Great location for bus and trains. Staff are excellent and we received a friendly response from Lisa when we checked in. She was informative and helpful. Evening meal was delicious and presented very well. We stayed 6 days and breakfast buffet was delicious and plenty of choices. Only comment was there is no decaf coffee. However this was not a big issue due to the variety of teas available - our favourite was ginger and honey black tea. The cost of the accommodation is very reasonable and I would recommend it to others. I would certainly return without hesitation.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I loved it. The building is about 150 years old, although there are modern conveniences. The doors are big and heavy, the floors are wide plank bare wood, the stairs are stone or concrete, but the feeling is of the 1870s. The staff were very nice although reception was not always manned. Breakfast was good. The location is excellent for the train or bus or to tour the castle or the museum. Very central. I would go back.

We didnt get a chance to stay in the place at all, yet we were charged the full price. The Reception and the hotel shuts down at 8 PM and there was a number posted on the entrance. When I called, no one picked up. Ended up looking for another hotel at 10:30 PM. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PROPERTY.
