Summary: Despite having worked in a prison, this iconic venue brought home a taste of the reality even with comfortable beds and the freedom to come and go. It's not the staff's fault, but some inmates need to learn the meaning of the silent period routine. Glad we came back for a second stay, even though the setting has lost its novelty value for us...
