The listing made it look like the Pod was in the middle of a field and not next to the office building. On the plus side, nice hot water, Good bathroom. Clean.

Dishwasher was out of order, mattress needs replacing or a mattress topper at the very least. Sofa only reclined on the left, I think a two seat recliner would be much better, it could be facing the view and tv
