“The old prison theme is undeniably the draw here, creating a memorable stay in central Ribe near the Cathedral. While some find the amenities basic and note the lack of constant staffing, the location and unique historical ambiance are undeniable selling points. For those seeking budget luxury, the tradeoff may not be ideal, but history buffs, especially those with pets, might find the experience worthwhile.”
