The hostel pod I stayed in felt clean and secure. However, there was no where to park without parking on the street with meters. This meant you had to get up and repay every few hours and it costed many dollars for each day. I was also told that the parking on the street was free after 7PM on Friday through Monday morning. This was not true as I was fined $50 for parking by the hotel on Saturday.
