“To my surprise, I slept so well. Being in a former prison, I expected to sleep badly. But I slept like a baby. The bed was so comfortable. Thank you! I was the only guest, and I had the whole "haunted" experience myself. What a stay!”

“The expression: Night in the Museum gets new meaning:) . It is quite a unique place and staying overnight is a very interesting experience. Staff is very helpful and even late check in due to unexpected car failure wasn't a problem.”
