Quite ok for the money, after all you are in a former prison with a museum feel.
There were sometimes problems with the room cards, they didn't always work. Breakfast ok, parking in front of the hotel ok!

It is a prison! You can feel it, however it is cool to experience it for a night. We got to check-in right when the Front Desk was closing for the day. A but eerie inside when no-one is around and you have. Bathroom could have been cleaner. Okay-ish breakfast. Overall great for a night!

Slitet och smutsigt men bekvämt.
Smutsigt på toaletter och vid frukosten. Väldigt hög musik från en fest utanför som störde under natten. Toalett och duschrum väldigt slitna. Men sköna sängar.

Fängslande natt
Prisvärt och hade det man behövde för en natt vidare iväg på resa. Trevlig personal med glimten i ögat och humor.

Var itrolig spennende å overnatte i et tidligere fengsel. Var utrolig gode senger! Det som var dumt er at det ikke er heis og det hadde vært flott om menn og damer kunne forholdt seg til menn og damer bad/toalett når det er felles! Utrolig ukomfertabelt å gå inn på dame badet og det står en mann der å steller seg! Frokosten var ikke noe! Greit det skal være enkelt, men kan se litt mer innbydende ut. De som drev Waterside var utrolig hyggelige, men syns de godt kan være litt mer profesjonelle. Ved frokost satt de i frokostsalen og spiste frokost "sammen" med gjestene.

Relativt godt
Hotellet ligger virkelig godt og med flot udsigt. I gåafstand til det meste.
Ombygningen fra fængsel til hotel har nok engang været ret så god, for man kunne se spor fra tidligere, og det gjorde bygningen interessant. Nuværende ejer virker dog gladere for romantisk stil samt bar-memorabilia, hvilket skaber et noget underligt clash (og ikke til det bedre).
Sengene var ret gode og på familieværelset var der god plads.
Morgenmad er inkluderet, men forvent ikke for meget.
