I loved the unique experience of sleeping in a converted prison cell. The atmosphere is fascinating, filled with interesting history on the walls. The common areas are great for relaxing, with options like games, puzzles, and a TV lounge. the location is perfect, just a short distance from the city center and various dining options.

I loved the hotel’s unique prison theme, which created a fun and interesting atmosphere without feeling creepy. The cleanliness was outstanding, and the spacious layout provided a variety of facilities like a well-equipped kitchen and games. Its location is also convenient, being close to public transportation and a lovely café just around the corner.
