    Pleasant service, very good breakfast, quiet environment, no noise. Comfortable room, comfortable bed. Coffee tea facilities on arrival downstairs. Helpful staff.

    Very nice place to get yourself "locked up" for the night

    Excellent personal service. Being a prison, it is a very special building nicely decorated into ahotel. Worth the experience!

    (Free) WLAN had a bit weak signal in my room.

    You've got to try this one!!!!!

    Amazing conversion of a city prison to a first class boutique hotel. Very tastefully converted & decorated. The owners are very helpful. My only reservation would be the limited parking, I guess most of the former prisoners didn't bring their cars??
