Not worth it.
Not worth it. Bathrooms are unclean, showers don’t lock. Mattress is about 2cm of foam so you’re practically sleeping on the floor.
Hotels.com we’re incredibly helpful with lodging a complaint but the property itself did not entertain the process.

In emergency only
More of a homeless shelter than a hostel. The place is filthy from top to bottom. Large lounge area but again tired and dirty. The pods are dated and half of the controls no longer work. They get sweltering hot with only a aeroplane style air valve which makes a noise. Went to check in, nobody there for 20mins. Nobody at check out either (8am in the morning). Cleaner just opened my pod without warning. I’d only recommend staying here for one night in an emergency. The only positive is the location on George Street. I also noticed that many of the 5 star reviews is the reviewers first ever review…

Good little capsule hotel for the price.
Pros: the staff were super helpful when my pod/locker had issues. Price and location are great. Felt safe while there.
Cons. Some of the toilets are so small you need to sit side ways on the toilet. But others are much better. When I was there one of the three showers on my floor didn’t produce anymore than a dribble

Great experience. The first feeling in the capsule is weird but after one night very cool. They have place for chilling upstairs. They helped me to let my luggage there even after checking for 6 hours, because my flight was in the evening. Big thank you.

A unique stay in Sydney. Great location for transit as well as walking distance to the art gallery, museum, restaurants, etc. If you’re planning to cook, know the kitchen was not very clean but was still useable.

The mattress could be better since it's paper thin and it's looks like they blown all of there budget on the pods but I really enjoyed my stay

Clean and affordable stay
Better than the other capsule hotel I stayed at in Sydney. So much better than staying at a hostel. The cube was clean and very quiet which helps a lot.

This will be my first choice in Sydney next time
Stayed here after checked out Hilton Sydney. No direct comparison, but good enough for solo and short stay.
Capsule door and rocker can be locked with card and CCTV here and there for safety.
Wish space for eat/drink and extra attention to functioning and cleaness of shower room and toilet. Will stay again here.

The area is close to everything like Haymarket, Chinatown, Darling Harbour etc. Didn't like the chemical smell due to lack of ventilation.
If there's a certain time at night when people are sleeping. Would appreciate some rules and consequences for people who like to make phone calls in the capsule rooms or walk quietly back into their rooms since it's not sound proof for some respect.

Very cool concept, the pods allowed total privacy with plenty of space and was very comfortable. Each pod comes with its own storage locker and electronic safe. Would definitely recommend

First time using this type of accommodation. Staff admitted that the installation was quite old, so some features like temperature control weren't working, though it wasn't really an issue. By no means soundproof, to put it politely. Well managed, but toilet cubicles were not up to scratch. One seemed permanently shut, and one you had to pee from the side not the front of the bowl.
Management was good and helpful.
Last Minute check-in instructions were unhelpful and quite out of date.
