When we walked in to check in the ladies at the desk were talking. I walked up to the kiosk that you have to do everything on and it was not pulling my name up. When I asked for help I kind of got that they were annoyed I asked for help. We got to our room as though the bed is comfy and our view was great… the floors had so many stains, the bathroom was dirty. We didn’t spend much time in the room because of this.

Stayed for 2 nights trip with friends. Friendly staff, clean modern hotel. Triple room had 2 single beds but plenty of room. Paid for hotel breakfast each morning which was good selection and worth the money if you fill up your plate. Had been warned that the area was a little dodgy next but didn’t experience any issues, a couple minutes walk from the centre of town and handy for getting around.

We stayed 3 nights in room 405 and the room was really large and spacious but the windows do not have a tight seal and 7am every morning we were there there was some alarm nearby that went off and woke us up and wasnt just a quick alarm it was 12 minutes the first day, 11 minutes the second day and 10 minutes the third. It was loud and annoying and when i brought it up to the front desk 2 mornings they just said we are in a city we cant help it and had no idea where it came from and said they never heard it and no one else complained. So clearly we had the room with bad windows or something and yes we went around and double checked they were all shut. The staff didn't care at all that we did not get 1 full mornings sleep. So dont stay in room 405 or you risk an unwanted 7am wakeup. We also ate in the restaurant the first night, the service was horrible. They told us to sit where ever we wanted so we sat by the window and no server ever came to take our order we had to go to the bar to order, but they were serving the other side of the restaurant at the table. They brought the drinks and food then never saw them again. My husband had the fish and chips and i had the spaghetti arabiata. The fish and chips were good, fries nice and crispy but the spaghetti was aweful. The sauce was watery and the noodles were over cooked. The server also said they forgot about us so after the food came they never checked on us again. I told them about the pasta and they took it off the bill.

I have the say the staff at this hotel were very nice and helpful I had hurt my leg a few days before the trip and hurt my self leaving the plane at Cork airport so by the time a arrived I wasn’t walking well and the staff made me feel as comfortable as possible and made sure to ask how I was doing on my last day. The breakfast was lovely and we made good use of the swimming pool.
