My stay at this hotel was pleasant overall. The room had a nice view of the castle and was kept clean, but the price could have been more competitive. The service was satisfactory with good housekeeping and laundry. The location, right near the train station, made it very convenient for exploring the area, although more dining options nearby would have been appreciated.

The hotel is so close to the train station that perhaps all sides catch the noise, but the rooms with views of the castle and huge beds are fantastic. The housekeeping service could use a little improvement, but the overall value for money is great.
