No that is a picture of him going into the courthouse in Reykjavík. But prison cells in Iceland are pretty nice though, here is an image of a cell in the new prison Hólmsheiði: https://axis.is/wp-content/gallery/holmsheidi/IMG_1081.jpg

But Litla-Hraun is an older building so the cells are not as nice there.

That's... just a prison cell like you'd find in many places.

Looking at that picture I'm unsure what makes it "nice" except for the fact that it looks somewhat freshly built.

Cells are cells. What really differentiates prisons is everything around them and what amenities and workshops are offered.

There are definitely bad prison cells. Multiple beds per cell, overcrowded, old, cold, hot, no windows etc.

Consider yourself very lucky you have never been to a prison (or jail) in New York. I assure you the cells look nothing like this.

It has a window, that already makes it better than a cheap hostel room I stayed at once.

Go look at US prison cells, they're so much worse, there's often no separation between the toilet and the sleeping area.

Well I meant in contrast to US prison cells, since I assumed most users here are from the US, maybe I'm wrong on that front.
