I really liked the small sleeping pods and the super friendly staff. What I didn't like was that toilet and shower cabins are in the same room. Showers would have been much better with quite some more room (to leave your stuff while showering).

Great location, just a walk from the Richmond-Brighouse station. Love that it’s 24h check-in. Lots of locker space. Felt very secure, and I slept well in my pod even though it’s small! Clean bathroom as well.
