We enjoyed spending time as a family at the pool. It was a neat pool.
Our request for two rooms next to each other was not granted on our first night. It took us asking for it to be rectified and that wasn't until the next day.

The restaurant staff and the Irish band were fantastic
Pool was misleading. Didn't realize it was shared with a gym and pretty much laps only. Not good for family with kids.

It was located centrally and the room was clean. Our kids loved the swimming pool in the leisure centre. Parking is located right outside the leisure centre. Breakfast was alright.
The hotel is old, carpet everywhere and it smelled funny.

It was close to restaurants and shops in the village. The room was spotless and newly updated. Breakfast was delicious and offered many option, all good!
The parking lot was behind the hotel, which has no entry except the front. This required hauling our luggage a good distance. When we reached our room it was an oven! The radiator had been on high heat all day, and required help to turn it off. We had to leave the stifling heat until it cooled off. Our chief complaint was that the beds were very basic and uncomfortable. Neither of us slept well.

The location was very good within walking distance of shops, restaurants, pubs, and a grocery store. Hot shower. Good flushing toilet. Elevator works reliably.
The parking was a longer walk from the hotel than I expected, like a walk around the block. No shortcut through the hotel to the parking lot. The room was very small and hot. No air conditioning. Had to use a provided fan. The shower was small, but adequate. The place needs updating.

Our room was on the first floor and catered for wheelchair access. The room was spacious with a large shower.
Would have liked to see the breakfast room and bar updated. Very old fashioned decor. The breakfast lacked vegetarian options. The bar menu also had few vegetarian options.

In the middle of town. Good room eventually
Checked in to a room with a small window above the bed. Felt very claustrophobic no outlook. Said it in passing to reception and they moved us to a great room looking over the street. No noise as they had double glazing so I was impressed Breakfast was a bit chaotic but food ok.

Poor
room was clean but very small, very noisy not sure why it sounded like a boiler.
,Breakfast was very basic and extra. Room very noisy and small and basic for the price. Toilets in reception area were an utter disgrace, overflowing bins with soiled tissues etc and nothing done about it for over 24 hours even after complaints made.

Wonderful
Breakfast was lovely. I truly appreciated having my coffee served very soon after arriving. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The dinners were good. The music on Thursday night was great! It was the only night during our two weeks in Ireland that we were treated to Irish music.
We were very satisfied with our stay. I can't think of anything that we didn't like.
