Soweit OK, aber Pech mit den Aussengeräuchen und der Zimmertemperatur.
Pros:

Günstig gelegen.

Cons:

Bei der Übernachtung von Freitag auf Samstag sehr laute Aussengeräuche von der Strasse und der Gastronomie.
Zimmer war extrem warm/überhitzt. Die Heizungen waren voll aufgedreht.

A Beautiful Gem of a hotel.
Pros:

Beautiful little Gem of a hotel in the centre of Balbrigan. Really good sized rooms/bathroom. Very friendly staff.

Cons:

I think my tv was broken. Only 3 stations would work, the rest had a No Signal notice, but it didn't bother me, no big deal.

nice location , good rooms, friendly staff.
Pros:

room was very good size, everything was clean and tidy. Didnt feel rushed to get out the next morning.

Cons:

i wouldnt say there is anything i didn't like, breakfast was good quality , in most hotels i would normally take scoop of fresh fruit and pour over yogurt and eat, however the fruit was in the skin, so wasn't an option.
