Fantastic location alongside the lake and walking distance to old city centre of Hoorn. Also, fun to say you stayed in a former prison! The staff was wonderful! We visited for Ironman 70.3 Westfriesland and as participants this is highly recommended location.

My friend had broken her arm and we needed to stay somewhere for the nigh so the staff were extra attentive and accommodating to our situation. It really saved us.
