Sibiu
Almost too chic to be dubbed a hostel, B13 offers comfy bunks in six- to 20-bed dorms (one is women-only). The best rooms face the street: they have more light and better views. There are lockers and a friendly chill-out room, and a handy American-style burger bar downstairs.
Buy breakfast and coffee at the zippy ground-floor cafe.
