Staff were very friendly.

It was really cold and really loud, we didn’t sleep! Pretty overpriced for a hostel.

"Novelty Hotel"

6.0

This property is more of a novelty than a hotel

The property is more of a hostel and not quite what we were expecting

"Great staff, great location, great amenities. Thank you!"

10.0

Great location - easy access to bus stops and airport. Lots of room. Helpful friendly staff. Good amenities.

Female toilet stalls were cramped and uncomfortable to use. Nature of building being tall and concrete made it chilly.

"Happy to come back"

10.0

Such a unique stay. They really kept the jail theme and Charme with the amenities of a modern hostel. Big kitchen. Laundry area. Gaming rooms. Free parking.

Because of the original steel doors Wifi can be spotty in the room. But it works and even better at the hall in front of the room.
