EXCELLENT stay in former prison!

swedish itemsshared kitchenwindow opening
The breakfast buffet was GREAT with many Swedish items. The staff was Very nice. They are friendly and helpful. I found the shared kitchen space a cute bonus, it was useful. The location is wonderful because it's quiet and inside the park.
Only one window opened in my room. There was no aircon, so it was very stuffy. I think the curtains did not cover the entire window either.
