We had an unpleasant stay at this hotel. First off, the rooms are very dingy, they could use a lot of updating, which I think can be done without losing the integrity of the castle. The towels and bed sheets were stained and old. The bathroom sink and toilet kept backing up. There was no AC in our room. When I asked why the wifi wasn’t working, I was told by the receptionist that the internet doesn’t work in the bedrooms - not sure why that is?? And to top it off, the dining room tablecloths were very dirty as well. When I was given our bill for our breakfast, we were overcharged (not sure if intentional or not), so make sure you double check your bill if you do eat there.

The castle stay is an experience everyone should try at least once. I love the scenery, the staff was very nice and professional, I loved seeing all kinds of different people and tourist stopping to take pictures and interacting with guests, staying in the castle takes you back to old times and how people used to live.

The property from the OUTSIDE is amazing! Beautiful to say the least, as soon as we arrived inside the room. Smelled like mold, the towels were not white.. they were almost gray of how old and stained they were. The bed sheets were not laundered, the floor hadn’t been swept for days if that. Very poor conditions on the inside of the building. The walls are stained to say the least! Horrible experience! I would spend my money at another hotel and not here. I been to more rural areas with better hotels than this. Dissatisfied!
