Summary: The room was extremely small and felt very congested for four people. With two bunk beds, there was barely any space to walk or pass each other. The bathroom was also very tiny, and there was no hair dryer provided, which was inconvenient. My stay was only for one night, but even for a short stay, the lack of space made it uncomfortable. The building’s exterior truly resembles its original purpose as a jail, which has now been converted into a hotel—an interesting concept, but the room comfort did not meet expectations for a family stay. On a positive note, the receptionist was absolutely awesome and very helpful, which we truly appreciated.
