Great location and amazing view of Boldt castle
Great location and amazing view. Clean and easy to access all the great stuff. Definitely looked like they attempted to renovate the place, but def missed some details. Like rust around the frame of that ceiling tiles. People was definitely great during check in, but the house keeping was okay. Did basic cleaning and layout the sheets, but didn’t even fluff the pillow or tuck the sheets. Maybe it’s just me being picky but never seen that jot done before.
