Would recommend
Pros:

I stayed in one of the apartments with a full kitchen. It was wonderful. After travelling for so many days the chance to hit up the grocery store steps away and cook a light meal was a treat. There isn’t a lift in the apartment block of the hotel so if you are on the 4 th floor as I was it was a challenge with a suitcase but I’m 64 and did it. Great location!! So close to the train and the park with views of the city. Very happy to recommend the apartments.

Cons:

No lift in the apartment but you’re travelling and it’s to be expected in this part.

It was perfect for me as I was attending a wedding down the street on this occasion. Very comfortable apartment with a great room and a decent kitchenette.

Comfortable with a great location
Pros:

Great area, bedroom really quiet had a great sleep. Hotel is very pretty, waterfall a lovely extra. Lovely staff on reception.

Cons:

Bit chilly in the room but reception gave us a heater and extra blankets. Irish breakfast wasn’t great, really salty bacon, undercooked pudding and sausages. The buffet was much better
