disappointing, will not be staying there again.
Pros:

breakfast itself was good. however, the hotel advertises itself as dog friendly. In reality it is dog "separate" as an obviously make-shift dining room is set aside for those with dogs to eat breakfast. The staff have to make a special journey to serve people with dogs and, all in all, those with dogs are made to feel unwelcome.
The room we were given had an horrendous outlook into an inner courtyard containing all the extraction ducts from the kitchen. Meaning the only ventilation available was the output from the kitchens. I'm not sure whether this was a consequence of a "Booking.com" booking or a "dog-friendly" booking.

Cons:

Pros:

De locatie en de gemeenschappelijke ruimtes. Het personeel is super vriendelijk

Cons:

De kamer : tapijt met vlekken en gescheurd gordijn. De badkamer : vochtvlekken aan het plafond met afgebladerde verf, vuile verlichting, heel oude lavabo zonder enige plek voor toilettas, douche met oude douchekop zonder waterdruk
Echt niet de prijs van 200€ per nacht waard!,

Would not recommend or stay again
Pros:

The location

Cons:

It looked like we were in a brewery with the view outside of the window, kegs everywhere, rusty ladder, towel thrown out of a window, carpet had several dirty patches, the shower was very poor, just a trickle of water and there were 2 lights not working and one with no light shade in the bathroom, very poor quality room for what we were charged for it. The carpark for the hotel is certainly not big enough for the amount of rooms that they have. The lift was out of order on our arrival day so we had to carry our heavy luggage up 2 flights of stairs.

Pros:

Hyggelig personale, veldig sentralt. Koselig pub og spiseområde

Cons:

Veldig harde og ukomfortable senger. Også altfor få parkeringsplasser for et såpass stort hotell

Affascinante location
Pros:

Posizione eccellente in una struttura retrò di pregio. Ottima la cena. Personale molto disponibile.

Cons:

La stanza non era perfettamente pulita e gli arredi troppo datati. Per usare la doccia senza ustionarsi bisogna essere ingegneri idraulici.

Statig hotel in gezellig kustplaatsje.
Pros:

Mooi chic oud hotel in leuk stadje aan het strand. Ideaal gelegen voor of na de overtocht met de Ferry naar Ierland

Cons:

Beetje oud Engelse chic. Iets over de datum heen.

Lovely, large spacious hotel in excellent location.
Pros:

The location was wonderful, the food excellent. The staff were helpful and friendly.

Cons:

Somehow we were double booked for one night. For the first night we were in a large spacious room with a 6’ bed. For the next two nights we had a smaller room described as cosy with a normal double bed. We booked a sea view room but there was a very large tree outside the window so hardly sea view.
