I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is good in the center of Castleisland, making it easy to explore the area. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, which made my stay more enjoyable. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, especially the limited choices at dinner. The room was clean but felt quite outdated, and I think it could benefit from some modernization.
