    The hostel is perfectly located in the heart of the old town, making it super easy to get to the tourist information office, attractions, and all the best restaurants and bars. Everything is literally close by, so you won't waste any time commuting. the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the bathroom is always spotless. the friendly hosts make you feel right at home and are always ready to help.

    There's no air conditioning in the private rooms, which can be a bit uncomfortable during hot weather. with proper ventilation or a small AC unit in the future, this issue could easily be resolved.

    Loved how close the hostel was to all the popular attractions - perfect for sightseeing! The terrace and barbecue facilities were a great bonus too. Oh, and let's not forget the lovely shuttle service that added a touch of luxury to my stay.

    Just a small inconvenience - I couldn't have enough of those famous airport delays. Such a shame!

    In the heart of the old town and in a nice and quiet neighborhood. Located in the center downtown, close to attractions, restaurants, and supermarkets. Clean and cozy atmosphere. Friendly and hardworking staff. Well-equipped kitchen. Spacious and comfortable double bed room.

    Nothing that I didn't like.

    I got so much bang for my buck at this place! The room was super cozy and the value was amazing. The location was perfect, close to everything but still very peaceful. The staff treated me like royalty, giving me great suggestions and making me feel right at home.

    The food for breakfast could have been better.

    The hostel is situated in the charming Old Town, which offers a unique atmosphere. It is also conveniently located close to the city centre, making it easy to explore the vibrant surroundings. the hostel provides a comfortable and clean dormitory room, with excellent ventilation and spacious lockers for your belongings. the staff are friendly and accommodating, going out of their way to assist their guests.

    One downside is that the main attractions are a bit far from the hostel, so it may not be ideal if you have heavy luggage or difficulty walking long distances.

    I always choose this place because it has Wi-Fi, free parking, a shared kitchen, and air conditioning. The staff helped me exchange money during my first stay. It has everything I need and I'm coming back for Easter.

    This place was absolutely mind-blowing! The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of everything. The hosts were super caring and treated us like family. The hostel itself was so cool, with a jail theme that was jaw-dropping. The terrace had the most amazing city views, and the facilities were top-notch. Everything was so clean, the beds were super comfortable, and the hot showers were a game-changer. Plus, the kitchen, lockers, and laundry made our stay so convenient. If you're looking for a place with a connection among travelers, run by a family with so much heart and kindness, this is the place for you.

    I stayed at the unique and centrally located Alcatraz Jail-Hostel for 1 night during my budget trip. The hostel's theme was original and interesting, allowing for memorable and funny photos. Despite the prison-like design, the comfort and cleanliness were perfect, and the friendly host, Levan, made the stay even better. The hostel had a fantastic view from the balcony and was conveniently close to the most interesting parts of the city and the nightlife area. I highly recommend staying here for a quality experience at an affordable price.

    Totally recommend this hotel.

    I recently stayed at the unique Alcatraz Jail-Hostel for 3 days and had a fantastic experience. The concept of staying in a prison-themed hostel was really cool and added to the overall ambiance. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful, providing maps and giving me tips about the city. They even invited me to try their homemade Georgian wine, which was a nice touch. The location of the hostel was perfect, just a 10-minute walk from Liberty Square, and the decoration was amazing. The facility itself was clean and comfortable, and I particularly enjoyed the terrace where I could relax and meet fellow travelers. I also appreciated the discounts offered for my extended stay. a great stay at a unique and welcoming hostel.

    I highly recommend this hotel.

The location was perfect, allowing me to easily walk to all the tourist attractions, bars, and restaurants in the area.

I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next vacation.

    Strongly recommend this hotel.
