The location of the hotel couldn’t have been better! We could easily access public transportation or walk wherever we needed to go from this site. The bed was very comfortable and the showers were hot and strong.. just what we needed after a day of travel.

Breakfast venue is great, Room was windowless but spacious and bed comfortable. The one downside is that there is no drive up check in or parking for cars. Castle parking is 500m+ away.
