“The hotel's location next to the Castle Keep underscores its unique position in the city. I noted the rooftop bar, ABOVE, promises views that are hard to beat, though some modern updates may be in order in the guest rooms. It seems well-suited for events, especially weddings, with dedicated planning, but I believe the serviced apartments make it a strong choice for longer stays.”

the room seemed a bit neglected, frankly. there was some mold on the shower screen, which i found rather off-putting. also, the dark wood furniture collected dust, not a great look. honestly, it could use a good refresh.

the location was convenient. it was a short walk to the town centre. the main rail station was also nearby. i found the on-site parking particularly useful.

the room felt a bit outdated. i noticed the bathroom quality was below expectations. it didn't quite match the price i paid. i stayed in a double room.

The staff was friendly, but the room felt smaller than expected. I found the bed quite uncomfortable. It was too firm for my liking. the noise from outside was noticeable, even late at night. The noise insulation needs improvement!
