My cup of tea

We had a very good nights sleep in excellent quality beds and bedwear! We appreciated that radiators worked very quick to warm up the room in the morning and the possibility to have a cup of tea in the room. The windows are thick so we heard no noice whatsoever and talking about the back side of the hotel; the parking was free during the weekend. What we missed was schampoo in the shower, we are used to have toiletry included in hotels.
The hall area - you can tell it’s been a prison.
Beds are high and the are curtains to avoid being seen from outside.
You get two “cells”; one for the bed and the other for shower and a sitting area.

Staff not very helpful, I asked for extra pillows and a duvet at reception, never arrived to my room. The window next to the bed has not properly sealed air comes in to the room. I could felt the air coming directly to my face while sleeping even though I had the blind down. Also I had go and request cleaning my room as it was not cleaned, I has the room cleaning tag hanging at the handle door.

Reception staff were helpful. This is a converted prison and so quirkily interesting. The bed was fine and the room was spacious. However I couldn’t find any light switches other than at the door. Only way to turn off the lights was to remove the card key from its slot. Sink only had cold water so impossible to shave.

The hotel is an old prison and has a certain something about it. The rooms on the ground floor face the car park and are therefore noisy

Free parking is hard to get in Alkmaar, but from 17:00-9:00 it is free at the public parking next to the hotel (before passing the barrier) when you have the” pay by phone “ app you can easily pay if you need a bit longer. Enter through the Westerweg.

Not to be recommended

I am disappointed. The beds are sagging, even the topper doesn't help, I woke up every morning with back pain. The room is dirty, dusty, dirty shower, coffee machine with mold, even the coffee cups were not properly washed. Windowblind broken, cannot be closed completely. Noisy, doors in the hallway slamming shut, conversations in the hallway hearable even in bed. Towel worn down with hole in the middle.

Vriendelijk personeel maar de kamer had overal los behang gebladderd plafonds. Kan wel een update gebruiken. Brandalarm in de nacht iedereen naar buiten Totaal geen communicatie wat er aan de hand was. Uiteindelijk stopte het alarm en iedereen ging maar weer nasr binnen zonder dat we wisten wat er aan de hand was. Erg slordig

We zaten in het Fletcher hotel “De Gevangenis” in Alkmaar. Een oude gevangenis dus. Komen we op de kamer, kan er geen raam open, airco doet het niet, geen ventilator (de medewerker nog op zoek) en geen vervangende kamer! Wel klantvriendelijk, maar zeker niet klantgericht!
