The 'Metrostay' offers cozy bunk beds in a clean, well-lit dormitory-style rooms. Each guest is assigned a digital locker to store personal belongings securely.

The facility includes a games area with indoor recreational activities like carrom and a mini-theater where guests can enjoy movies and live screenings.
To ensure safety and comfort for all, especially female travelers, the Metrostay provides separate dormitories and washrooms for women.
Speaking about the facility, Altamash, the store manager of Metrostay, said, "This pod hotel started in January. There are around 150 dormitory beds available. People can register through both Goibibo and walk-in options. We have several facilities like a theatre, lounge area, and game zone.
