“Great Value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2011

Rooms were large, nice, and clean. Bed was good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was large and tasty. Very good downtown location within walking distance to many restaurants, pubs and shopping. Overall a great experience.

“Great staff: soooo helpful!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2011

We arrived soaked from a hard trek across the mountains. Kay and the others set about getting us dry by cranking the heating up and providng an iron: Kay even offered to put all our clothes in the tumble drier! There was alovely atmosphere in the bar, with live music, good food and much joviality. My boarding pass had got soaked and was tattered, so they helped me print a fresh one! Irish hospitality? Maybe, or just lovely people making you feel good.
