The property has tremendous potential but the rooms need complete refurbishing. The lingering odor of sewage in the bathroom, the shower head is terrible. Screens are ripped. AC barely functional. One outlet for the entire room. Exposed wires limited breakfast no dinner option. Hard to find service at night

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.
