Galaxy Inn luxury hostel in Yerevan
Compared to ultra low budget hostel in Tbilisi, Yerevan I opted for a pod hostel.
Galaxy Inn hostel gets you a high tech fancy capsule to sleep in.
Good things:
- Decent locker space
- High tech capsule with mood lighting, TV, etc
- Kitchen access & very good bathrooms
- Most key places like Republic square etc are within 1-1.5 kms radius.
Not so good things:
- Locating the entrance is bit hard- takes effort as it is not easy to see.
- Kitchen is basic- good for heating only- Fridge, Microwave and kettle is available, no gas stove, so can't cook anything serious.
- Can't speak inside the hostel- have to go out. The capsule they could have made sound proof, so that we can speak from inside.
- We get a smart card for access but this doesn't work on main door. Need to wait for staff to manually unlock the door while entering each time.
- Staff doesn't seem to have a dedicated room- they sleep in empty capsules if there're no customers or sleep on the chair.
- I felt air circulation is very less or nill inside the capsule with door closed.
- Because it is underground and cabins are closed, mobile signal was very weak.
- No 3 pin plug points for charging laptops- had to go to Kitchen for the same

Galaxy inn has about 20 odd beds in the basement and is a good place to stay overall- you may have to climb up if lower beds are not available.
