Excellent hotel in Ennis
Pros:

The room was excellent and bed was very comfortable. Also, the walk in shower was very nice. We played cards in Poets Corner Pub, and the breakfast was fantastic. Recommend confirming breakfast and service hours at check-in. The hotel is near shopping and restaurants. I think Fish
