06 September 2007 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The "cells" were a bit of a shock to start with, but very enjoyable to pretend that you were Fletcher or Godber when the cell door slamed behind you. A fair walk to the centre of Christchurch, but a pleasant one (once you've negotiated the crossroads at the end of the street.

Sonja Hampel

11 May 2007 Sonja would recommend this property

Liked: The design and atmosphere of the jailhouse is absolutely great! Some parts are still like in the old prison days, which is very impressive, but there is also an ironic touch to it all. Photo sessions in the cells are a must! It is also a great place to meet people, it is clean, and has good kitchen facilities. It is the best hostel I ever stayed in during my 8 months round the world trip!!!

Disliked: Sonja left no negative feedback.
