While some guests report a quiet environment and barely hearing others, others note that capsules are not very soundproof, leading to disturbances from late arrivals or alarms.
“Everyone is super quiet, polite and respectful”
“Super quiet capsules”

Pod comfort
Guests generally find the capsules comfortable and well-equipped, with some noting they are larger than average. Thoughtful details like light alarms are appreciated.
“The capsule itself is quite big and comfortable.”
“The capsule, although small, have most of the things I need.”
“The capsules are bigger than average, with lots of really neat details (such as alarm implemented as flashing light rather than sound, or a flashlight available in the capsule - it is apparent that someone put a lot of thought into the little things that make everything easier).”
Privacy
Guests appreciate the privacy offered, especially in premium capsules with double-thick curtains and dedicated floors. The overall feeling of security is also noted.
“I loved my corner lot with a writing space aka the premium capsule, the issue is that it is really not that different from the standard capsule except for the double thick curtain and capsule sealed corner for more privacy, it is however on a dedicated floor and I love the luggage storage room with dedicated maximum usage of space and lockers.”
“The rooms are very spacious and easy to get to your capsule with a lot of privacy.”
“felt very secure and comfy.”
