Great staff and location, extremely loud
Pros: The staff were all very nice and helpful! The location was excellent, very walkable to all sights. Cons: This place has a "party hostel" vibe. The bar on the corner is LOUD until after 3 am. Then the staff cleans up... so it's loud thumping music and sports til 3, then bottles / glass / what have you being tossed into dumpsters til after dawn. Also we heard what sounded like cleaning carts in the hallways late at night.....odd time to clean if that's what that was. We did not get one good night's sleep our whole trip. If you are a party person, this place is perfect. If you want to

Pros: Friendly casual hotel, had relaxed mixted guests (young, old, family), great location for accessing the castle
Pros: Friendly casual hotel, had relaxed mixted guests (young, old, family), great location for accessing the castle. Breakfast was good (not included by default, but can be added). Cons: No parking, but I expect most guests wouldn't choose to arrive by car, we only did because of disability. (We used pre-bookabke ParkBee Radisson Blue parking 5min walk away which is a decent solution).
