If you’ve ever spent a night in a police lock-up, staying in this former police station might give you flashbacks. Run by an energetic, clued-in crew, you'll find the four-, five- and three-bed dorms and twins neat and stylish. Self-contained apartments are also available. The in-house cafe opens from 11am to 6pm Tuesday to Sunday. It's 1.3km southwest of the station.
