Zimmer schlicht eingerichtet, aber ausreichend für eine Übernachtung.
Es ear ziemlich frisch in den Zimmern und man spürt den Durchzug.

Locatie was mooi en hygiënisch was het top
Ontbijt mocht iets uitgebreider zijn
Ik miste vooral het spek en de worstjes

Nice staff, very clean, good breakfast, interesting design - how often do you get to stay in an authentic former prison
Three major discomforts: no wifi in the rooms, no air conditioning, and very limited furnishings in the room (no drawers or shelves). For North American travellers these are things you expect in every hotel.

A unique experience.
You can choose the cell if you travel alone or a proper, nice room, if you travel as a family.
All the staff was very nice and helpful.
We took a lot of cool pictures to show our friends :)

Great free breakfast. Excellent value for the money. Cool motif. Best way to stay in a fake prison and check out the next day.
Noisy hallway sounds leak into the rooms.

The location was great. Staff was friendly. The bedroom was overall comfortable, and the badroom well equiped. The breakfast was great.
There was no internet connection in the room, and the showers were shared but not private. Also, it was a challenge to get into the top bunk.

Very convenient and quiet location. I stayed in the cell rooms which have a prison concept. A first experience for me which was interesting. The hotel and the rooms were very clean and comfortable. Excellent and friendly staff who went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. Breakfast was awesome. COVID-19 protocols well observed. Overall, this is a basic budget hotel. For the price, not much is expected but it delivers.
The internet coverage in the hotel rooms was poor so do not expect much. Thankfully as it was not a busy time, the customer service went out of their way to find me a room with internet so I could get some work done.

I've stayed here before. It's a converted ex-prison so you need to adjust your expections in light of that. It's a quirky place but I like it. It has secure parking.
The curtains don't keep much light out & the heating was struggling a bit.

Perfect stay. Would definitely return.

I liked the reception, staff was there to greet me although it was nighttime. I was personally shown directly to my room as well which was great as well! Everything was provided in the room as well along with a comfy bed and that is the most important.
I did not receive any wifi unfortunately. However, I did not inquire about it and so it might be available.
