Great service and comforts!
Pros:

Great location on the seafront and the staff were lovely from when you walked into reception! Gerry in the bar made our night on Friday with great Guinness and food snack recommendations, and the lovely manager in the bar that served us dinner on Saturday was charming and excellent host.

Cons:

Nothing really.
The only constructive comments I could give is there was alot of furniture and large lamps in the room making it feel a little clustered.

And personally I'm not a fan of bed throws and additional cushions.. I never feel comfortable about when they were last cleaned!

The hotel was one of the more expensive on our Ireland road trip, but it was certainly worth it.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent in terms of the food available, and in terms of the view from the breakfast room. The room was modern, spacious, and clean.
Enjoyed an exceptional meal in the evening.

Cons:

We didn't pay extra for a sea view, and we certainly didn't get one...outside was a wall!

convenient, friendly, comfortable for all ages
Pros:

convenient location to shuttle for cliffs of Moher

Cons:

Website stated the hotel had a free shuttle to cliffs of moher, which is no longer true. Website stated the bus stop for the Galway bus was across the street which is also not true. It is actually a 20 min drive on your own.
