Space Q Capsule Hotel

Avoid at all cost, this place is filthy. The stench is horrible, feels like a homeless shelter. Booked 4 nights but left after 2 nights, Took many pictures and managed to prove to expedia that the place was unacceptable for unsanitary reasons…

Pretty average and nothing to rave about, the tv inside the capsule didn’t work and neither did the mini safe so couldn’t store any valuables. The shower and toilets had black mould growing on the silicon around the hand basins. Very small stalls to the point when I sat down my knees were touching the door and my feet were sticking out under the door. Reception wasn’t very knowledgeable about Sydney as I asked how to get to the Olympic park, Showgrounds and she had no idea what I was taking about let alone how to get there. Not impressed and will not be going back again.

I'm giving it two stars, One for the concept of a private, quiet and inexpensive stay at a central location, and one star for the helpful, diligent but overworked staff. Everything else was TERRIBLE!!! The toilets and showers were filthy, cramped and insufficient. The plumbing was terrible and the tapware was rusty, loose and dirty. The floors and walls were moldy. The sound insulation between the capsules was missing which means you could not get a good night's sleep. The mattress was too thin.

Small bathroom facilities. Mouldy grout and around sink. Noisy No security. Was informed by other long term guests which have stayed 2 weeks that they have seems immigrants living there Uber eat bikes on the 3rd floor showing illegal workers. Unsanitary kitchen- long term staying, fridges full, sink dirty. Rice cookers, slow pots Asked a person whether the water from the kitchen sink was are to drink and could not speak English. Dusty capsules - in door slide and in the ceiling lights

Location was good close to railway and trams

The areas are not in good conditions, common areas were too messy every time, bathrooms and showers unclean, very bad experience.

The communal toilets need an overhaul. Been the same for years and not clean

I stayed in the Space Q for 2 nights, knowing full well that for the price it was not going to be a luxury experience. What I didn't expect though was the filthy state that the toilets and showers were in. All 3 toilets were leaking, not cleaned, paper missing etc. The showers were very dirty as well, with leftover bars of soap and underwear strewn everywhere on the floor! There was no soap in the dispenser in the shower I used. Good thing I took my own bar of soap. The capsules have an incredibly thin mattress. I did not expect a lot, however I struggled to sleep given the mattress was so uncomfortable, as was the tiny pillow. There is no top sheet on the mattress, only a base sheet, and there are not blankets. It was 30 degrees in Sydney and once it cooled down, it was actually cold during the night. There is a fan in the capsule, but no heating. I resorted to sleeping in my clothes the second night as I was so cold. Never again.

Booked for 3 night, so noisy, dirty and uncomfortable.. toilets and showers were disgusting, the idea of capsules was cool, just this place was done totally wrong, had to rebook another hotel half way through the first night A tent in the local park would have been better

Reasonable price. Perfect location near Chinatown and transport. Service NEW Just near next to it. Staff can look after ur luggage as well after checked out or before check in. Not super quiet but what can u ask for this price. Great for solo Trip in Sydney CBD

The area was dirty and it smells

Unfortunately due to a flight delay, i missed the staffed reception hours and had no way of checking in or accessing to property, and had to book accommodation elsewhere. There was no information avaliable to get help from the team managing the hostel. Very disappointing and upsetting.

The place is run down, I felt uncomfortable being there since I was by myself. No locks on the showers, was just a glass sliding door and the shower flooded. I had to get changed in the toilet. Dodgy people were there.

I did not have many choices in the last-minute booking during the Sydney marathon period. This property has nothing other than the location. The facility is in worse condition, the bed sheet and the blanket are dirty and full of long hair, even though they changed another one, and I questioned whether they had not been washed. Be honest, the location is the best, it's close to the central station and a walkable area, there are a lot of restaurants surrounding. The staff were nice.

Friendly staff arranged late check-in on the day which I appreciated. Cool concept but inside the pods are a bit worse for wear, mine had dirt in the all corners & the stickers/posters were peeling off, also smelled a bit damp. Floor of the room was dirty. Bedding was clean but hard floor of the pod was quite uncomfortable to sleep on. Really weird cleaning schedule too - the lady came in around 10-11pm & obviously made noise so that was quite disruptive to sleep. Overall just needs better upkeep & maybe some refurbishment but it’s a good alternative to a hostel.

The concept of the pod that I stayed in was excellent. However, I couldn't turn the light off. The after hours check-in was inadequate.

I loved this space capsule! It was nice and clean and so coz. I love that it was cheap and close to both food and public transport! I was only in Sydney for one night so it was just the thing I needed.

Property definitely could be cleaner Felt a bit like I was in a 3rd world hostel The pod was very run down Thin mattress and this old blanket with no sheet to use which is not acceptable USB port didn't work Lots of noise from people coming and going and talking

Ended up not staying there, every bed was dirty. Property wasn’t in great condition. Had stayed in capsule hotels before but this was a no for me.

You get what you pay for...
