Staff was very great at check in. Hotel is clean. The air conditioner does not cool the room (#207). I called to inform of the problem and the staff was very understanding. They did a reset from their end and it appeared to work a little better but still not cooling the room com2rpletely. Also tried to use the pool, which was listed in the room information book as being open untkl 9pm, but when we showed up at 8:30 we were told they closed at 8pm.

dodgy bathroom door handle made us nervous that one of the kids might be locked in. Otherwise, worked as a perfect home base for us as we drove around and explored Ireland. The only other negative is while the beds were roomy enough for the five of us, the lack of a seating area and table made it messy to carry out and eat food in the room. The lack of a fridge or microwave further limited those options. Location is fantastic. Food and drink at Bia were excellent. Is the lounge ever open? It wasn’t Amy time we tried to go in.

Not as advertised
The hours given for the fitness room were wrong because the next day was a weekend. As a result, I was up unnecessarily early. And then it didn’t open “an hour later.” Also, the room was advertised as air conditioned, but it didn’t get below 22 degrees.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The food was poor and very expensive. Evening meal used frozen vegetables. Very limited on vegetarian option. Very poor service for breakfast. Didn’t bring us tea and coffee following request, and got it wrong. Cooked breakfast limited and cold, asked for baked beans and the waiter didn’t understand my request, never got what I asked for again. The view from our bedroom window looked like a rubbish tip. Large rusting pieces of metal. Smashed plant pots with dead plants and old plastic bags. The cost of the hotel was expensive when compared to other 4 star hotels that we stayed in during our Irish holiday. We complained to the manager about these issues, but she didn’t act on our complaints. This hotel definitely doesn’t deserve a 4 star rating, at best a 3, but I would give it 2 star rating!

Hotel is dated, shabby. Public areas are not particularly clean. Dirty carpets on hallways, fixtures and fittings are shabby and need replacing. Entrance not very welcoming - hard to spot where the entrance into the hotel was. Kettle in the room was leaking and caused the trip switches to short. Smoke alarm in the room was covered with a plastic bag - serious breach of fire regulations. We removed the bag covering the detector. Room overlooked a dilapidated old rooftop garden that was slowly rotting and falling apart - not very pleasant to look at. Certainly not to 4* standard. Hotel could use a complete overhaul and some investment. I wouldn’t return.
