I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. Each staff member is friendly, kind, and helpful. A generous breakfast was included, and they accomodated me by serving me before hours. Housekeeping tidied my room between check in/out. Castletown Hotel is a great place to stay!
Nice stay, comfortable / toasty / quiet room, Wi-Fi occasionally a bit iffy but not a major issue, really friendly & helpful staff, enough parking & good food options (including breakfast), will definitely use again
