Guest Stories

Loved by travellers.

"The perfect base for exploring Carlton. The capsule was spotless, surprisingly spacious and so quiet — I slept better than I do at home. Brilliant value right on Lygon Street."
Sharyn
"Such a clever concept. Everything you need at your fingertips inside the pod, and the heritage building gives it real character. Check-in was effortless."
Alan
"Loved the moody, futuristic vibe. Walking distance to the Museum, Cinema Nova and the best coffee in Melbourne. I'll be back next time I'm in town."
Dinah
"As a solo traveller this felt safe, private and stylish. The location can't be beaten — Uni of Melbourne and the CBD are both a short stroll away."
Anja
"Fantastic for a budget that doesn't compromise on design. The amber lighting and the whole atmosphere made it feel like a boutique hotel, not a hostel."
Nicole
"Clean, modern and so well located. The team were lovely and the self check-in made arriving late completely stress-free. Highly recommend the capsules."
