Girly Bunkation at The Pod!

Monday, December 16, 2013


Nadnut, Jacelyn, Esther + myself were recently invited to try out a “Bunkation” at The Pod, a new boutique Capsule Hotel at Haji Lane! I wouldn't call it a hotel, hotel, but maybe more like hostel with the shared capsule accomodation and share amenities concept? (:

PS: If you're driving, park your car at The Concourse right opposite The Pod! It was a Saturday and i parked my car there overnight and i think it was only a $2 per entry parking fee.


I've never stayed in a hostel before while travelling, the closest i could think of is church youth camp where we were staying at the St Andrew's Village and it was really fun for me then making friends and all even though we had to share amenities such as showers etc which was quite bad because i'm usually one who takes my time to shower but knowing that there's probably a queue out there waiting to use the shower ahhh, i just hate to rush my shower aka relaxing time.

But i'd gotta say, staying at The Pod was actually quite a fun experience for me!

They really go all the way to provide concierge services like
complimentary laundry service etc, simple buffet breakfast, free flow of Nespresso coffee, high-speed Wi-Fi access and more. 

A complete set of amenities is provided to every guest, ensuring fuss free convenience at their fingertips.


This is how the PODs look like! This is the front entry queen type thou, we stayed in the single pod ones so we have one POD each!

Each pod is dressed with 300 cotton-thread count sateen cotton sheets and a fluffy duvet which was really comfy! *snuggle snuggle snuggle*
You can choose between two Single POD types with the front-entry PODs providing more privacy, or the side-entry PODs offering more locker space. Couples can opt for the bigger and roomier Queen Pod which accommodates up to two guests. 

Oh! For female travellers, there are also female-only PODs (which we stayed in) for added privacy!

Each POD comes equipped with:
  ›  Personal reading light
  ›  Fold-down table for laptop use or writing
  ›  Luxurious 300 thread-count sateen cotton sheets
  ›  A fluffy duvet
  ›  Hangers and a clothes rack
  ›  Personal power socket





After we were given a short tour around the place, we went to our pods to leave our overnight bag and we realized that Esther's pod is a couple "pods" away as they were experience high volume of guest then, was pretty disappointed since we actually confirmed our dates maybe 2-3weeks before the "bunkation" booo. ):

After we settled in, we headed out to the arab street area to walk about and to look for something to eat/drink!


Crepe cake for tea
 Mookata for dinner! Nom nom nom all the way 
Hair all up for mookata cos we're getting stinkkkkkkky! 

After mookata, took a short troll back to The Pod, showered and BAM! Bed time! Hahahah gawd we're a bunch of oldies aren't we?! Our previously staycation at Quincy at least we wemt clubbing after dinner and all! LOL


Mmmm comfy bed with my kindle! This is how the side entry pod looks from my view in the pod, cozy cozy cozy, there are these blinds that you can pull down and conceal your pod entirely so i felt that i had my own space and privacy and of course you can off your lights when you go to bed, switch is just by your foot and you can charge your gadgets right in the pod too so no worries on leaving it around and getting stolen by god knows who!



It's been 3 weeks since I've done this set of gellish manicure at Milly's and it's still looking flaaaaaawless like day 01! So adorbs or what my kitty~ Really loved the color combi!


Night night sleep tight world. Scaring you with my makeup-free face!

Lol on a sidenote i don't know if it's me or am i just overthinking it but since i had braces my chin seems to look even sharper when i smile! Hahaha

Woke up feeling mad hungry so we packed up our stuff, left our overnight baggies at the concierge and head over to Haji Lane, Piedra Negra for a quick brunch!
