Once was a prison for people awaiting trial. Lots of character. The have done a lovely job of vonverting it into a hotel. Rooms smallish by North American standards but all in all, a good place to stay.

This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast is amazing: plenty of food choices and Finnish specialties including the Karelian pie (and veggie option of that even). The hotel is modern, clean and tidy, with maintaining a hint of their prison history. The associated part of the building is almost a community: a gym, a spa, bakery, restaurants, shops and a funicular going downhill to the river. Highly recommended, and definitely will stay there when I visit Turku next time.

Yöpymisemme Kakolassa oli oikein mukava kokemus. Meillä oli kahden hengen standardi huone ja siellä voisi olla ohjeet valokatkasijoista. Meni yllättävän kauan tajuta ne sängynpäädyn sivuissa olevat katkaisijat että saa eri valo tunnelman huoneeseen :D

Viihtyisä ja siisti hotellihuone
Huone oli siisti ja viihtyisä. Aamupala oli hyvä, mutta tunnelmaa voisi lisätä paljonkin etenkin sille puolelle, jossa tarjoillaan syötävät. Tuli mieleen lähinnä lounasruokala.

Hotelli on siisti koska se on melko uusi. Huone oli myös siisti mutta talotekniikka äänekästä. Jostain syystä myös yläkerrasta askeläänet tulivat aika äänekkäinä läpi. Palvelut toimivat hieman vaihtelevasti, koska henkilökuntaa ei selkeästi riittänyt palvelemaan kaikkia ihan oikea-aikaisesti. Esim. ravintolassa huomasi tarjoilijoiden kiireen ja osittaisen organisoimattomuuden. Aulabaarissa tarjonta oli riittävää, tosin raaka-aineita puuttui joten kaikkea listalta tarjottua ei ollut saatavilla. Kyseessä siis pieniä juttuja, jotka kokonaisuutena vähän laskivat kokemusta.
