I stayed at the Saintlo Jail Hostel for 2 nights and loved the experience! The concept is great and really well thought. I had a single person cell. It was tiny, but with the very high ceilings it was not oppressing, and felt very cozy! The room, bathroom and common areas were extremely clean! One of the cleanest hostels I have ever stayed at. The hostel is located in a very convenient place, about 10 minute-walk to the Parliament and 5 minute-walk to the Mall. Would definitely recommend staying there!

Very clean. Super close walk to Byward Market and tourist sites. Unfortunately had renos happening but no sound at night. Old building so some things are to be expected. Neat experience.

Absolutely loved going to jail! Really bizzare experience and unforgettable. Cells were authentic and quite small but thankfully the beds were comfortable. Shared communal facilities were fine with enclosed shower cubicles so I didn’t have to worry about dropping the soap. Breakfast was really good. The only minor niggle was that noise really carries so if someone is spending the night talking loudly on their phone you are privy to their conversations throughout the night. But can’t blame the place for some rude self-absorbed loud guests. Great hostel-style experience.
