Different...in a good way
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.

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

Fantastic stay in spacious annex
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.

Wonderful stay at GF
Stayed one night in "annexet." We picked up the key before 1 PM so 2 hrs before check-in time, great! The little house was amazing with all the space, kitchen and own bathroom :) Bed was a little too soft for my taste but still slept pleasantly. Breakfast was just the basics but very good and filling. Lady at the reception was very nice though there were problems with my credit card and/or the internet. Free parking very great. Close to the city centre so could walk everywhere there. Wifi worked fine. Would def stay here again! Toppen!

Mycket god service. Mysigt och lugnt ställe. Vi hade inte toalett på rummet men det gjorde inget. Det fanns flera stycken i korridoren. Bas frukost som man blev mätt av.

Ett mycket trevligt och fräsch hotell!
Ett mycket mysigt, personligt och fräscht hotell. Det var inga problem att toa och dusch låg i korridoren. Bra att man kan fixa mat i det gemensamma köket. Lugnt och bra läge!! Tar ca 15 min att gå till centrum. Det går även bussar!

Bodde i enkelrum med toalett och dusch i korridoren, fungerade utmärkt. Rent och snyggt och trevlig personal - smidigt att man kan använda köket och ställa saker i ett kylskåp. Enklare frukost men helt ok.
