    you might think that in a room with 40 people the noise might be unbearable, but actually it was very quiet and everybody was very respectful

    The female only dorm was an open section - no door distinguishing it or securing it. The wall between the female space and the mixed space does not go up to the ceiling so you can hear conversation and snoring from the other side. Basement vibe was odd to adjust to. Bathroom was super frustrating as lights and fans were on extremely short timers. You have to continually dance around to get the lights back on. No other option as this is in a windowless base. Some shower stalls but not all had mold issues. Finally, there was no orientation from staff, you were just sent to the basement with vague directions - turn left for female space (it was not obvious). The big problem was that every single guest couldn't figure out where the lockers are. It would be so easy for the staff to mention that the drawers below your bed don't lock you have to carry you dirty travel bags into your pod, over your lovely, clean bed to the lockable cabinet behind your pillow.

    I'm a pod fan so that worked out. Great quality mattress. Decent location.

    It wasn't the easiest to find the first time, at reception I was given a key and not really explained what it was for then just told to go down the elevator and that was it for the whole staff interaction. My bed was the last in the corridor and when I arrived at 1pm roughly it was almost pitch black near my bed with no lighting until I got into the bed. A guest was also throwing up directly below my bed and his and it wasn't cleaned until at least midday the next day meaning I would have to jump off my ladder to avoid it.

    The bed was comfy, the toilets and showers were clean and I liked the private lockers in the bed space.

    Bathrooms smelt a bit weird and because it's in the basement, can get quite hot.

    Fantastic location next to the bazaar. Really comfortable double bed - got a great night's sleep.

    There's no possibility to cook or to clean your clothes. Also the ceiling was leaking when a storm hit Skopje. The toilet smelled a lot like cleaning chemicals.

    Nice location in the old Town of Skopje. Boxes to sleep are comfortable and clean

    The room is in a basement. It gets little ventilation and becomes very warm. There was a lot of noice from the beds and loads of people stayed in one room.

    The surface underneath the mattress was a bit dirty, looks like they don't clean under the mattress that often. There's no cooking facilities. The lockers don't actually work (they don't lock). The atmosphere of the place was a bit factory-hall-like.

    The location is perfect. The capsel-like beds are a nice choice, they give you privacy in a dorm. The staff was mostly friendly. There was free water and coffee avaliable.

    Throughout the night, many people check-in and leave, which happens with quite some noise. So if you're not a heavy sleeper, I recommend bringing earplugs. The hygiene of the toilets and shower could be better.

    It's a very affordable option if you need to stay one, maybe two nights. 24 hours services desk is great for people who need to check out in the middle of the night to, for example, catch their flight.

    The hostel is underground part of big hotel and that means the helpfull receptionist is always available 😁. The beds are private, good sized and you have yoir own small lockable wardrobe at the back of your pod-bed🙌 . The location is excellent, just around the corner from old bazaar and 20 mins on foot from bus and train station. Thank you 😊

    On the other hand, is not easy to stay in the room with so many people. Some of them are noisy when they wake up and getting ready to leave. The bathroom/shower area was always wet.

    From one hand, I liked the idea of a capsule hotel. The amenities were in a good condition and I liked the feeling of safety that you get for your personal belongings and your privacy. Also, it was a last minute booking.

    No atmosphere whatsoever - it's in the basement of a hotel. There is a common room but feels more like a business centre; don't expect to meet people here. It was hot at night. But - if you lift your blind even just half way up it does make a difference.

    Great location. Great for a good night's sleep - well I slept well! The double bed in a female only dorm. Liked the conceot of the beds, it was like you were in your own den! Facilities were clean.

    Unfortunately everything was in basement without windows, it didn't have a kitchen, common room wasn't a nice place to relax (feels like the place was abandoned), dormitory can be very noisy (people talking / curtains of each bed).

    Value for money! Position close to the center, kind receptionist and a private parking. Mattress was comfy and clean.

    They're probably short of staff because they combined Hotel Koka and Inbox Hostel together. The staffs have no room to breathe having to deal with customers back to back. While waiting at the lobby, I saw 1 staff running around for multiple errands at the same time from sorting out bookings and payments, fixing the printer and showing the guests around. I feel sorry for her. She deserves a raised.

    The location is very convenient if you're on a short trip. Bazaar and fortress are a stone throw away. The locker makes everything convenient!

    The little boxes have these curtains that gives you more privacy but qt the end you don't really have an airflow in the big room where you are going to spent the night in, so be prepared of not the best air ;) For showers and toilets there is one little problem; I don't think that they have a lot of capacity. Out of (let's say) eight toilets and eight showers only two of each of them were entranceable because there was a table in the way to use the others, by that it means either the others didn't worked or they never functioned in the first place.

    You are everywhere instantly. It was the most comfortable bed I have ever been in. It is super clean. Wifi worked perfectly. Even though we are in North-Macedonia and in general everything is cheap, the price is really giving more than you pay for the night. For the "boxes" you sleep in there is certainly enough storage for all your belongings and there is even a curtain for more privacy.
