Hi All. We are looking into the option of transforming an office building which has a good location to a hostel. One of the main issues is of course the number of rooms which can be offered there.
The building is shaped as a square and each floor is currently an "open space".
Of course, rooms can be created in the outer part of the floor with windows. The question is what to do with all the "wasted" parts in the middle of the floor.
- What are your thoughts on windowless rooms? Do you offer them? What are the guests comments to them?
- Do you have any ideas of unique features to somehow create sleeping rooms there?
I know we can put some common areas in the middle of each floor(like internet stations) but since it's a big building (5 floors) it's a major loss of money not to have more rooms there.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for sharing the photos MrBenson. The twin room looks very nice indeed. I think tastes vary from person to person. Personally, I love the protected cave-like feeling of a windowless room for sleeping as long as it's nicely decorated, has good lighting and ventilation. MrBenson, is the light coming in from the ceiling natural light or from some bright artificial source? If it's artificial, what is it?
