Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The facilities were extremely clean and the staff were very helpful, the hostel was in a great location and I had zero complaints about the breakfast provided. The tour was amazing to do to understand the history of the jail so would highly recommend doing that

    Interesting tour of the jail! Room dormitory give an affordable option and single bed cells are pretty cool and give a safe option for people that needs more privacy, I liked both.

    The localisation is good, the hotel is clean and has an interesting atmosphere. I liked the coworking space. I really enjoyed my stay there. I think it is a great option if you like staying at youth hostels.
