We had a fantastic stay in the hotel's annex apartment. The apartment was so spacious, clean and comfortable. We were able to get a great night's sleep, my partner away from my snoring! Check in was quick and friendly. Breakfast was a good continental selection.

Stayed here five years ago, eccentric place, old county jail, as a retired nurse who had worked at a county jail and a state prison, I was delighted by the place. Tack så mycket

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.

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.
