Doubles 35 .
Elektros Tinklų Svečių Namai: (D-4) Šv. Stepono 11, tel./fax 216-0321. Just south of Old Town. Bottom-of-the-barrel accommodation for the adventurous, and a great location close to sights and the train station. Granted, the front door opens onto a bombed-out building thats become the neighborhood dump, but what did you expect? This is about as good as it gets for a measly 10 .
