It seems by reading the Bible that some had quite a bit of freedom: they were able to write lengthy uncensored letters, many visitors. I remember one scripture that made a reference to someone being "under arrest" and there unable to leave the city, which sounds like he was not behind bars. People brought them many things also. Anybody? Buellor? Buellor?

It all depended on the prison from what I understood.
Joseph (the son of Israel in Genesis) spent time as the leader of the prisoners in kind of a work camp
Paul and Silas were thrown into chains and beaten
Jesus was beaten and so was Paul.
Most of the disciples, according to historical documents not contained in scriptures showed that only John was not killed for their faith. MOst of them were placed in prison.
John is the one you are mentioning and he was exiled on an island.

Here in the USA, we don't flog our inmates.
I'm sure it depended on the crime back then, but I can assure you it was a lot harder doing time in that period of time, then what it is like now.

really there were no prisons in those days,since there were no trials for anycase,they simply take the life of offenders as per verdict of the ruler.
