"Good location and breakfast"

8.0

Very nice staff, great location, good bathroom, good beds, large room, excellent and varied breakfast with lots of fresh fruit.

Such a strange and disturbing paint job in the room. Live music in the bar is a bit noisy — the hotel does their best with this by providing ear plugs and recommending leaving the excellent air conditioning running at night.

"Very satisfied!"

8.0

Loved the location! A street over from “shop street” and the staff was amazing! Bathroom hot water temp and pressure was fabulous!

My only suggestions for improvement: Room temp/air was stuffy, need better air flow. Bed pillows very hard and plastic like. TV did not have any features to cast from smart phone.

"My favorite stay in Ireland, and the best value."

10.0

The ambience of the hotel was exceptional. It was well kept and very historical. The room was spacious and very clean. Even when I requested no maid service on the second day, the staff left bottled water at my door. The breakfast included with the room was exceptional. The staff was friendly and helpful.

It was difficult to figure out how the electrical outlets worked, what switches operated which lights or outlets.
