Alison

The property was super convenient to the castle with parking and a restaurant on the property, so that was a plus. The staff was all really nice accommodating. The reason for a 4 star review is the shower had what appeared to be mold in it.

Hotel was lovely and staff were very helpful. Only slight negative was bathroom being slightly dated and shower control proving difficult to turn off, i.e., water continued to drip.
