Who wants to stay in the Flea Room? It's just one of many market-themed rooms. There's the Flower Market Room, Animal Market, Fish Market and so on. Regardless of themes, all rooms have a simple, edgy and funky feel but are decorated on the cheap. Basically they've tried to follow the W hotels or Wallpaper* concept without the budget. Still there are all the basic facilities, such as flat screen televisions and free WiFi. Beds, however, seem to be very thin - kind of like padded pencil cases. This is certainly refreshing and creative and we happily recommend it to people who are not fat. Located right next to a bustling market, which will make an interesting start to any day.
Old Market B&B comments

We thought this small hotel was great. The staff were very helpful and friendly, good parking at the back, it's near the city centre and a tasty organic breakfast is delivered to your room when you want (you just need to chalk up the time next to your room number on the black board in reception - remember Vilnius is 2 hours ahead of London and 1 ahead of Central European time). - 04

We (me & my boyfriend) stayed just recently in Old Market for two nights. It is a small, quiet and tidy guesthouse with a nice, fresh twist in the decoration. The staff is utterly helpful and friendly - but you don't have the uncomfortable feeling of forced small talk, which I think is great when you just want to have some privacy. I very much disagree with In Your Pocket guide about the beds: we found them wonderfully soft & comfy, and definitely big enough, so by no means like "padded pencil-cases"! The other thing I want to mention is the simple but well-working breakfast (bread, cheese/ham/eggs etc, cereals, milk, fruit juice, chocolate, coffee/tea). It is included in the price, and thoughtfully brought into your room just when you want. Quite nice!
