War o.k. für eine Nacht. Würden wir aber nicht nochmal buchen.
Pros:

Zimmer waren modern und sauber.

Cons:

Im Restaurant war der Service nicht besonders freundlich. Essen war mittelmäßig. Unser Zimmer war direkt über dem Restaurant, wir konnten aufgrund von Gerüchen und Lärm das Fenster nicht öffnen.

Ein gelungener Aufenthalt in Waterford
Pros:

Alle Menschen die in diesem Hotel arbeiten sind unfassbar freundlich. Das Zimmer war groß und sauber . Es gab jede Menge Steckdosen( man braucht einen Adapter) Alle Steckdosen waren mit USB C Anschlüssen ausgestattet , für die kein Adapter benötigt wurde. Es gab ein großes Frühstücks Büfett, mit sehr viel Auswahl. Das Parken war kostenfrei. Ein Restaurant und eine Bar mit ziemlich zivilen Preisen befindet sich direkt im Hotel.

Cons:

Das Hotelrestaurant scheint an den Wochenenden sehr beliebt bei Gästen die eine Familienfeier planen. Somit war es abends im Restaurant recht laut und turbulent. Im vorderen Teil befindet sich die Bar, wo es dann deutlich ruhiger war.
