Disliked: Amenities
La habitación en general bien, sugiero más mantenimiento a los baños, en ratos hay muy mal olor del desagüe, la regadera ya está un poco tapada por el sarro y en las noches no caía el agua muy caliente. Nunca pudimos conectarnos al internet, la señal es muy bajo y en la actualidad es indispensable la red y sugiero tener al menos una máquina dispensadora de cafe en la entrada, así como algunos productos de uso básico. El día 25 de diciembre la srita. Que le tocó estar en la recepción la encontramos dormida en la mañana y tuvimos que despertarla para solicitarle un taxi, además de ser poco atenta en la atención personal y vía telefónica. La presencia y la amabilidad es muy importante para el huésped. Pero en general fue una gran estancia. Gracias!

Muy buen exterior sin embargo las habitaciones están demasiado rusticas, incómodas y austeras. Horrible interior, muebles viejos y camas durísimas. Los empleados no sabes informar de la historia del castillo. Jamás vuelvo. Pague 3 noches y solo me quedé una, de lo feo e incómodo que se siente y está todo.
