it was alright
Pros:

The staff were lovely and friendly. I enjoyed the pool area and the water was warm. I loved the location of the Hotel on the Salthill Promenade

Cons:

The room's size was fine & big. The bed itself was disappointing. I had booked for a Deluxe Sea View King room, but the bed consisted of 2 Single beds pushed together to go under the kingsize headboard, with 2 single quilts covering each bed. It was not when I was expecting.
The breakfast was not great either (sausages were dry, fruit salad seem to have a lot of apple in it - without a whole lot of other fruit in it).

A good hotel. The only let down was a funny smell in the room
Pros:

Nice breakfast, Pool & gym were good. Food in the hotel bar was nice and there was no noise issues.

Cons:

The room had a slightly funny, possibly damp smell, it was at the front of the hotel, very exposed to the weather and clearly the carpet & curtains had sustained some water damage. It was very windy when we visited and there was a huge draft. New doors and windows required! The staff were quite slow to clean the room, we were out all day and it still wasn't cleaned late in the afternoon.
