No shower and no toilet. You have to used public restroom from the airport
I used this SleepPod facility when I had a long layover between long-haul flights and it was very comfy and convenient. The pods are well appointed and it's a nice touch with the water and Chocopies. I had an inner facing pod which was reasonably quiet and I was already aware of the bathroom situation so it wasn't a big deal. Most importantly, the staff Huong at check-in was just so lovely and so accommodating that she changed my booking which I had erroneously booked for the SleepPod at Terminal 1 to Terminal 2,which is where I arrived and departed.
The sleeping pod was efficient and served its purpose. I wasn’t expecting a television, snacks and water, but they were a very nice touch. If you’re traveling out of Hanoi and you have an early flight, this is a great option.
Principle is good however it was a little pungent and the antiquated rattling mini aircon makes impossible to sleep, it was unbearable and couldn’t regulate it nor was it cool even when set to 20. There was a fan but that even noisier, had to turn everything off and swelter. Airport closed down at night so no food options. No shower facilities but for some might not be an issue if only spending a couple hours there but for me spending 7 hours after arriving 2am it was an issue. Toilet facilities only 50m away but avoid these as pods on level above main terminal and obviously only intended for maintenance staff. There are plenty hotels within 10-15minute ride even at same price and offering shuttle ( don’t know about two am but saw buses running) so go down that route and at least have a few basic comforts. I booked purely bast on guest rating of 10 but how it’s given that score I don’t know, perhaps cockroaches have started vacationing in Vietnam. Staff were very polite no issue here
I would not recommend this anyone. The room is very small. it is not really located in the terminal. I have to take a taxi there.
I got scammed the staff. I originally had 2 boxes. Some staff members told me I had to break 2 boxes to 3 because they were too heavy. I had to pay them about $40 to "help" me. It turned out they were wrong. The airlines told me I was allowed to have 2 boxes only and the weight was fine. I ended up leaving a lot of stuff behind.
