This is probably my favourite hostel that Ive ever stayed in (and i've stayed in a lot!) So much character, the staff are lovely and the ghost walks are good too.This is probably my favourite hostel that Ive ever stayed in (and i've stayed in a lot!)

Couples, be warned! We were ripped off. Originally we booked a double room, but we were located to a family room (space for 6 people) and charged for that-they claim it that they usually do that and "if you click on the double room description, the family room picture appears") - that's really poor for a explanation. The breakfast was sensationall-3 kinds of cereals+bananas+apples+yoghurts! The Jail tour is definitely recommended to learn about it's history!Parking $5. Couples, be warned! We were ripped off.

Although the hostel is cleaned every day, I woke up in bed with bedbugs! cost me all night cleaning all my clothes and bags. We did get compensation however: all the costs for washing and drying were covered and we were transferred to the biggest and nicest room in de hostel.Although the hostel is cleaned every day, I woke up in bed with bedbugs! cost me all night cleaning all my clothes and bags.
