10/10 Excellent
"Staying at this hotel was an incredible and unique experience! The way the old prison has been transformed into a modern hotel is absolutely brilliant. The historic atmosphere is preserved perfectly, and the clean rooms are very comfortable. The staff is clearly understaffed and overwhelmed with duties, but they work incredibly hard and do their absolute best to keep the atmosphere and everything else perfect. Both the breakfast and parking options were excellent. Highly recommended!"

"the room was a larger American size hotel room with clean large bathrooms and huge bed. The carpet and sofa were moderately used but that is expected in a touristy spot that has high utilization. We had a difficult time finding a on-demand taxi or bus(does not come often) so it is about a 3/4 mile walk to the train station . If you plan on walking\biking a lot every where and to Texel island, this is a good hotel(even with the park on the north side) to launch from. BTW; the lunch and soup were good here."
