Breakfast was not provided! Hopefully, it will be in the future as this would make it more attractive for travellers.
CanadaIt’s a jail with character. This isn’t Abu Dhabi on the 113th floor. This is historic…and rooms are great. Central walking to the lake and downtown. Did I mention, it’s historical?
CanadaThe location was great but it would have been nice if a small breakfast was available. Example tea or coffee with a muffin.
CanadaSimple little cottage but with all the necessities. Close to Victoria Hall.
CanadaNo breakfast at this location. Close to marina and beach and lots of dining venues. Unique decor with partial jail bars!
CanadaAs someone who studied criminology/psychology this was such a cool place to stay! Absolutely love the history, the jail cell style rooms and the museum/artifacts in the basement!
CanadaThank you for accommodating our arrival at 7:30pm.
CanadaThe location to downtown Cobourg is excellent. You can walk to all of the stores, restaurants and waterfront. The manager and her staff were extremely friendly and delighted us with stories of the inn. They were very kind and accommodating. We really enjoyed the "haunted history" of the inn. The small museum in the basement is interesting to see.
CanadaThe prison theme is very well developed. I assumed a few artifacts, but the rooms really gave the feeling of converted cells. You have several cells, though, så no lack of space. Particularly funny for me, having worked in a prison......
Norwaycharming Inn. Staff were outstanding and thoughtful!
