A sort of comfortable gothic experience, everything here is decked out in purple, black, white and silver. Beautiful and strange, a received the warmest welcome ever from the owners. Highly recommended.

Not often that one willingly elects to stay in a "prison". This one however, I did not want to leave as it was a truly fantastic experience. The original feature abound and it was a truly memorable evening. I will definitely be back and this time bring my wife to enjoy the experience.

We stayed in the former warden's room, really... More

I chose this hotel to have a change from the usual local hotels; I was not disappointed. The hotel certainly has character; it's the town's old jail. The place has kept a lot of the original features such as the access stairways and the balconies. The rooms are not huge, they are basically two cells joined together, but there is... More
