Summary: While this was a comfortable place to stay, because of what it was - an old gaol - it wouldn’t be for everyone. We slept in a cell which was well heated and had a comfortable bed, a toilet and hand basin. We enjoyed our stay, but don’t go there if you’re looking for luxury.

Summary: Great one night stay - obviously not the comfort of a modern hotel room, but this is compensated by the amount of history that is on offer. Still has all the basic facilities you need such as outdoor area, communal showers and kitchen facilities.

Summary: Great stay. COMFORTABLE BEDS. Best sleep I've had in ages. Only downside was not being able to find the WiFi codes, and each of the members in the party searched the entire facility for them. Not a huge issue, however, because we stayed for only one night.
