The reception guy was very nosey and to much in our business he should ask if we’re staying or going and ask anything that doesn’t pertain to the checking in or out of the hostel . The storage locker shouldn’t be used for bikes and scooters they take up to much space and make it really hard for the gust to get in and out of they’re luggage it should be for luggage only . There should be a separate space for ebike and scooters and bikes period . Not piled up all over people luggage and making things hard for other guest . Management please make these changes for the good of all the guest there at the hostel

I actually enjoyed myself very much. I didn’t think I would. I stayed there one night just to try it out and ended up loving it. Ended up, reserving five more nights, very clean, comfortable lodging. The location is superb. I took a long walk on the beach every day and had a nice hot coffee from aroma. It was perfect.
I’m definitely will plan to come back.

Stayed here for one night, I had the 'Tall' room which had more space to move around. The wi-fi connection was great, the place was quiet and the reception staff very helpful and pleasant. The location was fantastic, very close to the waterfront.
The only negative aspect was condition of the toilet, every time I used it there was urine all over it and all over the floor.. the person cleaning the rooms (unlike the reception staff) was not the friendliest person and never said a 'hello'... I stayed away from him..

I found the hotel acceptable. It is a very good location on the beach, basically the best location in Tel Aviv where everybody wants to be. It is very clean, they clean all the time. Very hi-tech. You get a capsule, not a room. It is spacious enough to sleep. There are chairs, tables and a couch next to the pod area. Showers are clean. They are definitely up to date with cleanliness and security. It feels very safe. There is no free coffee but they have hot and cold water available.

Pod in By the Beach

It is a simple hotel....clean....near the beach.

If you are older it is best to request a \"lower\" pod, because it is not easy climbing into the pod....

The property itself was nice, but the hotel charged more than double the hotel cost itself because I showed up at night. This is not warned on expedia and I couldn’t get a refund since it was non refundable at that time. So I had to pay an exorbitant amount. They were really stingy about the extra cost and wouldn’t budge. Terrible reception. They need to work on their hospitality skills and ethics

Good for the price. I don’t know her name but the first day I was there I needed a taxi to the bus station. She tried to help me get an app, but for some reason I couldn’t so she used her own app and booked the ride for me. I’ll always be thankful to her because if it weren’t for her I would’ve missed a tour to Jordan.

As a pod hotel, this place was amazing. The shared washrooms, toilets and other facilities were absolutely spotless. The workspaces and outdoor patio are superb -- facing the beach, with magnificent views of Yaffo. The pod (I had a stand up) was functional and the bed extremely comfortable. The location, across from Charles Clore Beach was unbeatable. The staff were lovely.

Great value for money but not comfortable

good hotel for the money with great location and view to the sea, close to the markets and the sea.
All facilities are clean and even has a sun deck.
The only problem was the noise, very noisy people that can be heard everywhere, people were hanging and laughing all night in the common areas and this made it hard to sleep.

I recently stayed at the O Hotel, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish! The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. The rooms were stylish, comfortable, and clean, with all the amenities I needed for a relaxing stay. The hotel’s ambiance is both chic and cozy, making it the perfect place to unwind. I especially loved the interaction with all the friendly guest, great hotel for a solo traveler.The location is also ideal, beach view front! close to everything I wanted to explore. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a memorable and grand experience. Five stars!”

Dead quiet lodging. The PODS are cozy, comfy with A/C and cubbies for personals. All linens and towels provided. Private locker for the big stuff. Communal toilets and shwers are immaculate.
A huge fantastic lounge with beautiful terrace overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Minutes walk to the pristine beach. 10 minutes to Jaffa

SOLO WOMEN DO NOT STAY HERE

OPod hotel stole $300 from me and I was mocked in Hebrew for pointing this out. They also threatened to 'sue' me in the Israeli small claims court (idk exactly what its called) for pointing this out.
After 4 hours with Expedia they said they would refund me but never did.
The manager George was not available over 4 days to see me. Only after I checked out. He had my contact details and never got in touch.
I am an experienced traveler and this was the worst hotel I have stayed at.
Opod staff define misogyny.
DO NOT trust them. Unsafe. Ruined my week in Israel Palestine.
George you still have my contact, why dont you get off your lazy backside and get in touch with Emma L who stayed in July 2023.

Here’s a summary of my review: lots of good things, a suggestion for travellers, and some constructive feedback for management.

Overall, our experience at OPod was good. Facilities were neat and clean and staff were quite helpful. Premises were larger than expected, with a sizeable sea-facing common area with high chairs and counter for meals or workstation. Outdoor balcony area as well. Very centrally located - close to beaches, restaurants and Old Jaffa City. Good value for your money in a pricey part of town.

Recommendation: pods are comfortable but tight, and climbing in and out can be tricky. Not for those with mobility issues, or if your older and find maneuvering into small spaces awkward. Definitely suited to younger and more agile travellers.

Feedback. We stayed three nights and had a family in our section who were loud, prepared meals in their pod, and were up and down until well after midnight. We mentioned it to staff who spoke to the family but to no avail. They continued and no one addressed the disturbance further. It affected our sleep and enjoyment of the pod. Staff needed to be more firm and I suggest a ‘quiet time’ in pods from 11m-6am.

Very nice common areas, basic pod, but poorly executed hotel layout / design. The bathrooms needed to be cleaned more often with the amount of use they get. The layout of the shower cubclicles and toilets was quite tight, and no practical shelves or hooks for clothes and toiletries. Unfortunately the hand air dryer is located right next to the pods, meaning the pods adjacent to or above (due to a metal grate walkway for upper level pods) can hear the very loud air dryer that sounds like a vacuum every time it goes off, at all times of day and night. The walls of the pod were very thin so external noise could be heard easily. The pod was basic, had some under bed draws, but needed more than zero sheliving. The deluxe pod had a nice semi-private balcony and view of the beach.

I read a lot of reviews for the property since finding something basic walking distance to old city and decent price seemed like impossible task. Honestly the place is pretty cool for what it is. You get a sleep space. I figured out I might be a little claustrophobic in the small pods and I got the tall one it was perfect! Make sure you have earplugs for sleeping if you are a light sleeper.
AC worked fine, coming from someone from Canada fist night in Israel. Staff is super friendly, you have everything you need on the premises.

FALSE ADVERTISING - the original ad on Expedia showed a picture of a full room. I was given the desc of full room. When I got there, I was given a bed inside a cage (they use a fancy word of pod for it) and insisted that I knew what I was getting and there would be no cancellation. I want every penny of my money back!

I like it because the markets were close it was easy to walk around. Almost everything it was close, also the beach
The only thing I didn't like when they gave me the capsule (room) I found hair on the ''clean sheets'' i think maybe the person who change the sheets don't grab the hair also the glass door the glass door had many fingerprints, the capsule they give us. I think it should be clean even if there are glass doors in the (room or capsule) the bathrooms are clean expect they only scrubbed the toilet inside but they didn't clean them from the outside and I never saw they vacuum the carpet in the hallway where the capsules ..
The staff some were friendly and others were not the supervisor was very friendly but the manager needs more customer service. but to stay for 2 days is perfect.
