Joanna

United Kingdom, April 2024

7.0/10

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The shared bathroom was clean, but the lack of a cooked breakfast was disappointing. The room I stayed in was spacious but extremely cold, a situation made worse by a window that wouldn't close. The service was friendly, but we were charged for parking despite the website indicating it was free.

7.8/10

The accommodation is not close to the city centre, but it is an easy bus ride away with good cafes and restaurants nearby. The rooms were small and it was a bit challenging to store all our luggage and clothes, but there was a small sink with hot and cold running water in the room. The service was outstanding with a hospitable host who even moved our car and put money in the meter while we were out. Facilities are basic but sufficient for a comfortable stay.

The hotel is located not far from the city center and near the castle, with friendly and helpful hosts offering a great breakfast. However, some cleanliness issues were noted with previous guests' clothes left in the drawers and minimalistic dining options.

Rooms

I stayed in a room at the very top of the house, which was a satisfactory size with a small en-suite. It was also stifling hot, but I found the shared bathroom clean enough.

The location was good, not far from the city center by bus, about a 20-25 minute walk to town, and conveniently near the castle. However, there were some cleanliness issues with clothes left in the drawers.

Dining

The dining experience was a mix - lovely breakfast with the usual cereals and yogurt, as well as a cooked breakfast to order, but I noticed that some of the food seemed to be made with cheaper ingredients despite being included in the price.

I found the facilities to be basic with no effort to make the dining area look nice or fresh. However, complimentary bread was a nice touch.

7.2/10

The room we stayed in was large but very cold due to a permanently open window that couldn't be shut; we had to get in bed to stay warm. The host wasn't able to warm up the room effectively despite our requests. However, the rooms are cozy and clean overall.
