Rooms were super clean. Bed was comfy. The overall aesthetic was cool—the lounge had a great vibe and excellent music. Free coffee was good. Great location and friendly staff. My only critique is that I wish the bathroom had a fan. Otherwise, the experience was superb. I’ll definitely stay at a Pod hotel again!
