The Cell Block

Located in Clifton's Art Alley and halfway between Dallas & Austin, The Cell Block is nestled in the heart of historic downtown Clifton. Enjoy shops, galleries and dining unique to the area. The Cell Block is fully equipped with a queen size bed, full bathroom, natural gas fire pit, roof-top deck, vintage phonograph and record selection. The space Very little privacy in jail! One cell holds a queen size bed and not much else. The other cell, partitioned with original jail bars and new glass walls is the open-air bathroom, complete with shower. A small living area provides two lounge chairs, console table to hold record player, Polaroid camera and dominoes. Pull out two foldable tables, housed under the bed. Small fridge & coffee maker available. Rooftop terrace is great for sunbathing and cozying up next to gas powered firepit. Guest access You'll have access to all rooms of The Cell Block. Other things to note We provide a wall unit for A/C and heat with multiple fans in the bedroom to circulate air. We’ve recently insulated the door and built a rooftop deck in order to reduce heat/cold transfer. Extra blankets live under the bed for chilly nights. Please note the jail is constructed as a concrete block, so it can get chilly in the winter and warm in the summer. Please plan accordingly and expect a glamorous glamping temperature or a European vacation. Aka - you will not be able to achieve inside temperature levels as you do at a hotel. Although quite comfortable, remember you are spending a night in jail. 😉 *Unless something is malfunctioning, we will not be able to give refunds based on inside temperature. Inside temperature hovers around 78 degrees during the hot summer days.
