Unique location as a former prison. Rooms in the prison part are basic but OK. Breakfast is super and very good. Extreme helpful and friendly personnel.

In such a lovely position but you feel kind of neglected once youve checked in. That was the only time we saw a member of staff, no scope to leave bags in storage at end of stay and room size fit 1 not 2. When you need staff at 6/7am its no good if no-ones around til 8am/9am. Lovely spot but pretty lousey otherwise gutted to say

Had meer verwacht dat ik de sfeer van een gevangenis weer zou zien. Maar had een kleine kamer op zolder. Matig ontbijt. Wel mooie locatie. Op loopafstand veel kroegjes en restaurantjes.

Also es ist ein ehemaliges Gefängnis und die Zelle (bzw das Zimmer) ist sehr klein. Es steht nur ein Bett, ein kleiner hocker im Zimmer. Dazu noch eine kleine mit schiebetür abgetrennte Nasszelle. Es ist eine Erfahrung wert, aber für einen langen Aufenthalt nicht zu empfehlen. Es ist sehr hellhörig, ich habe alles gehört was meine Nachbarn gesagt haben, aber ich kann ja kein Holländisch.
