Hostel Celica  

Great for what it is, nothing more. Fine value.

Small cramped rooms.

Unique interior and exterior! Friendly staff and good services.

Noisy in midnight and even after. Vomiting staff and bad smell found in the toilets as a negative consequence.

An Original Design

everything ... i will start with ... ideea of ex prison rooms,the court was verry interesting(specialy when you have a parking space in front of the hostel) like a creation place.we liked verry much ideea of live concerts in the spirit of that place,with verry nice and interesting ppl.the breakfast was good,with alot of choises to eat,and not in the last place, the ppl who working there were verry worm and polites.we will come back :)

the colour on the girls bathroom does not match with the rest(my girlfriend says that)

late checkout should be an option..

Individually designed cells - the artwork grows on you. Dinner a bargain at $6 all you can eat.

Ten $ as a key deposit?! You have my cc - if I lose it charge me. Check in not till 3pm. Make your own bed means you get to see the mattress - yuk!

The location was good, and the idea was interesting.

They want this place to be alternative, but I think something was missing. Nice to see here, but absolutely I will not be there again. And, the check-in time 15:00, we can not understand why?

very friendly and kind staffs

the staff were excellent.

shared bathrooms.

Its rather interesting to see the cells designed by the different artists in a former prison. The breakfast is included.

The room was very noisy, there is a constant noise in the inner yard, and the so called air-conditioning (blower) in the room keeps so much noise that its impossible to sleep with that thing on (not that it would even really help). Although you need to take off your own sheets, you will only get the rooms at 3 pm!

It's a former prison that kept up a prison motif with the decor, which was amusing. We had two rooms, one of which also had some interesting wall hangings and books. Breakfast was good too.

We thought we'd reserved one room with a double bed and one with two twins, but in fact both rooms had two twins. Three of our four beds were reached by climbing ladders, one of which had a bad rung. The internet connection was very weak in the rooms, although it was fine in the breakfast area. Also one of our rooms overlooked a plaza with loud music until midnight or so. The other was one the other side of the hall and had no noise problems. (This may sound like a long list, but on the whole we were happy enough with the hostel.)

The novelty of the place appealed to me when I booked and I was not disappointed. Place is very clean despite the huge numbers of people coming and going. Staff are warm and welcoming and the 24 hour desk manning is good especially as the free internet user name and password is changed every 4 hours! There is event going on each niht and the jamming session while I was there was superb and free! I heard that it is in Rough Guide's 25 places you must stay and I'd have to agree.

A-la Carte meals end at 18:0, and only sandwiches and pizzas are then available. This is a bit too early to finish, I think.
