    Clean and extravagant. I haven’t ever been in a jail🫣. The kitchen is very well-equipped. Cheep.

    The location - just next to the Naval museum (which was the main aim to visit). The cleanness of bathrooms that was mentioned in other reviews. One time of a kind experience - staying in a cell.

    The location is great - 10-15 min walk to the center, close to the bus stop and the area is really quiet and nice for walking around and enjoying the coastal scenery.

    Our stay was great. Late check-in was seamless, and despite the small rooms, they provided everything needed. The accommodation's charm and contemporary amenities made for a memorable stay. Highly recommended for a comfortable experience.

    Very clean, nice location, nice light interior. The doors preserve the prison vibe

    A really interesting experience. some have noted the small rooms, which would obviously be the case when you are in a former prison cell. BUT the ceilings are very high so it doesn't feel "boxy" and the space utilization is good (fold out table)....
