This was my first time staying in a capsule hotel, and I was a bit nervous, but the pods were surprisingly private. The staff was very helpful in navigating me around the property, and kept everything very clean. There were plenty of lockers available in multiple sizes, so I felt like my things were secure.

Panda Pod Hotel offers a clean, modern, and affordable stay in Vancouver with a unique capsule-style concept. The pods are cozy and well-maintained, providing privacy while still being in a shared space. The common areas, including bathrooms and lounge spaces, are kept clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The location is convenient, close to public transit and the airport, making it a great option for solo travelers or short stays. The only downsides are that the pods can get a bit warm, and noise from other guests moving around can sometimes be an issue. Overall, a great place for budget-conscious travelers looking for a different kind of stay! Would definitely consider staying again.
