6/10 Good

Brilliant staff and food, pool was just ok

Staff and service was great the down fall was the small family rooms with one small window that could not open the full way there was a fan in the room but didn’t really help with the heat.the pool is very small no kids pool as advertised, there is a fitness class on every morning from 9-10 am which take over the pool but guest are not informed of this before hand which means guests can’t really access the pool till after 10 am and are left waiting at the side of the pool if you don’t know this. Lockers in dressing rooms were broken was had to find one that locked.

Friendly staff. Really good value. Spacious room. Fantastic breakfast buffet. Beds a bit soft for my preference. A few things overlooked in room cleaning. Bathroom was spotless. Access to a great leisure centre.

10/10 Exceptional

Really large rooms, comfortable beds, great fitness facilities and lovely breakfast. Next door to a huge Dunnes and other convenient stores. A bit of a walk from the town centre but a great option if you’re exploring the area. North Americans will appreciate the large rooms and easy parking!

Our hotel experience

The hotel staff were excellent. The food was very good. The room was comfortable (accessible room) but could do with refresh. The carpet was quite stained in places, the tiles on floor of shower were sharp around the drain, the shower taps were roughly fixed to shower wall and very difficult to turn off, there was no air-conditioning in bedroom, no safe, and key card kept failing. The hotel also offered an indoor pool. However, it was always so busy as the hotel opens it up to non - residents. It was mainly full of children so not relaxing.

Communication is terrible

Communication prior to checking in was NON EXISTENT. I messaged via the booking app ( no response), I emailed ( no response), I rang and the call was eventually answered by a young man who couldnt help at all as he was "only in the reservation office".

Staff was extremely friendly and the food was very good. The location was very easy to find with plenty of parking.
