시쉘 모텔 & 인터내셔널 호스텔

This was a lovely hotel to stay in. It was walking distance to some of the biggest tourist attractions and beaches.

Ok ställe men rummet var i minsta laget för 4st men allt var fräscht.

I booked the hostel and yes I understand how hostels work, a bunk in a shared room with shared bathroom facilities. I’m ok with that, no frills is what I expected. The issue however was the facility was literally a very small cinderblock room unattached to any other building. The “grounds” were nonexistent. It literally looked like what I imagine ground zero of a bomb explosion looking like. Gravel piled up, no trees or grass or cute colored chairs around an outdoor seating area as the advertised picture showed. Only a couple other cinderblock buildings in various degrees of demolition. Inside was very dark, only a trickle of light from an outdoor street lamp seeping in. I tripped over luggage and shoes (I think) in the dark, cramped room. It was late and I had little choice but to just lay on the bunk until the sun came up and I could leave. I imagine the cleanliness was lacking, perhaps the reason for poor lighting. To say that I was blown away by this accommodation would be accurate, however in the most negative way imaginable. If you are looking for a war torn experience without the danger of death, (tetanus being the exception), this hostel is the clear winner. If you book this hostel expecting a clean, reasonably priced, no frills, cute colored chairs around outdoor seating area type of experience…. you will be sorely disappointed.

Not a bad choice Reasonably priced for someplace to just crash for the night, beds were a luttle hard, no bfast, no pool, so just a place to crash and shower. AC kept room cold, did have a mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. Close walk to Duval, I would go back.

King suite was wonderful but mattress needs to be replaced and pillows a little more fluffy

Convenient location to Duval and beach. Pool is under construction. Staff is very friendly and room was nicely updated.
