Lovely central overnight in Ennis
Pros:

The location and parking facilities were brilliant. The staff were lovely and so friendly. The bedroom was big and adequate if a little outdated but was perfect for our trip.

Cons:

We just felt it was a little tired looking. The breakfast serving area was a little untidy but the breakfast itself was lovely.
