The location, atmosphere, room amenities, swimming pool and the sea view

The coffee machine in the room didn’t work and even though there was a kettle, no coffee was offered except for pods for the machine that didn’t work.

Ok , but think I was single supplement so got the worst room
Pros:

Beautiful by the Irish Sea

Cons:

I had the weirdest room not a view in site. Also thought you could just put your swimmers on in your room and go down to enjoy pool! No you have to dress walk outside and across to fitness arena for Econ the town
