Occupying an atmospheric 1920s building, Mingle offers small but pleasant dorms and doubles. Most dorm beds are curtained and all come with locker (BYO padlock), power point and reading light. Bathrooms are barracks-like and in relatively short supply. The rooftop bar is a popular meeting point, as is the stylish ground-floor cafe where breakfast is served. Great location.
