the location is really great i could walk to everything i wanted to see. the room was so clean and i definitely felt comfortable. the staff was genuinely friendly and handled requests quickly. it created a super atmosphere.
i must say the room itself was quite basic. the walls were paper thin and it was a bit noisy. i probably would not stay there again because of the noise issues.

The bedroom was great. It was perfect for our little trip. i had plenty of space to move around. the hotel is beautiful and always clean. It is also tidy.
The website said breakfast was included, but it wasn't, frustrating. also, the restaurant staff weren't very friendly. That didn't help the overall vibe.

mediocre stay with some notable issues

central locationextractor fan noisedusty carpet
the location was central and convenient for exploring the area.
The room was quite noisy. I could clearly hear the extractor fans from the kitchens from early morning until late at night. the carpets throughout the hallways had a strong, dusty smell. it felt unhygienic and certainly detracted from the overall experience.

The bedroom was perfect for our trip. i found there was plenty of space to move around. It was clean. the staff are cute and helpful, especially daniel at reception. grainne and paul served breakfast, providing excellent service. the breakfast experience was delicious, with high quality foods cooked well.
The corridors to the rooms felt a bit old. my room was at the back of the hotel. The window looked out onto a run down building, so i had to close the curtains. it was noisy at night.
