Lock in a great price for Archipelago Hostel Old Town – rated 8.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

the location is really in the heart of the old town, and can be walkable to the surrounding famous buildings. the hostel is well managed and cleaned, but the staff is a little rude to break in the room to tell me something that is not totally written on the rules and regulations. this hostel does not allow anyone to deposit luggage for any time. and the check out time is entirely out of expection, 11 am, YES, 11 am. so we have to be hurried.
