Stay here, you won't regret it!
Pros:

For a B&B, it's hotel quality. Room is clean and well appointed, neighbourhood is quiet and suburban but only a 5 minute walk from pubs and restaurants. Breakfast is top class and better than anything you'd get in a 4 star with freshly prepared meals cooked to order.

Cons:

Was a really warm night and there is no air con which is totally normal for Ireland as we don't usually need it, but a first world problem so not a real issue! We kept the window opened and were woken by the sound of the early morning traffic on the street outside.

Pros:

The friendly staff met us at reception. Our room was ready, so we were able to check in early. The breakfast was lovely and had plenty to offer. The train station is literally around the corner with plenty of shops and places to dine.

Cons:

The rooms were a little warm but if you opened the windows there was road noise. However, this was only a minor thing
