Une expérience unique à vivre au moins une fois... mais pas sans défaut

Le concept est génial à expérimenter ! On a la sensation (pour le pire et le meilleur !) de faire un bond dans le futur ou l'espace en terme d'hébergement. Tout est neuf et très propre, les équipements communs sont nombreux et globalement de qualité avec quelques efforts réussis de décoration . A tester au moins une fois dans sa vie ! En principe pas de personnel pour l'accueil sauf en cas de difficulté...

... et nous avons dû faire appel à ce personnel car notre code ne fonctionnait pas mais la personne chargée de nous aider était présente dans les lieux en 3 minutes. Seul critique de mon point de vue, les capsules ne sont pas du tout isolées contre le bruit. Du coup, on entend la moindre parole ou le moindre bruit provenant des capsules voisines... mais je me répète, cela reste une expérience à tenter au moins une fois.

Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt. Wetterbedingt länger als geplant

Die Kapseln waren perfekt für ein Hostel. Keine störenden Geräusche, Gerüche….

Cabine insolite. Emplacement parfait. Du reste c'est débrouillez-vous

L'emplacement. Le côté insolite de la cabine.

Personne pour nous accueillir ni nous expliquer. Aucune indication sur les toilettes, salle de bain. Même le lendemain pour déposer sa carte...aucune info. Le matelas était assez fin et il fait très chaud à l'intérieur.

The entrance is tricky to find but overall is good. Check in is easy and the location is good. Kitchen and bathroom facilities are clean. Great experience of sleeping in the capsule.

A few little shortcomings

There were a lot of kitchen items to use (including coffee and tee) and the staff cleaned the dishes. We had enough space on the capsule and were able to store a few clothes outside in a shelf. Self-Check-In was really easy as well as the Check-Out.

There were only two bathrooms open which resulted in waiting a few times. The chill out area is quite small and does not have a sofa. The charging panel and headphones in the capsule didn't work well and in the night it was still a bit bright because you cannot turn of all the button lights.

Fun, friendly, clean.......Ideal in every way!

It was a great experience. The hosts were most helpful and friendly. The pods were fun. The communal shared facilities were absolutely first class. A perfect, fun, friendly place to stay.

I couldn't work the television in the pod - other than that, I can't think of anything else negative to say about the place.

Very cool and unique experience but don't expect it to be very comfortable.

This was a very cool and unique experience. I had never been in a capsule room before and I'm glad I was able to have the chance. We checked in relatively late so we didn't get to see the staff but everyone in the hostel was respectful and quiet.

I was hoping the capsule would be sound proof or that there would be temperature control but neither of those existed. I think it made it difficult for my boyfriend and I to sleep. If you're a hot sleeper or a light sleeper this won't be for you.

Great hostel with the BEST kitchen ever!

The cosiest hostel ever. Great chef kitchen just like in fully equipped restaurant. Clean, friendly, helpful owners, absolutely the best location with the open deck. We enjoyed it a lot.

We had bicycles and they were very helpful to make us feel like they were secured. It was off season, so we were thankful there was a little space for us!

Go there - it was very special experience even for me - a little claustrophobic person... The door is easy to open - so you do not feel trapped. The ventilator work well so the air was fresh. Light inside the capsule is wonderful, TV surprised us - we did not expect it to be there.. The whole space was very nice.. Everything worked well. The staff was kind and very helpful. All the common areas were clean and new. We loved that. Great idea.

Price, location, kitchen are all great.

The capsule is not quite sound proof, and you can hear all the noise outside.

Comfort of the rooms. Common room areas.

Small kitchen. Not enough bathrooms or bathrooms not well organised (toilets and wash basins should be separated from showers)
