Bring eye covers & white noise machine (or play from you tube on phone). I was delightfully surprised that I actually slept thru the night. The only thing I would’ve done different is, I would have brought eye covers, inside the capsule, there are lights, which is helpful to see your way out, but for me, it kept me awake. So finally, I used my pillowcase to cover my eyes, and I was able to fall asleep. But only with white noise. I played it continuously from my phone, there is a USB charger inside the capsule, which is really great! There are also lights & a mirror. Plenty of room to move around. There are heavy, footed people that will wake up to use the restroom at night, that are unaware of themselves, so they tromp around, not realizing how much noise they’re making. If you stay there, be self-aware: if you’re going to wake up in the night to use the restroom, try to tiptoe out of courtesy for other sleepers. The white noise helped mitigate a lot of the noise! There is plenty of storage for your stuff. 2 pillows, clean crisp sheets, a nice clean blanket, the capsules are air conditioned with a pull down shade. (I brought a small blanket and wedged it from the top to add an extra layer of privacy. Lights don’t go out till like 10pm so light seeps in, especially thru entry point. The communal areas anre also clean, but not perfect, of course they are a little worn/used. Parking garage $20 flat rate, 1.5 blocks franklin d reeves center. Near metro too! 🤗

This was much nicer than I expected. It was very clean and had very a very comfortable duvet. I appreciated how close it was to everything and the coffee shop at the hotel.

Really like the idea of it. For a solo traveler perfect. Capsule is not to small, u have enough space. I’m 19 years old and I felt totally safe and welcome!

All you can want (quiet clean place to stay at a great place) and more (pizza night, beer night, laundry, blow drier and ironing board). Great place to stay.

The capsules are being upgraded and now have lockable doors instead of curtains, and charging stations / outlets that work well! Plus, lockers are now also accessible via the Goku app. Staff was helpful as always. Even better experience than I've had in the past.

Caroline was most gracious & helpful, particularly on arrival. As the elevator was broken, she took my bags up to the 3rd floor, which was great as I am recovering from a fractured arm. The woman barista this morning was pleasant. The staff really made my stay very good!
