In Québec, you can also experience life behind bars in the Old Prison of Trois-Rivières. Not as luxurious as this one, but closer to the reality!
Originally conceived to house around forty inmates, the prison was sometimes packed with more than a hundred.
The unhealthy conditions of the prison led to many renovations over the years. Before closing in 1986, Trois-Rivières’ Old Prison was the oldest functional corrections establishment in Canada.
Back to this hotel, I don't understand why people would choose to spend a night in such a fake prison. It's obviously not to get a taste of prisoners' lives behind bars. It's like they were mocking life behind bars, blowing away their money to get a surrealistic taste of an inmate's life.
