This is a unique property which made for a fun stay. (My gosh though, those "prison" doors are heavy.) Everything was very clean. It made the shared bathroom factor a total non-issue. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Stayed here five years ago, eccentric place, old county jail, as a retired nurse who had worked at a county jail and a state prison, I was delighted by the place. Tack så mycket
We had a fantastic stay in the hotel's annex apartment. The apartment was so spacious, clean and comfortable. We were able to get a great night's sleep, my partner away from my snoring! Check in was quick and friendly. Breakfast was a good continental selection.
Det var roligt att stanna där. Jag var nöjd med mottagen och fick tillräcklig information om allting. Städningen var perfekt i rummet, köket, toaletterna och dusch. Frukosten var också jättebra och damen som serverade den var mycket vänlig och hygglig. Hon hjälpte alla som skulle sätta sig på restaurangen. Jag tror att priset på hotellet var det enda som ganska var högt.
On the booking page, they didn't marked as shared bathrooms in the rest of the rooms except for single room. I would not have chosen this hotel if I knew that all of the rooms in this hotel did not have a private toilet. I sent a message through the hotel's webpage to talk about this, but I didn't get an answer.
The room is very small. Staffs were friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
Amazing host running the place, and such a quirky place, but just be aware that it is after all an old prison, so quite basic and noisy. Breakfast included was fantastic!
The room is quite small but it has everything you need. The shower and toilets are very clean. The staff if absolutely amazing. They make you feel welcome and are very easy to approach.
Mycket god service. Mysigt och lugnt ställe. Vi hade inte toalett på rummet men det gjorde inget. Det fanns flera stycken i korridoren.
Bas frukost som man blev mätt av.
Ett mycket mysigt, personligt och fräscht hotell. Det var inga problem att toa och dusch låg i korridoren. Bra att man kan fixa mat i det gemensamma köket. Lugnt och bra läge!! Tar ca 15 min att gå till centrum. Det går även bussar!
