Both nights we stayed there was a lot of noise. The first night (Sat) shouting in the corridor,3am, Sunday night someone continually knocking on one of the doors around 2am. The bathroom I thought was spotless until I put a wet towel over the top, a load of hair floated down. The bed wasn’t made properly as the bottom sheet was too small and kept slipping down, it didn’t look too white either. The breakfast and dining were lovely and so were the staff.

Billed as the oldest hotel in Ireland (est. 1608), the property does not reflect its age. It is in good shape, conveniently located, with nice facilities and a nice staff. The pub had live music and a rollicking scene on a Monday night. I’d stay there again.
