Hallway lights had 1 out of 5 working. That together with the dark blue paint made the hallways dark and creepy. Only one small elevator. Friendly staff

Nice Hotel

Hotel is very clean and has a really nice bar area. The room itself was also very nice. I just wish they had Air conditioning cause it was warm outside. Bed was comfy for a hotel bed. Would recommend.

High-end feel without the price. Front desk personnel were friendly & helpful. Biggest issue, which is the case with most hotels in Ireland was the lack of air conditioning. Opening a window doesn’t offer much relief when there is no way to create circulation. Would suggest having fans in the room to help guests not be so uncomfortable. Or just spend the money & install something like wall air conditioner in each room. Overall nice hotel though.
