10/10 Family adventure
Pros:

We had a lovely stay over St Brigid's bank holiday. With fresh homemade pancakes for breakfast to a dip and splash in the pool overlooking limerick city.
The seabass for dinner was delicious plus the chocolate cake was scrumicious. Perfect spot to explore the city. Plus spotting the swans with the kids on the river banks. We will be back !!

Pros:

Staff were great.

Cons:

I paid 152e specifically for a room with a view because the photo I was shown was a floor to ceiling window and I got a room with a window sill so high you had to literally stand up next to it to see the view of the river. I was shocked. All we got to see was the creepy green lights that were lighting the building so it looked like we were being visited by aliens the whole night, and that's all we could see from the bed. It was awful. The kettle wasn't even plugged in, we found it in the wardrobe, so we had to take the whole thing out and plug it in on the table, and it was 'instant' coffee which was not good enough for the price of the room. There should have been a coffee machine. We also had to check out at 11am which was so annoying.

It was a total rip off. Don't stay here if you think you will be getting the fake view you are shown whilst booking. The general staff were great though, especially the cleaning staff, they went out of their way. But marketing is misrepresenting what you are being offered.
