CouplandOrmside Ringwork附近的飯店

I spent £240 for the room and £15 for breakfast at Red Clifford Rooms. Honestly, the place is very old—but that’s the charm! I don’t think people should blame it for being old, because at least there was no odd odour, which I really appreciated. The whole building was quiet and spooky, and the bathroom was just one step into the corridor… pitch dark and scary—but that’s exactly what I wanted! Breakfast was fair. I felt like I was paying £15 more for the room decoration and Downton Abbey vibes rather than the food itself. Haha, it really made me feel like Lady Sybil walking around the castle. Other details: • The castle was sold 2 years ago by Mr. Edward Nightaglr (so maybe the current owner doesn’t really care? I don’t know). • The bathroom is newly renovated, featuring a classic-style bathtub. Hot water worked perfectly. • No air-conditioning during the heatwave—it was a bit hot, but fair enough. I kept persuading myself: “Taya Yaya, it’s a Norman castle!” 我花了 £240 住宿，加上 £15 早餐。 老實講，地方確實非常舊，但這正正就是它的特色！舊歸舊，至少完全沒有怪味，這點我非常欣賞。整棟城堡非常安靜，而且帶點「陰森森」的氣氛。 浴室離房間只有一步之隔，但一走出走廊就是黑漆漆的，嚇到我心跳加速——不過其實這正是我想要的感覺！ 早餐一般，感覺 £15 主要是付了城堡的裝飾和「唐頓莊園」的氛圍。哈哈，走在裡面真的好像自己變成了 Sybil 小姐。 至於員工服務方面，感覺有點兩極。早上的員工不是無禮，但感覺還未睡醒，完全沒有熱情。如果他可以親切一點，我會直接給 9分。 相反 員工Richard 非常出色！即使晚上10點我才辦入住，他依然熱情十足，還帶我參觀城堡，跟我聊天，讓我感覺很有家的味道。如果不是因為他，這間酒店我可能只會給 4–5分。真的很希望城堡能多請一些像他這樣的員工。 其他細節： • 城堡兩年前由 Edward Nightagle 先生出售，現任業主可能沒怎麼上心？我不太清楚。 • 浴室是新裝修，熱水非常充足。 • 遇上熱浪，房間沒有冷氣，有點熱，但我安慰自己：「唉呀呀，這可是 Norman 城堡啊！」 總結：陰森森，但難忘的體驗 👻
