Exactly what we needed and we were very happy to stay there and will again.
Pros:

The room was perfect, bed was comfortable and it had everything we needed. We ordered room service and it was prompt and the food was excellent. Any questions I had were answered thoroughly and our stay was very enjoyable.

Cons:

We couldn't adjust the heat in the room. It was quite warm which made it a little difficult to sleep and the fan was only able to blow out warmer air so it was slightly uncomfortable in that regard but it did not really diminish our positive experience there

Pros:

We had a family room that was on third floor, to the back of the car park for two nights. room was lovely.(double bed and 2 single beds). Bed was a bit hard for me but partner and kids found them okay. Room lots of space, desk and table and two chairs plus hanging space. Lovely bathroom with bath/ shower and rituals toiletries. Tea/coffee making facilities and a fridge. Supermarket next door for snacks/drinks etc.
Bar and grill downstairs didn't visit on this occasion but have previously visited the bar last year when in Ireland recommended by a family member.
Staff are friendly especially the guy who opens the door when coming in.
Car park 10 euros a night which was fine we managed to park at the front of the hotel.

Cons:

Room was a bit warm for us- we had window open all night, not a negative as I don't like heating on at night so personal choice.

The only thing was a let down (not hotel fault) was some other guests next door to our room were a bit noisy on the last night, banging doors and playing music loud so did affect our last night as hardly had any sleep before we had to leave at 6am for the ferry.
