A fantastic yet eerie experience. A chance to sleep in a real jail and then get up and walk out free in the morning. Well worth it. Facilities superb especially the extensive movie library. I crossed North America for three months in 2006 and this was by far one of the best hostels that I stopped in...

As part of a grade eight trip in 1981, I was lucky enough to stay at the hostel. It was awesome. It is so interesting an intriguing. It is something that I have never forgotten. In fact, I think about it often and hope to see it again one day. I lost my pictures I had taken while there, and just wis...

I booked three nights at the hostel while I was staying in the HI hostel in Toronto. I prepaid 10% and got a paper with a booking password that supposedly guaranteed my stay. When I arrived, I had to wait as nobody from the staff was at the front desk, as well as many other people. After some time a...

All the girls were obviously on the females floor and the guys were above us. The staff was friendly and helpful, plus very patient. (We ended up having to wait for our tea...

I stayed in this hostel when I was about six and loved it! I still remember staying in the cells and the spooky stories the staff would tell us. Now, heading back to Ottawa eight years later, I can't wait to go again! I would recommend it to a...

It was okay. Friendly staff. We stayed in a private room, which I really wouldn't recommend. It was very uncomfortable, stuffy, and not terribly clean. One bathroom per 10 (or so) people pretty yucky. I think that I would have had a different opinion of the dorms, from what I've heard, but the priva...

The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because after my unexplainable experience there, my last night was a difficult one at best. It's interesting, fun, and very convenient to see ...

This hostel is a hoot! It is something anyone with adventure in their soul should experience at least once. I loved being able to stay in an authentic jail cell, complete with all the trappings. Despite the antiquity, everything was clean, orderly, convenient, and fun. The staff was helpful, friendl...

This is not a good place to stay - user review
This hostel is in the HI-net of hostels and so one would expect this to be a right place to stay (usually, HI-hostels offer good service). This is not the case with this particular...
