The hotel has transformed three cells into one large and modern room, although it lacks a bar or waiter service. The attention to detail is outstanding, but a soft chair for TV viewing is needed. The service was top-notch and the location offers a unique experience, blending historical features with modern conveniences. Dining was exceptional, albeit slightly slow due to understaffing.

The hotel has a real pleasing ambiance with clean and modern rooms, but the wait for the room was quite long.

I found the hotel to be an interesting mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were comfortable and spacious, with a great bathroom, but it took over an hour for our room to be ready, which was a bit inconvenient. The staff were friendly and helpful, showing a genuine interest in customer satisfaction, but there were instances of poor communication and unprofessional presentation. The location was a bit challenging to find initially, but it exuded a unique charm by blending historic elements with modern amenities. The dining experience was excellent, offering a variety of options in a unique setting. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were brilliant, clean, and spacious with a lot of history. The service was amazing, the staff were knowledgeable, and always willing to stop and explain the jail's story. The location was fantastic, especially being in the old prison, such a unique experience. The dining was excellent, although a small hiccup with missing toast. Overall, a great value for the money!

The hotel offers roomy and clean accommodations with all the luxury you would expect, but keep in mind they are converted prison cells. The shower and bath combination adds a touch of luxury to the room. The service is professional, friendly, and kind, with personal touches like leaving the kitchen stocked with your own food. The location provides a nice getaway from the bustle of the cocktail lounge, with opportunities for relaxation. The dining experience, while overall great, had some hiccups like delays and cold food. The facilities are well-maintained, offering a range of amenities.
