Pros, The property is by the castle and they tell you there is no elevator so it is a challenge for older people to climb stairs

Be prepared for lots of stairs (especially if handling heavy luggage), however the property does give ample warning. Also minimal bathroom countertop space and limited space to put luggage in room. Parking was available, however we did have to park down at the end of the block and around the corner at times, but very doable. The staff was very friendly & accommodating and rooms/property were clean and inviting. It was actually kinda nice to be staying in a residential neighborhood (with a beautiful big castle literally in the backyard).

I don’t usually complain, but I Was not impressed that I had to park three blocks away to stay here, the ad said parking onsite and on street. It did not mention that people had to compete with residents for a parking spot! Could not even bring my luggage because it was far away and I couldn’t carry it that far. Then we get there and my room is up two flights of stairs, which for someone with muscle issues wasn’t great. I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and was greeted by a big spider walking across my foot. The bathroom floor was dirty. The internet didn’t work which was not convenient at all as there was no tv in our room either. The place was nicely decorated, the bed was comfortable but the lack of parking on site and stairs were very inconvenient.

We loved the house, very interesting history and so close to the castle! It was very comfortable and the staff exceptional. I suggest an improvement to the coffee available; maybe a better coffee machine in the lounge. It's a great facility for guests and very welcome. Nice to talk with other guests!
