Very good

Staff were nice and welcoming. The room was good and clean. There were a lot of things to do in the evening in the area and inside. Would come back. People were respectful and kind.
Lively, a short walk from plenty to do and see, as well as a lovely staff members. I appreciate everyone at reception and the bar/cafe for their patience with me on my first solo trip out of the U.S. Ill be sure to come back to the Generator the next time Im in Ireland. (And I promise i wont have as many misshaps next time)
