Cooking facilities were limited to basic s, toaster, kettle, air fryer, egg cooker, and microwave. No oven facility. Sleeping pods were clean and well equipped. Communal area was conducive to catching up with fellow travellers or just relaxing

Bit of a 'funky' smell in the pod section. It would be great to have some nilodor or similar to reduce the odour. Great access to adjacent noodle bar. Very central location. Easy on street parking after hours.

My first POD experience and it was a good one. Courteous staff, clean and modern showers, convenient communal kitchen & lounge area. The only thing not thought about is a change room, so when you want to get into your PJ's you have to go to the shower block to change, and there is not much room there! Overall very good, all the fellow PODsters were nice.
