Erikoinen hostel Vankilahostel, vessat ja suihkut käytävällä. Ennemminkin yhteismajoitus kuin varsinainen hotelli, vähän hippi meininki. Yksi yö meni hyvin. Paikan historia on kiinnostava.

Lugn och skön upplevelse på detta charmiga lilla hotell. Glad och hjälpsam personal. Rummen är lite lyhörda. I övrigt ligger hotellet i en ganska lugn del av staden. Frukosten som serveras är kanske inte överdådig men tyckte dom erbjöd det väsentligaste.

Mysigt hotell men dålig sömn Det här är ett charmigt och rustikt hotell med mycket trevlig och tillmötesgående personal. Sängarna är dock rätt så knöliga och kudden alldeles för hög. Det är även lyhört mellan cellerna. Tyvärr sov jag knappt alls under min vistelse.

Different...in a good way 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.
