An absolutely fabulous place. Really playing on yhe history of the building all while still giving privacy, security and fun.
Location is super close to a variety of restaurants, cafes and take-away stores, and a general store for those forgotten small items.
Parking is free but it's a first come, first serve scenario.
I loved staying there and highly recommend to any traveler looking for a funky and reasonably priced accommodation.

위치는 좀 시내랑 벗어나있지만 너무 멀지는 않아서 걸어다니기 괜찮아요. 저녁때 넷플릭스&디즈니 볼수있어서 좋아요.
위생 청결도 매일 오전이 스태프들이 대청소 같이 해서 굉장히 깨끗하네요. 전체적으로 만족합니다

クライスト中心地バスターミナルからバスで20分弱、歩いても30分くらいのアクセス。
中心通りから一本中に入った刑務所リノベホステルで、事前に必要な入館パスワードなど入手していたので、スタッフとやりとりしたのはドライヤーを借りるときくらいでした。二段ベットの下段にはカーテンがありますが、上段にはありません。Wi-Fiはロビーだけでなく部屋まで届いて使えました。

Nice experience to stay in a jail style hostel with helpful staff
Well equipped kitchen

This is a hotel that was converted from a historic prison. The staff are very nice and the guests are very friendly. It feels like a big family living together. It is not too far to walk to the city, so everything is very convenient.

Really cool location to spend a night in a jail, but a bit away from city center.
Beds where comfy but lacks curtains for more privacy.
Bathrooms a quite old.

It was a bit out of the centre, so we travelled by bus.
The staff were nice.
I was a little disappointed that there were no power sockets in the toilets or in the shower rooms...
