Fun place, hard to check in
Fun property but getting check in info required multiple calls, emails, and eventually Hotels.com intervention. Shouldn't be that much work by the guests to confirm check in and get a door code.

Mycket prisvärt!
Smidig incheckning, trots att receptionen var stängd.
6 kvadratmeter sovrum och 3 kvadratmeter badrum. Mer behöver man inte.
Att det sedan frukosten levererade både kallt & varmt var extra trevligt.
Mycket prisvärt!

Fængslende oplevelse ;)
Originalt og skønt værelse - selvfølgelig var det småt- men det er jo en del af oplevelsen, når man bor i et tidligere fængsel. Gode senge og super beliggenhed.

Haft en fin helg i Västervik och bodde på Fängelse Hotellet som verkligen varit till belåtenhet o rekommenderas varmt. Bodde i en liten cell med dusch o toa. Skön bred säng, tv på väggen. Trevlig personal. Mycket bra o god frukost. Perfekt parkeringsplats som är gratis.
