Very convenient if you are touring the city and in a shoestring budget. It's just in front of the KK Waterfront, you can enjoy a great sunset view. It's also a great experience sleeping in a capsule! The staff were nice and the hostel is clean and well-maintained.

I never write bad reviews and i’ve been travelling to almost 10 countries including other malaysian states as well as other hotels in kota kinabalu coming from canada. This check in/check out experience was a shock to me. I landed and they asked for 50 ringgits which was unclear to me prior so I didn’t have cash. I asked if they have transfer and she said no. Then I went downstairs to deposit cash and due to accent barrier, I thought she said 15. I went back upstairs to give it to her and she was like no I meant 50 but we have deposit like I had to pay an extra 7 canadian depositing money from the atm. Afterwards, I finally used wise to transfer the money because money is never the issue, being unclear is. I paid an extra 2 canadian again for this. During checkout, the new receptionist asked for my wise account even though I told the other one the night previously that I’m not sharing my bank details but I will share my username on there. There is no communication and apparently their finance team is not available on a monday so the money transfer did not happen and would take “3-5 days” to transfer. 50 ringgits could buy you so much in Malaysia and i’m just really frustrated at the lack of clarity and being able to deal with foreigners. The room was fine but mind you toilets had no working water so could not flush which was crazy to me. Breakfast was bread and butter which is fine but nothing extraordinary. I would never come back or suggest again.

膠囊內舒適, 環境清潔待加強, 性價比略低

公共環境和浴室清潔度非常差，浴室洗澡只有冷水，洗到一半還沒有水。時常聞到抽菸味(其他房客在廁所或門口外抽菸飄進來)。房價包含早餐，但是隔天早上小Bar檯上沒看到早餐。身為Hotels.com的Gold Member，住過許多背包客棧和小旅館，不推薦這間。

인본캡슐호텔과 비교하면..

위치는 워터프론트 건너편에 환전소, 빨래방, 스타벅스,맛집있는 와리산스퀘어라 좋습니다 근데 캡슐호텔안을 청소하지않고 화장실에 슬리퍼 한개에다 소변기가 없으니 변기날개에 소변튕리있고 지저분합니다 가장 중요한게 화장실이며 같은 가격의 일본캡슐호텔은 매일 청소하고 타월 가운주고 화장실에 비데와 소변기가 있습니다.

Overall worth the money.

Accommodation looked futuristic as seen in the pictures, clean, staff is very friendly. Just in front the shore line and can overlook the sea. Overall very nice! Just that need to take note toiletries such as shampoo, body wash are not provided. There's no hanger in the shower cubicle, u need to hang outside the cubicle which mean u need to be naked at some while. But no problem though as it is separate sex.
