I would rather stay at Norman Bates motel….
Pros:

Do yourself a favour and look elsewhere. This is a genuine and honest review. This has to be one of the worst rooms that I have ever stayed in. First, you have a series of gate codes which starts at the side of the pub, which is dark and dingy. Next you have to go up the metal fire exit steps, which are slippery when wet. Do not even consider booking if you have mobility issues or small children. Then you have a different code for the first door, when you get through that there is yet another code for the room door. Once you have managed all of that, you realise you have no toilet or shower in your room and have to wander around in the shared hallway in the middle of the night if you need the toilet…. However this is not even the worst of it….

Cons:

What the worst part of this very basic, mishmash of furniture room is the horrendously loud, thumping music (DJ’s and decks on the weekend) - I kid you not, it is horrendous and you will not even be able to hear the television in the room. - some reviews mention ear plugs- well I wasn’t even offered them. It is really bad and if you have any sense, you will avoid this accommodation like the plague. I would not return here even if it was free.

Peaceful, quiet, calm and harmonious
Pros:

For a room that size the price was good, very good facilities and have to say it was better then many hotels which are much more pricey

Cons:

All was good except maybe some wait and pepper would have been a good addition

Fantastic, stayed for a gig at the castle, would look to return if visiting the area again
Pros:

Easy to find, great communication from the staff (didn’t actually meet anyone in person!), lovely room with comfortable beds and the shared toilet/bathroom facilities were spotless

Cons:

The hotel can’t manage who walks outside in the early hours so late night revellers do disrupt your sleep but the hotel actually provided foam earplugs so they are well aware but cannot manage the general public outside.

I would never stay at this property again.
Pros:

The room was clean

Cons:

The room was not easy accessible as you had to climb the steel fire escape staircase the key was located in a coded wall Safe numbers were difficult to see in the dark.
Rooms located directly above the bar which was very noisy Friday Saturday night until 3.30am early hours of Sunday morning not only loud music but a lot of shouting and arguing in the street outside when it was kicking out time
!! managed to fall asleep approximately 4 am then we were woken up by the fire alarm continuously going off 6.30am so we decided to leave the property as soon as possible.
I wouldn’t recommend this property to anyone unless they were partying in the bar below.
The bathroom was separate from the room which was accessed by a hallway which was covered by CCTV cameras and made you feel uneasy whilst walking to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
The property advertises that it has car parking there was not any parking.
