This was such a unique experience. I loved the museum-like additions, providing insights into the building’s history

The bathroom stalls were quite small, with minimal movement

"Experience history"

9.0

Unterkunft mit Geschichte. Einzigartig. Top Kommunikation und Ausschilderung. Einfacher Check-In und Check-Out. Kein Zugang für unbefugte ohne Passwort.

Bettkonstruktion (Bunkbeds) niedrige Qualität. Trittleiter aus Metall, aber schmal, dadurch unangenehm/schmerzhaft an der Fußsohle.
