Fun place, hard to check in

Fun property but getting check in info required multiple calls, emails, and eventually Hotels.com intervention. Shouldn't be that much work by the guests to confirm check in and get a door code.

Das Zimmer war erwartungsgemäß klein. Leider war es aber auch sehr laut. Geräusche von draußen und vom Flur. Der Fernseher funktionierte nicht. Bad neu. Das Frühstücksbuffet hat mir persönlich sehr gut gefallen. Nettes Personal auch. Toll finde ich auch, dass tagsüber Kaffee und Kekse bereitgestellt werden. Das ist sehr gastfreundlich. Vielen Dank!

Bra frukost men dålig sömn

Bra frukost, enkel in och utcheckning men sängen var extremt mjuk och det fanns ingen luftcirkulation på rummet vilket var fruktansvärt.

Wir waren zwar etwas überrascht, dass wir in einem Gefängnis gelandet sind, das lag aber an unserer mangelnden Vorbereitung. Das Zimmer war etwas klein aber gemütlich. Für eine Nacht wollten wir kein Upgrade machen, was sicherlich möglich gewesen wäre. Wir würden es weiterempfehlen.
