Great, simple place to stay. Just be mindful that it's an old castle, so the amenities are older as well. Overall, it was a great and unique experience and I really enjoyed my stay.

This room had to be the worst room I’ve ever booked. Room is very old and dirty. When we got to the room the housekeeper was still in there cleaning states she hasn’t made our bed yet and she’ll be back. Mold in the bathroom shower and sink. Trash was left in the room. Air conditioning was leaking water called front desk several times no one answered so we immediately checked out of our 2 night stay and book a different hotel in town. The idea of a castle was cool but it was so ran down inside. This place has so much potential but they have failed it. Blanket on the bed was ripped towels were gray no amenities. By far the worst hotel I’ve ever booked!

This was, without question, the most unsanitary and unsafe hotel experience I have ever had. I have stayed in roadside motels that were in far better condition than this property. The room was in extremely poor condition. The towels, which appeared to have once been white, were gray, stained, and full of holes. Towel racks were rusted, there was visible mold throughout the room, and hair was scattered across the shower floor upon arrival. The toilet was filthy, with apparent fecal residue on and around the seat and bowl. The bed linens were dirty and contained debris that felt like dirt or sand. Several amenities were broken, including the hair dryer, room phone, and in-room safe. The property also appeared to lack adequate security. We had no hot water during our stay, and after showering, I developed a skin rash. On our first morning, we woke up to find vomit outside our door, which remained there for several hours before being cleaned up. When I asked the front desk for a refund so we could check out early, I was told refunds were against hotel policy. Instead, we were moved to another room that was just as unacceptable. In that room, the shower door would not close because it was stuck due to heavy mold and rust buildup. The air quality was so poor that it was difficult to breathe comfortably. To make matters worse, I was informed that the front desk is only staffed from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. because it is considered unsafe for employees to remain on the property.

This place is badly in need of repairs. Our room walls were peeling paint and it reeked of dampness. The bed, bedding, and all furniture was super old including the box TV (90s?).The humidity smell was bad and our room had no window to open. Bathroom entirely was in bad shape and barely had water come out of shower along with counter with sink was broken and dirty. The room we got should have never been rented out. Also the place is haunted. Had a horrible night. Got there late and stayed a few hours only but almost left 10 min in. Decided to stay only because of how late it was. They should just turn it into a museum. Place looks magical from the outside don’t fall for it. Just visit during the day.

DO NOT STAY HERE! - ¡NO SE QUEDEN AQUÍ! We made our reservation for 2-nights thinking we were giving our son a one in a life time experience, staying in a “castle”. When we arrived and received our rooms they were in very poor conditions and seemed to need dusting. We tolerated that, but then in the afternoon when my husband tried to shower there was NO hot water. My husband went to reception to try and get the issue resolved and discovered that the only person working was the receptionist. She informed us that the owner and the maintenance person who could turn the hot water on were at a town party and was unsure when they would return. She “upgraded” our rooms, which were still questionable. But the maintenance person was still a no show. When my husband went to speak to the receptionist again he overheard another customer complain about being without hot water for 2 days. At that point we decided to leave and look for another place to stay. Also, my confirmation charge was $211.68 and the hotel tried charging $333! I disputed the charge with my card company! Please be careful when booking here!

El hotel es muy bonito, el Castillo es muy impresionante. Desafortunadamente todo lo demás es muy malo, no hay agua caliente, el check-in es supuestamente a las 3pm pero no te entregan a tiempo. hay muy poco personal, Los muebles son muy antiguos. Te cobran antes de llegar. El personal de limpieza hace lo que puede con mínimos recursos, no recomiendo de ninguna manera que se hospeden ahí. Si recomiendo que visiten el lugar para recorrerlo y tomar buenas fotos.

La arquitectura es muy bonita sin embargo deja muuuucho que desear. Las habitaciones si, están viejas perl fuera de eso, esta. Descuidadisimas!! No teníamos agua caliente para bañarnos, no había secadora, no hay teléfono en los cuartos para comunicarte a recepción y ni siquiera teníamos ni toallas, el papel en el piso porque el dispensador no servía, nuestra habiatacion tenía únicamente 1 foco en una lámpara por lo tanto, estaba muy oscuro. La cama parecía de agua porque todo te hundías y te movías a parte de que rechinaba muchísimo. El control de la TV ni quisiera tenia. U la tapita en donde van las pilas 🤧 El piso de madera todo levantado. Nos hospedamos porque teníamos una boda y como mencioné, no había ni toallas y cuando nos dieron las toallas, de verdad que parecían las que pones cuando te sales de bañar porque estaban suuuuoer chiquitas…. La verdad el hotel es solo la fama del castillo, no lo eecomiendo para nada.

El hotel está muy bonito por fuera, la historia y leyendas del mismo son muy interesantes y hasta cierto punto ciertas, pero....... El personal muy grosero, ni los buenos días, buenas tardes, buenas noches, nos respondieron, ¡¡¡¡NO HABIA PAPAEL DE BAÑO EN LOS SANITARIOS!!!! y nos vieron que salimos a comprar y nadie dijo nada. Las toallas rotas y viejas, las camas estaban sucias y las almohadas estaban sucias, manchadas y olían feo, se les comento la situación, ¡¡¡¡¡pero dijeron que tenían mucha gente y que casi casi era lo que había!!!!! Como experiencia y por la anécdota, nos hospedamos ahi, PERO NO VUELVE A PASAR!!!!! PESIMA EXPERIENCIA
