Fun place, hard to check in

Fun property but getting check in info required multiple calls, emails, and eventually Hotels.com intervention. Shouldn't be that much work by the guests to confirm check in and get a door code.

It was an experience to stay in a small cell. Nice bed and great breakfast. Wifi was not good in room. And there was also no curtain which made it very bright in the room early morning.
