Very Good
It is very cool to sleep in a former prison! The place is decorated in a way to remind us of the history of the area, and there is even a small museum accessible to the guests. The staff is extremely nice and helpful, and we were very happy they recommended us to pay an extra for the buffet breakfast, which was exquisite.
You are paying for an experience--the rooms are small to the point where I would not suggest staying here for more than 1 or 2 nights, especially since they did not come that cheap (especially counting the breakfast add-on).

It is a very interesting concept of make use of an old prison as a hostel. At first it felt creepy but then I loved the concept. The room was clean, soundproofing and the bed quite comfy. Breakfast was good
The cells are quite small so there is no space for luggage or in general move around. Also it was a bit too warm at night as we couldn't open the window all the way through

The hostel is very clean. The staff is friendly. We especially loved the bed linen. The showers and the toilets were very clean and roomy. We loved the huge kitchen with the whole equipment. The whole hostel is a museum and it's absolutely worth every penny.
Everything is great. Maybe only the fact that you need to walk a bit to get to a metro station.

It is a very good hotel with a different atmosphere since it is an old prison. Breakfast was fantastic, one of the best breakfast in Europe between the hotel i’ve stayed till today. The location is a bit far, but has a very lovely walking from Gamla Stan for about 45 minutes, also you can always take the metro, but i walked everyday. The area is a bit dark while walking after you got into the hotel’s road, but it feels safe.
I understand the thing about in Sweden sheets, towels etc have an extra fee, but at least we shouldn’t handle to put them to the bed. Also when we rent the towel, it’d be good it come with a hand towel and also maybe a towel for the bathroom floor. During the four nights i’ve stayed, my room haven’t been cleaned even onced, i also didn’t request but the day i came was rainy and my luggage carried some earth to the room and they stayed there while i was staying. Even i just wanted to tell these, it was a really good experience to stay at that hotel.

Brilliant stay. Converted beautifully into a very comfortable hotel. Breakfast was delicious. Loved the museum and learning about the island and prison.
Not many negatives for me. Disappointed that the restaurant closed early on a Sunday but a few decent restaurant options a 10 minute walk away.

The differential of this place is the opportunity to stay in a former prison, to enjoy this uniqueness, the structure of the building
The property is not located in a central area and to get there envolves different transportation and walking. The walking part can be a bit scary when it’s very late at night or when you have a big luggage. The basic room with the bunk bed is very small and can be inconvenient if you are not alone or with luggage.

Location was nice, although getting told this location was for old people. It is a long walk from Gamla stan/ main city but very much worth it, it is amazing. If you're young there is not much of a young person vibe but we were out most of the time so did not matter much. Hostel itself is great, very unique experience staying in a prison and is well kept.
Showers didn't warm up one morning. Shower also flooded - was only issue and is very minor because worked the other days.
