Aufenthalt in der Arab Street. Zu Fuß war man in 15 Minuten an der Marina aber auch rund um die Arab Street gab es schöne Nachbarschaften. Das Zimmer ist ganz klar wie ein Hostel-Zimmer, nur, dass man das Bett in der Nacht/wenn man tagsüber unterwegs ist abschließen kann. Der Platz im Schrank hat für die meisten Koffer und Backpacks nicht ausgereicht, aber man hatte genug Platz sie daneben zu deponieren und konnte die Wertsachen/kleinere Taschen dann im abschließbaren Schrank deponieren. Der Check-in nach 18 Uhr hat super geklappt und es war alles sehr unkompliziert. Wenn man etwas mehr Komfort möchte, dann ist das Met a Space Pod sicher nicht die beste Wahl, aber wenn man einfach einen Schlafplatz benötigt und etwas mehr Privatsphäre schätzt als in klassischen 10-Bett Zimmern, dann ist diese Unterkunft sicher eine sehr gute Wahl. Das Essen rund um die Unterkunft ist himmlisch!
